Varanasi, also known as Kashi, is the holy residence of Lord Shiva and Parvati, Hinduism’s mother goddess, is described in Hindu sacred scriptures. Pind Daan, a Hindu rite for the dearly departed and ancestors is one of the most important religious events held along the banks of the sacred Ganga.

Performing Pind daan in Varanasi has many benefits. It is said if pind daan is performed here then via the holy river Ganga, the pinds reach directly to the ancestors and help them in travelling in the afterlife. Varanasi or Kashi is believed to be the Udar (Stomach) of Lord Vishnu ji. Hence, the blessings of Lord Vishnu are also received when pind daan is done in Varanasi.

Since Varanasi is close to the heart of Lord Shiva and he is believed to be living in Varanasi, performing last rites like asthi visarjan, Pind daan and Shradh here is very helpful to the departed soul to attain Salvation.
