The Vedic calendar indicates that Margashirsha Amavasya will occur on december 1, 2024. Devotees meditate and pray on this day, as well as bathe in holy waterways like the Ganges.
 
Rituals such as pind daan (ceremonial offerings) and tarpan (offering to ancestors) are also carried out. On Margashirsha Amavasya, worship and sacrifice are thought to alleviate one's ancestral debt (pitru dosh). The family lineage's riches and success are increased by the blessings of the ancestors. Giving on this auspicious day is also advised by the scriptures. Take a holy bath and meditate first thing in the morning to get blessings from Lord Vishnu. After that, follow the rites to worship Lord shiva and Lord vishnu with utmost devotion. Once the ancestral sacrifices are finished, feed the poor and Brahmins. Lastly, make donations based on your financial situation. This is what you can provide.
