How does performing Shradh in Prayagraj differ in significance or procedure from Gaya or Varanasi?

While all three (Gaya, Varanasi/Kashi, Prayagraj) are supreme Tirthas for Shradh, they have nuances:

  • Gaya: Considered the primary and most powerful place specifically for Pind Daan (known as Gaya Shradh). It’s believed Lord Vishnu himself is present here as Gadadhar, directly accepting the Pindas. Liberation (Moksha) for ancestors is strongly associated with rites at Gaya, especially at Vishnupad Temple and Falgu River.
  • Varanasi (Kashi): The city of Lord Shiva, focuses on overall Moksha (liberation from the cycle of birth and death) for souls who die here or whose final rites/Shradh are performed here, particularly Pind Daan/Tarpan on the Ganga Ghats like Manikarnika. The emphasis is on liberation through Shiva’s grace.
  • Prayagraj: The Tirtharaj, emphasizes the immense merit gained by performing Shradh at the Triveni Sangam. The confluence of the three holy rivers provides unique power for satisfying ancestors (Pitru Tripti) and washing away sins of both ancestors and descendants. It’s highly effective for general Shradh, Pitru Dosh remedies, and gaining blessings for family well-being.
