Have you ever wondered why Hindu traditions place so much importance on Amavasya, Sankranti, and Pitru-related rituals? According to many traditional beliefs, ancestors, or Pitru, continue to bless their descendants through remembrance, prayers, and acts of charity. Some traditions even say there are three special occasions when ancestors symbolically visit their families, each with a different purpose. Whether taken literally or spiritually, these beliefs have shaped Hindu customs for centuries and continue to inspire devotion today.
