Pind daan
Pind Daan is a sacred Hindu ritual performed to offer gratitude and peace to one’s ancestors (Pitru). It is believed that by offering pind (rice balls), water, and prayers, the souls of departed ancestors attain moksha and are freed from unresolved earthly bonds. Pind Daan is usually performed at spiritually powerful places associated with salvation and liberation.
Pind Daan in Gaya
Considered the most significant, as Lord Vishnu’s footprints at Vishnupad Temple make it the ultimate place for ancestral liberation.
Pind Daan in Haridwar
Performed on the banks of the holy Ganga, where offering pind helps ancestors attain peace through the purifying power of the river.
Pind Daan in Varanasi (Kashi)
Holds special importance because dying or performing rites here is believed to grant instant liberation.
Pind Daan in Prayagraj
Triveni Sangam combines the energies of Ganga, Yamuna, and Saraswati, making it highly auspicious for Pitru Shanti.
Fasting Guidelines
