🙏🕯️ The last chance to please ancestors and seek their blessings

🌑✨ Do not miss this Mahalaya Amavasya. Become a part of the sacred Til Tarpan 🌾 and Pind Daan 🍃 rituals in Gaya and attain spiritual merit.
In Sanatan Dharma, Pitru Paksha holds special importance. This period is dedicated to remembering ancestors and performing rituals for the peace of their souls. Among these, the Amavasya tithi, also called Sarvapitru Amavasya or Mahalaya Amavasya, is considered the most sacred. On this day, Shraadh is performed for ancestors whose date of death is unknown or whose Shraadh was missed. It is believed that on this day, ancestors visit their descendants’ homes, and when offered Tarpan and Pind Daan, they are pleased and bless the family. This year, Mahalaya Amavasya is even more special because according to astrology, this is a rare coincidence, taking place after many years, when both the beginning and the end of Pitru Paksha are occurring during eclipses.

Learn the Importance of Til Tarpan and Pind Daan 🙏

During Pitru Paksha, two main rituals are performed. The first is Pind Daan, which means offering food to the ancestors, and the second is Tarpan, which means offering water. According to the scriptures, when Tarpan is done with til (sesame seeds) and water with devotion, it reaches the ancestors like nectar. It is believed that performing these rituals at a sacred place increases their benefits.The Garuda Purana and Vayu Purana mention that performing Shraadh, Tarpan, and Pind Daan is the duty of every person. This brings the blessings of ancestors and keeps peace in the family. Those who do not remember their ancestors or perform Shraadh may face obstacles and difficulties in life.Problems such as marital delays, concerns about children, struggles in career or education, or health issues are considered the results of neglecting these duties.

Therefore, performing Shraadh and Tarpan to satisfy and bring peace to ancestors is essential. In Hindu tradition, the Dharmaranya Vedi in Gaya is a highly revered place for Pitru Shraadh. It is believed that performing Pind Daan and Shraadh here brings satisfaction to ancestors and merit to the descendants.

For this reason, Sri Mandir is organizing Pind Daan and Til Tarpan in Gaya on Mahalaya Amavasya. By participating in these sacred rites, you too can become a part of this auspicious karma and earn blessings.

For Peace of Departed Souls

Tripindi Shraadh, Pind Daan and Til Tarpanam

Are your ancestors’ souls still restless? 🙏Pray for them in the sacred land of Gaya, where blessings are believed to bring eternal peace.

The holy city of Gaya has a very special story. It is named after a great devotee, Gayasura. He performed such deep penance that the gods became worried. Lord Vishnu, pleased with his devotion, appeared before him. Gayasura asked for a boon that his body should become the purest of all holy places. Lord Vishnu granted his wish, and Gayasura’s body became the land of Gaya. He also gave a blessing that whoever performs Shraadh and Pind Daan here, their ancestors for many generations will receive moksha (liberation) and go to the heavenly abode of Lord Vishnu. This is why, for thousands of years, devotees have been coming to Gaya to perform these sacred duties for their ancestors.

This puja includes three important rituals. First is Pind Daan, where rice balls are offered. It is believed that this offering gives strength and satisfaction to the souls of our ancestors on their onward journey. The second is Til Tarpanam, an offering of black sesame seeds and water, which is said to quench the thirst of the departed souls. The third is Tripindi shraadh, a very important ritual for any ancestors who may have died an untimely or unnatural death, or for those whose yearly rituals may have been missed. This special Shraadh helps even those restless souls find peace and liberation. Performing these rituals at the sacred Dharmaranya Vedi in Gaya holds immense significance, as it is believed that even Dharmaraj Yudhishthir performed shraadh here for the peace of all those who died in the Mahabharata war.

By performing these duties, it is believed that a family can be freed from Pitra Dosh (ancestral afflictions), which can cause many problems in life. When our ancestors are happy and satisfied, they send their loving blessings to us. This brings peace, happiness, and prosperity to the entire family. Fulfilling this sacred duty helps us receive their blessings for good health and success in all our work.

This special puja through Sri Mandir is a prayer for the peace of our ancestors and the well-being of our family.
