Pitru Paksha is a sacred time to honour our ancestors and seek their blessings. By following these do's and don'ts, we can show our respect and love towards our departed loved ones.
Ekadashi Shraddha is also important from an environmental perspective as it helps promote eco-friendly practices such as using natural materials for performing rituals and avoiding consumption of non-renewable resources such as electricity for lighting diyas.
The period of Pitru Paksha is considered to be one of the most sacred and revered times in India. It is believed that during this period, the souls of our departed ancestors visit us and our offerings are a way to appease them and honour their memories.
The rituals of Pitru Paksha are observed over fifteen days and involve performing spiritual ceremonies and providing food offerings to the deceased. These rituals are believed to help the departed souls attain ‘moksha’ or liberation from the cycle of life and death.
