Kapal Mochan or Gopal Mochan is an ancient place of pilgrimage for both Hindus and Sikhs. Covered by the dense forests of Kalesar, Kapal Mochan is a natural hollow, near the bank of the Saraswati river , dammed up to form a Kund (pool or tank). Also called 'Rinmochan', the pool is known as the 'destroyer of all sins'. It is mentioned numerous times in the Hindu classics the Mahabharata and the Puranas. Kapal Mochan has been described as famous in all the three mythological worlds. More than 7 Lakhs of Sikhs visit the historic Gurdwara Kapal Mochan every year on Kartik Purnima (in November) for a dip in the holy sarovars of the village. Devotees believe that by taking a dip in the sacred tank one rids themselves of all sins. * This is believed to be the spot that Lord Shiva washed away his sin of having killed a Brahman. * Rama too is came here to wash away his sin of having killed Ravanna. * The Panj Pandava brothers are also said to have come here to wash their weapons and bathed to wash away their sins for having killed their cousins at Kurukshetra.
