What you receive
Every offering carries a Sankalp spoken in your name and gotra — that is what makes it yours rather than a generic donation. You are sent a photograph of the offering being made, and from the Pushpa tier upward a short video as well. The Bhog and Maha tiers include prasad couriered to the address you give.
Best days
Offerings at Kashi Vishwanath are traditionally made on Monday, Mahashivratri, Shravan, Pitru Paksha. You can pick a date when ordering; if you leave it blank the pujari performs it on the next auspicious day.
