Prayagraj - Pind Daan
About
Pind Daan is a ritual performed by offering prayers to the ancestors or the soul. The puja is an important part of Hindu funeral rites and is done to have a peaceful journey of the departed soul. This ritual is mostly performed on Pitru Paksha or death anniversary. Doing this puja in Prayagraj is auspicious.
At first, Sankalp is taken in the name of the devotees.
