Where is Matru Gaya Teerth Kshetra?

Matru Gaya Teerth kshetra in Sidhpur, Gujarat has a rich past. The importance of Matru Gaya has been mentioned in Rigveda. The region was famous for the lake Bindu Sarovar. It is one of the five important lakes of ancient India. Also, Sage Kapilacharya brought out the importance of Sankhyayog and through this, he was able to give Moksha (salvation) to his mother Devahuti. Hence, it is considered very auspicious to offer ‘Pinddaan’ to deceased mothers by their sons at Matru Gaya. Even those who have not performed any Shradh to the deceased mother in their life time can perform ‘Matru Gaya Shradh’ and help achieve the salvation.

Another belief is that, Siddhpur also known as “Sri Sthal” during Vedic period was a confluence of the sacred rivers Ganga and Saraswati.
