Pind Daan at Kumbh Mela is a sacred ritual to honour and appease one’s ancestors. The offering consists of rice balls (pind), sesame seeds, and other sacred items placed near the sacred river.

This act symbolizes sustenance for the departed’s souls and ensures their peace in the afterlife. Conducted during Kumbh Mela at the Triveni Sangam, Pind Daan is especially significant as the spiritual environment enhances the ritual’s benefits, granting ancestral blessings and harmonizing family life.
