Amavasya Tarpanam holds significance for paying respects to one's ancestors (pitru), starting from their own parents up to 3 generations, seeking their blessings, and paying respects to departed souls.
The Amavasya Tarpanam includes chanting prayers for the departed and appeasing their souls offering water , taking their names in the correct sequence and simultaneously offering libations with black sesame seeds (tarpanam) to quench their thirst.
