Does the Bhagavad gita condemn the worship of ancestral deities and elemental powers?
In Adhyay 9 Shlok 25, the narrator of Holy Gita ji has said that the worshippers of gods, go to gods; worshippers of Pitras (deceased ancestors) go to Pitras; worshippers of ghosts/evil spirits (the offering of Pind) go to the evil spirits i.e. become ghosts; those who follow scripture-based (according to holy Vedas and Gita) way of worship, they come to me i.e. they enjoy for some time in heaven and great heaven etc constructed by Kaal.
Furthermore In Holy Gitaji's Adhyay 7 Shlok 12 to 15, Kaal is stating that Arjun! Now I will impart that knowledge to you, knowing which, there would be nothing else left to know. The narrator of Gita, Brahm, is saying that for the living beings of my twenty-one brahmands the scripture-based sadhna begins from my worship only, which has been mentioned in the Vedas. The intellect of living beings, who are in my jurisdiction, is in my hand. I am only master in the twenty-one brahmands. Therefore (Gita Adhyay 7 Shlok 12 to 15) whatever is happening through the three gunas (creation of living beings by Rajgun-Brahma Ji, preservation by Satgun-Vishnu Ji, destruction byTamgun-Shiv Ji) - I (Brahm-Kaal) am only its main cause. (Because Kaal has the curse of killing one lakh human beings and eating their grime) Those sadhaks who instead of doing my (Brahm's) sadhna, perform sadhna of the Trigunmayi Maya (Rajgun-Brahma Ji, Satgun-Vishnu Ji, and Tamgun-Shiv Ji) and obtain the shortlived benefits, consequently suffer more; besides has indicated that I (Brahm-Kaal) can give more benefits than these, but these foolish sadhaks because of absence of Tattavgyan (the absolute knowledge) keep doing sadhna of only these three gunas (Rajgun-Brahma Ji, Satgun-Vishnu Ji, and Tamgun-Shiv Ji). Their intellect is limited to only these three gods. Therefore these with demoniac nature, lowest among men, those who do evil acts like performing sadhna opposite to the scriptures, these fools do not worship me (Brahm/Kaal). This evidence is also in Gita Adhyay 16 Shlok 4 to 20 and 23, 24; Adhyay 17 Shlok 2 to 14 and also in 19 and 20.
