Serving Humanity Through Dharma, Seva and Compassion
Sri Shiva Shanmukha Charitable Trust is dedicated to spiritual service, charitable activities, Annadanam, Ghat Seva, temple preservation and support for devotees. Through various seva schemes, the Trust seeks to preserve Sanatana Dharma while serving society through compassion, devotion and selfless service.
Daily Annadanam will be performed in the sacred city of Varanasi, serving pilgrims, yatris, devotees and the needy. Our Annadanam Seva is offered with the belief that feeding the hungry is one of the highest forms of worship and charity.
We offer Life-Long Annadanam, 12-Year Annadanam and Special Day Annadanam schemes where donors may sponsor meals in the name of family members, ancestors, loved ones or on important occasions.
We provide Annadanam to yatris, devotees and underprivileged individuals with the objective of serving humanity through selfless charity and devotion.
Annadanam Services are scheduled to commence from August 2026.
Ghat Seva is the primary service activity of Sri Shiva Shanmukha Charitable Trust and is currently being performed on a regular basis at the sacred Ganga Ghats of Varanasi.
Through this initiative, food is distributed daily to the poor, homeless, elderly, labourers, pilgrims and those in need. This service reflects our commitment towards compassion, dignity and selfless service.
Every contribution towards Ghat Seva directly supports feeding individuals who depend upon such assistance for their daily sustenance and well-being.
Ghat Seva is currently active and being performed regularly.
Rudrabhishekam is one of the most sacred forms of worship offered to Lord Shiva for peace, prosperity, health, spiritual growth and the removal of obstacles from life.
We offer Monthly, Yearly and Special Occasion Rudrabhishekam Seva schemes, allowing devotees to participate in this powerful Vedic ritual in their own name or on behalf of family members and loved ones.
Every Rudrabhishekam is performed with devotion and according to traditional Vedic practices by qualified priests in the sacred city of Varanasi.
As part of our commitment towards preserving sacred heritage, 80% of the donations received towards Rudrabhishekam Seva are utilized for the maintenance, preservation and renovation of the historic Kali Mandir located near IP Vijaya Mall, Varanasi.
Varanasi has been a sacred destination for performing ancestral rites for centuries. The Trust facilitates important rituals such as Pindapradanam, Asthi Nimarjanam, Tarpanam and other Pitru Karyas according to traditional Vedic procedures.
These rituals are performed with devotion and reverence for the spiritual peace, liberation and well-being of departed souls.
Our mission extends beyond serving families. For departed souls who have no heirs, no family support or no one available to perform their final rites, the Trust undertakes these sacred responsibilities with utmost devotion and respect.
We believe that every soul deserves dignity, remembrance and spiritual peace. Therefore such rituals are performed by treating the departed soul as a member of our own family and offering prayers for their eternal well-being.
The Trust actively supports the preservation, maintenance and renovation of ancient temples and sacred places of worship.
Many traditional temples face financial challenges in maintaining daily rituals, infrastructure and restoration works. Through the support of devotees and donors, the Trust seeks to protect these sacred institutions and preserve Sanatana Dharma.
Special emphasis is given to protecting traditional temples and safeguarding spiritual heritage for future generations.
Sri Shiva Shanmukha Charitable Trust undertakes various charitable and community welfare initiatives aimed at serving society through compassion and selfless service.
Activities include food distribution, support to needy individuals, assistance during religious gatherings and community welfare programmes that benefit underprivileged sections of society.
Our objective is to serve humanity without discrimination while promoting dignity, kindness and social responsibility.
