(Sanskrit पितृ) Literally, “ancestors, forefathers, father and mother.” In spirituality, the term pitri refers to the forefathers of humanity of long forgotten ages, such as the Lemurian or Polar eras, or even older, the ancient humanity who populated the planet we now call the Moon.
“…the Moon is the mother of the Earth, the antecessor of our globe. The Moon is where our parents or Pitris came from.” – Samael Aun Weor, The Doomed Aryan Race
