About Pitru Paksh Shraddh
- It involves oblations of water and rites to the deceased of three-preceding generations by calling upon their names.
- The present generation owes their existence to the previous generations and this debt is cleared through propitiation to them on these days.
- Hindus observe the 15-day period religiously by taking bath thrice, partial fasting, feeding the Brahmins, and donating to the poor and needy.
- It is believed whatever is given as charity would directly reach the ancestors and immense merit would be accrued
Importance of Pitru Paksha
- Rites performed for each of the 15 days of the fortnight are considered important and considered equal to that being performed in holy places like Gaya.
- Offerings made to the Pitrus during this fortnight reach them directly as ordained by Lord Yama.
- Offerings reach all departed souls, whether they are directly related to those offering them or not.
- Those ancestors who had lost their lives in an unnatural manner or by accident or suicide would also be able to get the offerings which would not be possible at other times.
- Those whose death dates are not known and annual rites cannot be performed too will benefit by these offerings.
- Thila or sesame seeds tarpana and pinda pradhana or rice ball offerings are made to departed ancestors during the fortnight.
- The food offerings reach the dead through the rays of the sun
