Pitru Paksha Puja is a sacred Hindu ritual performed to honor and pay respects to one's ancestors during the Pitru Paksha period, a fortnight dedicated to ancestral remembrance. Through offerings, prayers, and Shradh ceremonies, devotees seek the blessings of their forefathers for peace, prosperity, and liberation of their souls. This puja helps balance ancestral karma and strengthens the spiritual connection between the living and the departed, promoting harmony and blessings for future generations. The rituals are believed to bring peace to the departed souls and ensure the well-being of the family.
