Mahalaya Amavasya Today: Pitru Paksha Ends With Rituals

Mahalaya Paksha concludes today with Amavasya, the final day of the 15-day period dedicated to honouring ancestors. Devotees perform Tarpanam with sesame seeds and water, donate food, and feed cows to seek ancestral blessings. Those unaware of their ancestors' death dates can perform rituals today. Large gatherings are now at Srisailam's Pathala Ganga.
