Pind Daan in Gaya Ji has special importance because this place is considered to be the highest pilgrimage for Pitru Moksha. By performing Pind Daan here, ancestors get salvation and the family gets freedom from Pitru Dosha. Places like Vishnupad Temple, Akshayvat and Falgu River are considered extremely holy for this ritual.
Vishnupad Temple in Gaya is a sacred and ancient Hindu temple situated on the banks of the Falgu River. The temple is dedicated to Lord Vishnu and is built around the sacred Dharmashila — a holy rock that bears a 40-centimeter footprint believed to be that of Lord Vishnu. It is said that at this very spot, Lord Vishnu subdued the demon Gayasura centuries ago.
This magnificent octagonal temple was reconstructed in 1787 by Maharani Ahilyabai Holkar. The temple features impressive granite architecture, intricately carved pillars, and a golden flag atop its towering spire.
Vishnupad Temple is considered one of the most revered sites for performing Pind Daan, Tarpan, and Shraddha rituals, especially during the Pitru Paksha period. It is believed that rituals performed here bring peace to ancestral souls and grant them moksha (liberation).

Perform the sacred ritual of Pitru Moksha with devotion
Gaya Ji is named after a demon named Gayasur, who had attained special powers through severe penance. For the welfare of the people, Lord Vishnu placed his foot on Gayasur and granted him salvation. It is believed that where the Lord's foot fell, the Vishnupad temple was established, and Gayasur's body turned into the mountain ranges of Gaya. That is why Gaya is called Pitru Moksha Tirtha.
