Good Morning all...

September 8, 2025 10:38pm CST
I am back to my normal routine.I woke up at 5.30am spent some time in gardening.I got some flowers for our ancestors. These 15days were special for us.called mahalay paksha..We have to perform pitru karma rituals.Do pray.we offer diya,doop, flowers and tila tarpan to our ancestors.ganesh is our pratham poojya after ganesh dwitiya poojya are our ancestors for these 15days.on their name we offer food dialy to the needy.Feed cows and offer some food to brahmins respectfully.So that we believe their soul rests in peace. How many of you know about this?

I've never heard of any of this but it's easily possible my little brother in India calls these things something else. vanny has never mentioned these things to me, either, unless she also calls them something else.

We are so sentimental to honour our ancesters who left us Good name, Their Genes for our generations.

Prathama pujya ganesh.dwitiya pujya our pitru deva.there after comes goddess durga's dussehra the order goes like that.All know these festivals but only few know pitru paksh rituals in between.we avoid non veg onion and garlic these 15days.those who comes to our home these 15days will be honoured as our ancesters. My toughest thing to quit these 15days is biting nails.I have to stop this.but trying hard

In India Many people did not follow it and may never have idea.. our ancesters were so particularly celebrated every ocassion.As generations passed on those traditions disappeared
