💫 The concluding period of Kartik month is considered extremely holy. It is believed that the last three dates of this month—Trayodashi, Chaturdashi, and Purnima—are the time to receive the special grace of deities, sages, and ancestors. These dates have also been called "Pitru Tripti Kaal" (Ancestor Satisfaction Period), because this is the time when the Sun God moves from the Libra sign towards the Scorpio sign and the flow of divine energy becomes more active on earth. Rituals, tarpan (libation), and charity performed during this period are considered many times more fruitful than on ordinary days. On this auspicious occasion, Pitru Shanti Mahapuja, pind daan (offering of rice balls), and til tarpan (sesame libation) are being organized in three holy pilgrimage sites like Gaya, Kashi, and Gokarna.

🌿 The tradition of performing pind daan on the footprints of Lord Vishnu in Gaya Tirtha (pilgrimage site) has been continuing since ancient times. It is believed that the tarpan and pind daan performed here reach the Pitru Loka (ancestral realm) directly and provide satisfaction to the souls.

🌿 Kashi, where Lord Shiva himself resides, the Pitru Shanti rituals there are considered extremely effective for spiritual balance and family happiness-peace. The tarpan and water offering performed here provide the direction of moksha (salvation) to the ancestors.

🌿 Gokarna, which is called the “Kashi of the South,” the rituals performed there with til tarpan and Vedic methods are considered a means to calm the effect of Pitru Dosha (ancestral fault) and incomplete karmas. Here, by the grace of Lord Mahabaleshwara, the souls of the ancestors attain peace and the descendants attain mental stability.

It is mentioned in the scriptures that when a person's ancestors remain unsatisfied due to incomplete desires or untimely death, then obstacles, disputes, economic instability, and mental stress may increase in the lives of their descendants. Therefore, the Pitru Shanti Mahapuja, pind daan, and til tarpan performed ritually on these dates are considered helpful in bringing peace, unity, and stability to the family.

💫 This year, an opportunity is being received to participate in the Gaya, Kashi, and Gokarna Pitru Tri-Kshetra Mahapuja through Sri Mandir, which is a superior spiritual path to express reverence towards ancestors and bring harmony and balance to the family. It is believed that the rituals performed collectively at these three pilgrimage sites satisfy the ancestors and make the descendants feel mental, familial, and spiritual peace, so do not delay, do not let this golden opportunity to participate in this holy ritual slip away.

🌿 On the last three dates of the end of Kartik month, Pitru Shanti Mahapuja will be held simultaneously in three holy pilgrimage sites like Gaya, Gokarna, and Kashi 🙏✨

For Peace of Ancestor's souls and Resolving Family Disputes

Pitru Shanti Mahapuja, Pind Daan and Til Tarpan

Have you ever felt like no matter how much effort you put in, life just doesn’t seem to move forward? You work tirelessly, yet career growth feels stagnant. Family disputes arise without any clear reason. Your children face unexpected hurdles in their studies or careers. Financial instability and recurring health issues seem to keep pulling your family backward.

In Sanatan Dharma, these ongoing struggles are often linked to an imbalance known as Pitru Dosha, a spiritual condition believed to occur when the souls of our ancestors remain restless or unsatisfied due to incomplete Shradh rituals and unoffered prayers. According to the scriptures, until our forefathers attain peace, their unfulfilled desires may manifest as obstacles in the lives of their descendants.

It is said Purnima  tithi holds a very important significance in the cure of Pitru dosha. These days carry special importance for alleviating Pitru Dosha and ensuring harmony in family life. The Vedas, Upanishads, and Puranas emphasize the power of performing tarpan, and Pind daan.

To help devotees overcome these challenges, the Pitru Dosh Shanti Mahapuja and Kashi Ganga Aarti on Purnima hold immense power. This grand Mahapuja will be performed at the sacred Pishach Mochan Kund in Kashi, a revered Moksha Sthal mentioned in the Puranas. It is believed that rituals here liberate restless ancestral souls from lower realms and guide them toward higher planes of peace. Alongside the Mahapuja, a special Ganga Aarti at Moksha Dayini Maa Ganga’s ghat in Kashi will be conducted, inviting blessings of protection, prosperity, and harmony.

Don’t miss this rare opportunity. Join the Pitru Dosh Shanti Mahapuja and Kashi Ganga Aarti online through Sri Mandir and seek the divine blessings of your ancestors for peace, success, and well-being.

For peace of ancestors' souls and resolving family disputes

Pitru Dosha Nivaran Puja and Kashi Ganga Aarti

In Sanatan tradition, Kartika Shukla Purnima, also known as Dev Deepawali, is considered a highly sacred and divine day. It is believed that after Lord Vishnu awakens from His cosmic Yog Nidra on Devutthana Ekadashi, the gods themselves descend to earth on this day and light lamps along the banks of the holy Ganga. Therefore, Kartika Purnima is seen as one of the most powerful days to receive the combined blessings of both Devas and Pitrus (ancestors).

Rituals performed on this day are believed to bring peace to ancestors’ souls, resolve ongoing family disputes, and bring harmony and positive energy into life.

On this sacred occasion, two main Pitru rituals are being conducted in Gaya:

🔹 Pitru Shanti Puja:
 Performed to offer peace to the departed souls and receive their blessings. Through Vedic mantras and Tarpan, ancestors are respectfully invoked and honoured. It is believed to bring peace, balance, and mental stability in the family.

🔹 Gaya Pind Daan:
 Pind Daan performed at Gaya is considered extremely auspicious. Sacred pind (made of sesame seeds, rice, and kusha grass) are offered to ancestors with devotion. It is believed that this ritual removes Pitru Dosha and brings peace, health, and prosperity to the family.

📖 The Significance of Gaya:
 According to the Garuda Purana, Lord Vishnu transformed the body of the demon Gaya into this holy land. Since then, Pind Daan and Pitru rites performed here are believed to grant liberation (moksha) to the departed souls and welfare to the family.

🌕 On this Kartika Purnima (Dev Deepawali), by participating in Pitru Shanti Puja and Gaya Pind Daan in Gaya, you can offer heartfelt homage to your ancestors and invite peace, harmony, and positive blessings into your home.
