Pitri Tarpan / Sidha Daan

Pitri Tarpan is a Hindu ritual performed to offer water, food, and prayers to ancestral spirits (Pitris) to express gratitude and seek their blessings. Sidha Daan involves giving specific donations to Brahmins or the needy for the peace and salvation of departed souls. These ceremonies are typically conducted during Pitru Paksha or special occasions to honor ancestors and bring prosperity to the family.
