Prayagraj is not just any place; it is the Tirtharaj, the King of all Holy Places! The very ground here is blessed. It is at Prayagraj that Lord Brahma himself performed the primordial yajna (sacrifice). Most importantly, Prayagraj is home to the Triveni Sangam – the sacred confluence of Maa Ganga, Maa Yamuna, and the hidden, mystical Maa Saraswati.
Our scriptures, like the Matsya Purana, declare that performing Shraddha and Pind Daan at the Sangam in Prayagraj yields merit (punya) millions of times greater than at other places. Bathing at the Sangam washes away sins, and offerings made here are believed to directly reach the Pitrs, granting them immense satisfaction and facilitating their liberation. The combined power of these three holy rivers makes Pind Daan in Prayagraj extraordinarily potent.
