The Garud Puran is one of the 18 Mahapuranas, performed as a conversation between Lord Vishnu and his bird-vehicle, Garuda. Traditionally, this is chanted over the 13-days of mourning following a death.
The path specifically describes the mysteries of death, unlike other scriptures, the journey of the soul after leaving the body, and the nature of the afterlife. This is conducted to bless the departed soul and to help the surviving family know the cycle of birth and rebirth, ultimately getting mental peace.

The period following the departure of loved ones in Vedic tradition is a time for deep reflection and spiritual support.
The Garud Puran path acts as a bridge between the physical and spiritual realms, giving a roadmap for the soul’s journey while giving the grieving family the knowledge to navigate the loss.
Scheduling a Garud Puran path needs a calm environment and a disciplined schedule. These are the traditional flows of service:
The path starts with preparing a small wooden pedestal where the sacred scripture is kept. A lamp is lit to show the divine existence of lord vishnu.
The family takes a formal vow, showing the merit of reading to the ancestors to assure their smooth journey into the ancestral realm.
A certified pandit chants the chapters daily, often in the afternoon. The family sits together, as hearing the path is believed meritorious for both the living and the dead.
Our pandits give a detailed summary of each chapter, describing the importance of Pind daan and the effect on one’s karma in the afterlife journey.
During each chapter, rituals are done to show the soul’s safety crossing the celestial river. On the final day, a concluding prayer is offered to receive forgiveness for any shortcomings and pray for eternal peace of lineage.
Vedic Reference: The marriage ceremony is primarily based on the Vivaha Sukta from the Rigveda (Book 10, Hymn 85), which describes the divine marriage of Surya (daughter of the Sun) and is considered the prototype of all Hindu marriages.

This comprehensive guide has been prepared by our team of senior Vedic scholars with combined experience of over 100 years in performing Garud Puran Path. All information has been cross-verified with authentic Vedic texts and approved by our editorial board.
Sources: Rigveda Samhita, Grihya Sutras, Dharmashastra texts, and consultations with scholars from Banaras Hindu University and Rashtriya Sanskrit Sansthan. All traditional knowledge shared with respect to copyright and intellectual property of ancient scriptures.
The chanting typically begins on the 4th day after the passing and completes on the 12th or 13th day. Our qualified pandit is available to begin the path exactly when your family tradition needs.
The mantras are originally in Sanskrit, but the explanation can be shared in your native language for better understanding. We offer multilingual pandits to explain the path in your preferred language.
You are needed to arrange a lamp, incense sticks, and a clean seating space. Our team also helps you with the samagri list on booking or even arranges for a complete kit to be delivered.
Vedically, a sattvic lifestyle should be followed. Our priests give a guidance call before starting to describe the dos and don’ts of the mourning time as per the scriptures.
As the main performer should be present throughout the path, other family members can join according to their convenience. Also, our pandits can adjust the timing of the path to align with your family’s particular needs during this tough time.
