Oblation

Oblation is when someone offers something, usually to God or a higher power. It's like when you bring a present to your friend's birthday party. But instead of bringing a physical gift, people who do oblation offer something spiritual, like their time, their money, or their prayers. It's a way of showing gratitude and asking for blessings in return. Just like how you say "please" and "thank you" to be polite, people do oblation to show respect and kindness to their beliefs.
