Kurukshetra
Lord Vishnu’s holy home is Kurukshetra, notably Sannihit Sarovar. Sannihit Sarovar is a well-known landmark on Pehowa Road, three kilometres from Kurukshetra. If the Shraadh pooja is performed during a solar eclipse, and devotees bathe in the pond, they will receive the blessings conferred on a thousand Ashwamedh sacrifices, according to Hindu sacred writings.
On the day of Amavasya, or eclipse, thousands of tirthas congregate at this holy site to perform rituals and hear about their ancestors from ancient pandits. Similarly, people come from all across India and the world to do the Asthi Visarjan ceremony for the dearly departed relatives and to offer Shraadh pooja for their ancestors.
