Pushkar, situated in the heart of Rajasthan, is one of the most revered places in India for performing Pind Daan – a significant Hindu ritual conducted for the peace and salvation (mukti) of ancestral souls. It is believed that Lord Rama himself performed Pind Daan in Pushkar for his ancestors.
Mythological Significance:
Pushkar is believed to have been created by Lord Brahma when he dropped a lotus flower on Earth. This gave rise to the sacred Pushkar Lake, also known as Pushkar Sarovar.
Divine Connection:
Lord Rama performed Shraddha rituals at Pushkar to liberate his ancestors. This tradition continues with millions visiting every year for Pind Daan.
52 Holy Ghats:
Pushkar Lake has 52 ghats, where devotees perform Pind Daan with faith. Among them, Brahma Ghat is considered the most powerful – giving ten times the spiritual merit.
Belief in Moksha (Liberation):
Performing Pind Daan in Pushkar is said to provide eternal peace to ancestors’ souls and help them attain moksha – release from the cycle of rebirth.
Pind Daan (पिंड दान): Symbolic rice balls offered to ancestors to satisfy and liberate their souls.
Shraddha Karma (श्राद्ध कर्म): Ceremonies held to honor and remember the departed.
Narayan Bali & Tripindi Shraddha: Specific rituals for relieving souls affected by untimely or unnatural deaths.
Asthi Visarjan: Immersion of ashes in holy waters for spiritual purification.
In Hinduism, death is not the end, but a passage. The soul journeys forward, and proper rituals help in:
Releasing the soul from earthly bondage
Completing the mourning process for the family
Honoring the Vedic traditions and scriptures
Bringing peace and closure to both the living and the departed
The Pind is a symbolic rice ball made of rice, sesame seeds, wheat flour, honey, and milk. Out of the seven pinds offered, one is for the deceased, and the rest for the ancestors. These are offered with chants by experienced Brahmin Pandits.
