Description:
ceremony or ritual conducted in remembers of the people who have dead.
in pic, there is one idol of Bootha, sticks symbolizing gods mahadeshwara and siddapaji (regional gods), each symbol of gods are brought by four different people, called as Dasaya, Jogayya, Madappa and siddapaji. this four people are worshipers of those regional gods mentioned above. The ritual is also done in other forms given different names, in the same regional area. different caste people call it in different names.
The belief is that if present generation serves or worship or respects through conducting poojas, there generation would be safe from practices of black magics n problem from there ancestors.
there is lots of symbolic representation of gods, four people identified as regioanl gods, there visit would be blessings to the family

nice one, but it would be helpful if u give much more details. i have some doubts.:
1. are those names "Dasaya, Jogayya, Madappa and Siddapaji" given to who ever bring that gods or is that their real names.? if each one is given that name only when they carry that gods, then why so.?
2. wat is the name of this particular form of ritual as you said there are different forms of rituals and different names...
3. one more doubt is that every year in all the houses in india they celebrate death anniversaries, and other rituals like leaving "THARPANA" during amavasyas etc, for their elders who have died to get the blessings, and see that their souls rest in peace, is this form of ritual different form that, or is it the same...?
