Pind Daan in Varanasi – Attaining Moksha on the Sacred Land of Kashi

Varanasi, also known as Kashi, is regarded as the eternal city where life and death find divine balance. Performing Pind Daan in Varanasi is believed to grant Moksha (liberation) to departed souls, freeing them from the cycle of birth and rebirth. Among the various sacred locations, Pisachmochan Kund, also known as Vimal Teerth, holds special spiritual significance for this sacred ritual.

Pisachmochan Kund – The Divine Site of Liberation

One of the most revered sites for Pind Daan in Varanasi is Pisachmochan Kund, a place where countless souls are believed to have found peace. The name itself means “liberation from evil spirits,” and it is said that by performing rituals here, the souls of the deceased attain peace and freedom from any lingering earthly attachments.

Other Prominent Pind Daan Locations in Varanasi

• Manikarnika Ghat – one of the holiest cremation grounds

• Assi Ghat

• Dashashwamedh Ghat

Each of these sites holds immense religious significance and is chosen according to family traditions or priestly guidance.

The Legend – When Lord Shiva Stopped the Mighty Ganga

According to sacred legends, when the Ganga River flowed towards Kashi with great force, Lord Shiva, the eternal protector of Kashi, struck his Trishul (trident) into the ground to slow the river’s intensity. This divine act ensured that the holy city remained calm and balanced despite the river’s power.

It is also believed that anyone who dies in Kashi or whose last rites are performed here is granted instant liberation (Moksha). Even if the person passes away elsewhere, the immersion of their ashes in the holy Ganges at Varanasi can ensure their path to salvation.
