Homa Srardham
Ancestral remembrance through a fire observance
Homa Srardham is an ancestral observance that includes a sacred fire ritual under the priest’s guidance. Families prepare the prescribed offerings as an expression of remembrance, gratitude and continuity.
The occasion calls for care with the details, not an elaborate display. Set aside the materials clearly, confirm the sequence and allow the family to remain attentive to the remembrance at its centre.
Confirm your final list, quantities and regional customs with your priest, including what the venue supplies. These products are sold individually, not as a complete ceremony kit.

Homa Srardham: meaning & preparation
Why is black til listed separately?
The checklist specifically requests 100 g of black sesame seeds. Sesame lamp oil and other grains do not meet that requirement.
Can the usual festive shopping list be used?
No. This list has particular requirements including black til, moong dal, raw bananas and aluminium trays. It should be prepared separately from celebratory puja lists.
How do we choose quantities and pack sizes?
Follow the quantities listed for this ceremony. Products are sold as retail packs: measure the ceremony quantity from the pack and keep any remainder for later use. Ask the priest to clarify any quantity that the list leaves unspecified.
Do we need to buy every product shown?
No. Some cards offer alternatives, such as coconut types or lamp oils. Choose the option your priest requests, reuse suitable items you own and avoid buying every alternative.
Does this page include everything for the ceremony?
It includes matched products from our catalog and a separate list of requirements to arrange elsewhere. Review both sections and confirm any regional additions with the priest.
How should we organise the items on the day?
Separate powders, lamp supplies, flowers, offerings and vessels before the priest arrives. Keep food offerings separate from products intended only for worship, and retain the checklist for a final count.
