Samvatsrikam is a type of Shradh which is performed around the 1st death anniversary of the deceased souls. It is a three days ceremony concerning various rituals of Unabdikam, Samvatsaravimoka, and Abdikam. It is believed that Death anniversary rituals performed in Varanasi bring peace to the deceased soul.

Unabdikam is a Shradh performed two days before Abdikam in Varanasi. 

Samvatsrikam or Samvatsaravimoka is the Shradh performed one day before Abdikam. Abdikam is performed on the tithi of departure.

Thus, all the sixteen Masikams with Abdikam should be performed. These all are eternal duties which should not be omitted.

After performing these Sraddhams, Pratisamvatsarikam should also be performed in each year. In case, if someone is not capable to perform all these Sraddhams due to some unavoidable conditions or incapability, he can then perform at least three Sraddhams from the day of Unabdikam to Abdikam. He has to include all omitted Sraddham on the day of Unabdikam.

Every year many Death Anniversary Rituals are performed in Varanasi because of the religious importance of this city. Tirth Kshetra Purohit provides the best Purohit services in Varanasi which will ensure that you get to perform all the rituals properly.
