Pitru Paksha 6 Tithis 6 Moksha Teerth Sarv Pitru Tripti Tarpan Sankalp

Pitru Paksha is the one time in the year when the distance between you and your ancestors collapses. And when they are close, performing Tarpan in their name is the simplest and most direct thing the tradition prescribes to reach them. The word itself means to satisfy, to quench. Because the Garuda Purana tells us the ancestor's journey is one of deep thirst, and this offering is the one thing that answers it.
Across 6 Mahaithis, at 6 Moksha Teerths from Triveni Sangam to Gaya, this Sankalp places your Tarpan at every major crossing of the 15-day journey!

6 Mahatithis, 6 Moksha Teerths for Triptayami
🔱 Pratipada | Triveni Sangam, Prayagraj | 27 September 2026
The King of all Tirthas, where Ganga, Yamuna, and the invisible Saraswati meet. The Agni Purana declares that Punya earned through Pitru Tarpan here is Akshaya (imperishable), carried across every lifetime and every generation. The first Tarpan of this Sankalp enters the holiest waters in creation.
🔱 Ashtami | Gokarna Teertha Kshetra | 3 October 2026
Home to Shiva's Atmalinga, one of the most powerful and difficult to reach Teerths in Hinduism. Ashtami carries the Rudra energy of the grandfather's ancestral tier. Tarpan in your Pitru’s name here reaches the intermediate plane where the grandfather's soul dwells, through Shiva's own Rudra grace, at one of the rarest sacred sites in the tradition.
🔱 Navami | Assi Ghat, Kashi | 4 October 2026
Matru Navami - the tithi of the maternal ancestors. Kashi is Avimukta, the city Shiva never abandons, where the Tarak Mantra resonates permanently through every place. Tarpan offered here on Navami carries your offering to the maternal line through the most complete grace available.
🔱 Dashami | Shipra Ghat | 5 October 2026
Dashami carries the energy of the solar ancestors - the Aditya tier, the great-grandfathers who have progressed furthest from the earth plane. Ujjain is Mahakal's own city, where Shiva presides as the lord of time itself, holding authority over every plane the soul passes, bringing them total satisfaction.
🔱 Ekadashi | Ganga Ghat, Haridwar | 6 October 2026
Ekadashi belongs to Vishnu, and Haridwar is his own city. The scriptural promise here is among the most expansive in the tradition, by this rite, ancestors up to twenty-one earlier generations are redeemed. Tarpan at Haridwar on Ekadashi does not reach one ancestor. It reaches the entire lineage.
🔱 Sarv Pitru Amavasya | Falgu River, Gaya Ji | 10 October 2026
Every Purana confirms it as the primary place for Tarpan. No spot in Gaya is not a Tirtha. Whoever performs Pitru Karma at Gaya liberates their ancestors from whatever state they are in. The final Tarpan of this Sankalp carries your last act of Smaran to every ancestor your lineage has ever carried, known and unknown, named and unnamed.

You do not need to know every name. You only need to remember that they existed, that they mattered, and that Pitru Paksha is the time to say so.Through Sri Mandir, all 6 Tarpans are performed on their respective tithis at all 6 sacred locations in Pitru's name. A video of each ritual reaches you within 24–48 hours.
