Can Pind Daan be done for ancestors whose death dates are unknown?
- Yes, Vedic scriptures allow and encourage Pind Daan for unknown ancestors or forgotten souls.
- The ritual is then performed under the title “Sarva Pitru”, invoking peace for all ancestral souls in the lineage.
- This is especially beneficial during Sarvapitri Amavasya, the last day of Pitru Paksha, which covers all departed souls.
