This Pitru Paksha Feed a Sadhu Honour Your Ancestors 

 Ann daan is Maha daan. Pitru Seva is Param Dharma. 


Every year during Pitru Paksha, the sacred fortnight arrives when the souls of our ancestors descend closer to us. The scriptures say “Offerings made with devotion during this time reach the Pitrs directly, bringing peace to their souls and blessings to future generations.
But who receives these offerings on our behalf?
It is the wandering ascetics the Sadhus who have renounced family, wealth, and comforts, living only for dharma. During Pitru Paksha, feeding a Sadhu is believed to be equal to offering food to your ancestors themselves.
Why Your Seva Matters
Across pilgrimage sites like Badrinath, Gangotri, Uttarkashi, and Rishikesh, thousands of Sadhus gather in penance during Pitru Paksha.
They walk barefoot across mountains and rivers.
They live without money, food, or shelter.
They rely entirely on the daan of devotees to survive.
When you feed a Sadhu, you are not just giving food you are offering directly to your ancestors and keeping alive Sanatan dharma’s sacred cycle of Shraddha and Seva.


How You Can Offer Your Seva
