MONEY, BANKS AND A BIG SECRET

W hen we do online shopping.. We select our preferences, the website or mobile app shows us the products matching our choice. It always shows the products which are in its inventory, which already exist.  Otherwise it shows OUT OF STOCK . Logical , isn't it !! We get showed what's available. But why don't we use the same logic and question the banks.

PITRU PAKSHA This  year, it started on 1st September 2020 and will end on 17th September 2020. During this 16 day lunar period we should pay homage to our Ancestors ( Pitris ), especially through food offering. But why?? ---What is the essence of offering food to our Pitris ?? ---Who are our Pitri ?? ---Where do they reside ?? ---Why do we feed Raven (black crow) in order to offer food to our Pitri ?? ---Why we should not buy anything new during this Pitri paksh period ?? ---Why should our Pitri become angry if we don't offer them homage ?? ---And why during these 16 days only, whats special ?? HERE in this post, I would like to share the esoteric meaning of this whole ritual, the logic behind this exercise and its importance.

The boat becomes free to carry two new people and this way people move fro
