Pitri Shraaddha is a Hindu ritual performed to honor and pay respects to deceased ancestors (Pitris). It involves offering food, water, and prayers to the departed souls, ensuring their peace and well-being in the afterlife. This ritual is typically performed during Pitru Paksha, a specific period dedicated to ancestors, but can also be done on the death anniversary of family members. It is believed to bring blessings, remove ancestral debts, and promote prosperity in the family.
