Kalashtami Kaal Bhairav-Yama Pitru Shanti Puja
For ancestral peace and protection from negative energies
Kalashtami Kaal Bhairav-Pitru-Yama Special Kalashtami Kaal Bhairav-Yama Pitru Shanti Puja for ancestral peace and protection from negative energies
In Hinduism, Pitru Paksha Kalashtami holds special significance. This day is especially important for the peace of the ancestors' souls and their liberation. Worshiping Bhairav Dev on Kalashtami is also significant, as Bhairav is considered the protector of the gods and the destroyer of sins. The worship of Bhairav Dev along with Yam Pitru Shanti Puja during Pitru Paksha is believed to protect devotees from negative energies.
On Kalashtami, Yam Pitru Shanti Puja is of equal importance, as it involves the worship of Yamraj (the god of death) and ancestors. This ritual is considered highly effective in removing Pitru Dosha (ancestral imbalances) and bringing peace to the souls of ancestors. Pleasing Yamraj with this puja brings the blessings of ancestors, leading to happiness, peace, and freedom from physical and mental suffering. The offerings of Tarpan, Pind Daan, and Shraddh on this day are symbols of respect for ancestors. Worshiping Yamraj and Bhairav on the night of Kalashtami is believed to bring happiness, prosperity, and favorable outcomes in life.
💫 Why Worship Bhairav Dev in Pitru Paksha?
Bhairav Dev is worshiped as a form of Shiva's Rudra aspect. He is known as the destroyer of sins and the protector of his devotees. Worshiping Bhairav Dev is believed to help attain moksha (liberation), as he can remove all negative karmas from life. His blessings guide the soul towards peace and liberation. Bhairav Dev’s blessings help remove Pitru Dosha, bring peace, prosperity, and relief from life's difficulties, and take significant steps toward moksha.
The significance of Pitru Shanti Puja in Yamunotri Dham is magnified, as the purity and devotion of Yamunaji bring peace to the souls of ancestors. This puja involves rituals like Tarpan and Pind Daan, which have the power to remove Pitru Dosha and bring happiness, prosperity, and peace to the family. Similarly, Sri Batuk Bhairav Temple in Kashi is a famous religious site where the worship of Bhairav Dev holds special significance. Devotees visit this temple for mental peace, removal of Pitru Dosha, and relief from fears.

Dedicated to Devi Yamuna, this temple is located in Uttarkashi district on the banks of the Yamuna River. One special and unique ritual at Yamunotri Dham is the use of the Sury Kund, a hot water spring near the temple. Pilgrims cook potatoes and rice in this spring and offer the cooked items to the temple, taking the rice as prasad home. It is believed that those who worship Devi Yamuna here receive blessings from both Surya Dev (Sun God) and Yamraj (God of Death).
Sri Batuk Bhairav Temple, Kashi
In the holy city of Kashi, worshiping Bhairav is considered incomplete without visiting this temple. Here, Kal Bhairav is present in two forms: Batuk Bhairav and Adi Bhairav. Batuk Bhairav is the child form of Kal Bhairav. Swarnakarshan Bhairav, a pure form of Bhairav, is considered the deity of wealth and prosperity. Worshiping him is believed to bring continuous and abundant wealth. This temple is also well-known for performing Pitru Anushthans (rituals for ancestors).
