Mythological legend
According to Hindu Mythology
Bhagwan Shree Ram performed Pind Daan for his father Dashrath Ji here at Pushkar the incident goes like this-
When Raam arrived in Atri Rishi's Aashram, He asked him - "Bhagavan, Which is that place where one does not have to tolerate the separation of his dear people? If there is such a place, please tell me." Atri Muni said - "There is one place established by my father [Atri was Brahmaa Jee's son], that is Pushkar. You go there and satisfy your father Dasharath by offering him Pind-Daan. This Teerth stays till Pralaya (deluge) occurs, thus Brahmaa Jee says."
Raam arrived in Pushkar, There He took bath in Madhyam Pushkar and did Tarpan for His ancestors. The then Maarkandeya Muni came there. Seeing him Raam greeted him and said - "I am Raam, Dashrath's son. I have come here at Maharshi Atri's advice to see -Viyogaa named pond. Please tell me where is that place?" Maarkandeya said - "If you will go a little further you will see the A-Viyogaa pond. One meets everybody there whether he or she is in this Lok or in other Lok."
Hearing this Raam remembered His father Dasharath, Bharat, Shatrughn, mothers and people of Ayodhyaa. In the meantime evening set in so He did Sandhyaa there and slept there. When the last leg of night was passing, Raam dreamed Himself with others in Ayodhyaa. Lakshman and Seetaa also saw Raam in the same guise. When they got up in the morning they told everything to Muni. Muni said - "This all was truth. But if you see a dead person in dream, you should perform Shraaddh for him. You have already had the separation from your father, now you are separated from your mothers and Bharat too for 14 years. We six Braahman - Jamadagni, Bharadwaaj, Lomash, Devaraat, Shameek and myself are here to perform Shraaddh for your ancestors, so do that.
Raam sent Lakshman to bring fruits for Shraadh - tangerine, jackfruit, sweet Bel, Singhaadaa, and other seasonal fruits. Lakshman brought all things and Jaanakee cooked the food. Raam also took bath in A-Viyogaa pond and waited for Muni to come there.
In afternoon all gathered and performed Shraaddh. Seeing Muni coming there Jaanakee hid behind a bush. Raam fed the Braahman and completed the process of Shraaddh. Later Raam asked Seetaa that why did She hide behind the bush? She said - "What I saw, I tell you now. As you pronounced the names, Mahaaraaj came here along with two other persons who were like him. They all were together with Braahman's body. I saw Pitar in Braahman's body parts so I felt shy and hid behind the bush. How could I stand in front of Mahaaraaj?" Raam got very pleased hearing this. All took food and passed the night there only.
Next day they arrived at Jyeshth Pushkar, as Raghunaath stood in the east of Pushkar, He heard a Devdoot saying - "Stay here for some time more, because this Teerth is very difficult to get. You have to serve Devtaa's purpose." Raam said to Lakshman - "Brahmaa Jee has obliged us. I wish to live here for a month and observe a Vrat to cleanse my body. After a month they came to Maryaadaa Parvat where Shiv's temple existed. He prayed Shiv there. Shiv Jee appeared before Him and blessed Him.
It is thus believed that whoever does Pind-Daan at Pushkar, goes to Swarg riding in a Vimaan (airplane) with swans. Brahmaa has appointed Vasu, Rudra and Aaditya there to take Pind-Daan. Whatever Pitar related Karm is done there its fruit is eternal. Pitar bless them with good living means.
