It is believed that if the ancestors are happy, then there is happiness, wealth and prosperity in the family. At the same time, due to Pitra Dosha, obstacles, diseases and mental stress can also arise in life, which can be prevented through shraddha and tarpan.
Measures to please fathers:

In the name of ancestors, provide food to a needy, poor or Brahmin by giving food, clothes, and Dakshina. Bid them respectfully.
2. Offer water on the Peepal tree:
Offer water under the peepal tree daily, add Ganga water, black sesame, axhat and flowers. This brings peace to the soul of the ancestors.
