Theertha Vidhi at Gaya Kshethra (Significance of Gaya Sraaddha) Sri Vishnu Paada temple at Gaya Kshethra is one of the greatest and the most sacred temples dedicated to Lord Maha Vishnu and also the most sacred site for performing sacred rites to the ancestors (departed souls). Lord Maha Vishnu’s foot print stamped on a solid rock called Dharmashila is the object of worship here. The foot print is said to be 16 inches long and 6 inches wide with the lotus foot of the Lord in an octagonal basin is the central point of attraction in the temple. The foot print marks the acts of Lord Vishnu subduing the demon Gayaasura by placing his foot on his chest. Vishnu Paada in the centre of the Vishnupaada temple is regarded as the meeting point of heaven, earth and hell. bhargavasarma.blogspot/2009/03/theertha-vidhi-at-gaya-kshetra.html
