Rameshwaram is a holy place and one of the Chardhams. Asthis of the departed soul is immersed in the holy Agniteertham or near Dhanushkodi. As this offered in the holy waters will help the soul of the departed attain freedom from the cycle of rebirth, thereby achieving peace. Asthi Visarjan at Rameshwaram is a really very important religious process. The meaning of Asthi is the leftover bone or some collected ashes of dead people. After the last rites are performed the remains of the dead person are collected, these are mostly tied in a piece of cloth. In the end, the immersed ashes will flow in quiet water like a river. This overall process of immersion is called “Asthi visarjan”.

Asthi Visarjan should always be performed in a prescribed manner as specified in our scriptures. The soul feels hurt if the Asthi Visarjan is not performed as specified in the holy books.

The Asthis are collected either on the day of cremation or on the 3rd, 7th or 9th day and are immersed in flowing water before the 10th day. It is better to collect asthi on the 3rd day following cremation rites.
