Pind Daan Puja is a traditional Hindu ritual for the peace and freedom of dead ancestors' souls. That ritual helps souls achieve moksha (freedom from the cycle of rebirth). It can also be performed on specific tithi (dates), such as Amavasya (no moon day) or during Shradh. To ensure a smooth Pind Daan puja call us at 08069266025 for guidance and support.

Pind Daan Puja Vidhi
First, take a bath and wear clean clothes. Then, gather what you need. Pray to God, especially Lord Ganesha. Make small balls (pindas) with barley flour, rice, sesame seeds, ghee, honey and milk. Put these on a plate or piece of grass, offering them to your ancestors while praying. Use water with sesame seeds while chanting your ancestors' names: light incense and kapoor for aarti. Finally, distribute the prepared food and fruits to your family and Brahmins.
