About Vastra Dana
Vastra Dana is among the highest acts of dharmic merit (mahapunya) in Sanatana Dharma — sacred cloth donation to brahmanas, suvasinis, or needy. A sacred Vastra Dana — donation of new cloth to brahmanas, suvasinis, or needy — performed for prosperity, comfort, and pitru-shanti. The seva is performed with sankalpa, mantras, and dakshina to the recipient as an offering. Gopuja arranges the complete Vastra Dana on your behalf in Bangalore, connecting you to authentic patras (qualified recipients) and following the prescribed vidhi.
When to Perform
Vastra Dana is performed on Amavasya, Pournami, eclipses, Ekadashi, parents' shraddha days, birthdays, or as a sankalpa during major life transitions. Our pandits guide the family on the most meritorious tithi for the specific dana.
