Description
Maheshwara Puja, Hinduism’s most ancient ritual, is offered in the remembrance of a person who is no more to complete any incompletions you might have with them. It is offered so that the departed soul can be liberated in the presence of The Avatar, where His Divine Holiness blesses the ancestors to attain enlightenment and offer them “Pinda” or food for the journey to their enlightenment. The most significant part of the Maheshwara Puja is the offering of food to the Master along with His monastic disciples. Offering food to the Master is equal to feeding ten thousand hungry people. The best place on Planet Earth to give “Pinda Tharpana” (food for the departed souls, completion with living and those who left the body) is the stomach of a sannyasi. That is, the Jataraagni (digestive fire), the hunger fire of a sannyasi is the best fire into which you can offer the Pinda Tharpana. The Shraaddha (ritual offering to departed souls), reaches the Pithrus (departed ancestors) directly. It is a thousand times greater than offering any “Shraaddha”, any “Pinda”, in any river, any water-body, any lake, any holy land, any holy place.
