How can I show gratitude to my ancestors and family lineage?
Gratitude to ancestors at Gaya ji
Offering pind daan (rites for ancestors) at Gaya ji is a way to show gratitude to your ancestors and resolve to keep alive the sanskar (values) still alive in you. However much name or wealth you earn, if you have done nothing for the family you were born into, you have done nothing at all.
By showing gratitude toward our ancestors, we resolve that the values (sanskar) that are still alive within us stay alive.
