Pitru Paksha 2025

 

Pitru Paksha 2025

Pitru Paksha, also called Shraadh, is a sacred 16-day period in the Hindu calendar dedicated to honoring and remembering ancestors. During this time, the eldest son of the family traditionally performs Tarpan or Shraadh rituals, offering food and water to departed souls as a mark of respect and gratitude.

Pitru Paksha begins on Bhadrapada Purnima and concludes on Ashwin Amavasya (also known as Sarva Pitru Amavasya).

Significance of Pitru Paksha

In Hindu tradition, performing Shraadh during Pitru Paksha is considered a sacred duty of the son towards his forefathers. It is believed that these rituals not only keep the ancestors content but also help repay the Pitru Rin (ancestral debt). In return, the ancestors bless their descendants with good health, prosperity, wisdom, longevity, and spiritual growth.

Many Hindus also believe that without the blessings of their ancestors, no task can be truly successful.

The Legend Behind Pitru Paksha

According to the Mahabharata, when the noble warrior Karna died and reached heaven, he was offered gold and jewels instead of food. Confused, he asked Lord Indra the reason. Indra reminded him that while Karna had donated wealth and riches throughout his life, he never offered food and water to his ancestors during Shraadh.

To make amends, Karna was granted permission to return to Earth for 15 days—the period now known as Pitru Paksha—to donate food and water in memory of his forefathers.

When to Perform Pitru Paksha Tarpan?

Pitru Paksha rituals follow specific traditions, with certain days dedicated to particular types of departed souls:

• Chautha Bharani & Bharani Panchami (4th & 5th day): For those who passed away in the previous year.

• 9th day: For women who died before their husbands.

• 12th day: For children and ascetics.

• 14th day (Ghayala Chaturdashi): For those who suffered a violent death.

• Sarva Pitru Amavasya (last day): For those unsure of their ancestor’s death date or wishing to honor multiple souls together.

Pitru Paksha and Gaya

Among all pilgrimage sites, Gaya in Bihar holds the highest significance for Pitru Paksha rituals. It is believed that Lord Rama performed Shraadh for his father King Dasharatha on the banks of the holy Falgu River in Gaya.

The Vishnupada Temple in Gaya, marked by Lord Vishnu’s footprint, is a sacred place where devotees pray for the salvation of their ancestors.

Today, if one cannot personally perform the rituals, it is possible to request a pandit to do it on their behalf—even through online Shraadh services.

श्रवण नक्षत्र लगाएगा चार चांद

ख्यात ज्योतिषाचार्य पं. ऋषि द्विवेदी के अनुसार देवाधिदेव महादेव को प्रसन्न करने के लिए यह मास समर्पित है। इस बार श्रावण मास की शुरुआत रविवार से तो समाप्ति भी रविवार को ही हो रही है। जो बेहद खास है। प्रतिपदा को श्रवण नक्षत्र का संयोग चार चांद लगाने वाला होगा। सावन में नवग्रह पूजन विशेष फलदायी होता है।
