😔 Are you worried that some of your ancestors are not at peace? This special puja is a prayer for the liberation of all departed souls in your family.

Mahalaya Amavasya, also known as Sarva Pitru Amavasya, is the most important day of Pitru Paksha. It is the one day when we can pray for every single ancestor, especially for those whose day of passing we do not know. Our traditions tell us that on this day, the gates to the ancestral world are wide open. The rituals performed have a special power to reach them. The holy city of Kashi holds a very sacred place for these rites, known as Pishach Mochan Kund. The name itself means the 'pool of liberation for restless souls'. It is believed that this is where Lord Shiva blessed a man who was troubled by the spirit of a pishach, freeing the soul from its suffering. This is why, for generations, families have come to this very spot to perform rites for ancestors who may have died an unnatural or unhappy death, helping them find peace. 

On the holy day of Mahalaya Amavasya, performing the Shraadh ceremony at Pishach Mochan Kund is believed to be a very powerful act of love and duty. The Shraadh rituals, including Pind Daan (offering of rice balls), help to satisfy the hunger and thirst of the departed souls, giving them the energy to continue their journey. After the Shraadh, a Maha Aarti is performed on the banks of the holy Ganga river. The light from the lamps of the Aarti is not just a beautiful sight; it is a prayer. This puja is a way to show gratitude and respect to those who came before us. It is a prayer for their final peace and a request for their loving blessings to be upon you and your loved ones, creating a circle of peace that connects the past, present, and future.

Join this special puja through Sri Mandir on the sacred occasion of Mahalaya Amavasya. Offer your prayers at Kashi to help your ancestors find ultimate peace and receive their heartfelt blessings for your family's well-being.

For the Ultimate Liberation of All Souls in the Family Lineage.

Mahalaya Pitru Amavasya Shraadh Pujan and Ganga Ghat Maha Aarti

📿 Has life come to a standstill? Find stability and prosperity through Pitru rituals.

🪔 Shraadh Paksha is considered the most auspicious and fruitful time to offer tarpan to ancestors and receive their blessings. It is believed that during this period, the gates of Pitru Loka remain open, and through tarpan, pind daan, and havan, the souls of the ancestors attain peace. Performing Tripindi Shraadh, Pind Daan, and Til Tarpan on Shraadh Chaturdashi is said to reduce the effects of Pitru Dosha, remove life obstacles, and shower the family with ancestral grace. This day is regarded as a golden opportunity to express gratitude towards forefathers, pray for their soul’s peace, and bring happiness, harmony, and prosperity to the family.

🕉️ In this ritual, Tripindi Shraadh and Pind Daan are special Vedic rites performed for the peace and liberation of ancestral souls. In Tripindi Shraadh, offerings of three pinds (made of sesame, rice, and kusha grass) are made for three generations - father, grandfather, and great-grandfather. It is believed that this satisfies the ancestors’ souls and grants their withheld blessings to the family. In Pind Daan, pinds prepared from rice, sesame, flowers, and water are offered in a sacred river or tirtha. This rite is considered highly effective for Pitru Dosha Nivaran, bringing peace, prosperity, and well-being in life.

🌿 Alongside this, the Til Tarpan performed on Shraadh Chaturdashi is a very important Vedic ritual for the satisfaction and peace of ancestral souls. On this auspicious date, Sri Mandir will perform tarpan with kusha, sesame, water, and sacred mantras at the Dharmaranya Vedi in Gaya. It is believed that sesame-based tarpan grants satisfaction to the souls of ancestors, and by their blessings, life obstacles start fading away. Performing Til Tarpan on Shraadh Chaturdashi is said to reduce the effects of Pitru Dosha, enhance family prosperity, and invoke ancestral grace. This sacred act of gratitude is regarded as the final opportunity of the year.

🛕 Story from Garuda Purana associated with Gaya:

Lord Brahma narrated to Sage Vyasa that an asura named Gaya performed severe penance, causing suffering to gods and humans alike. The troubled gods approached Lord Vishnu, who assured them of Gaya’s end. While fetching a lotus from the Kshira Sagara for Lord Shiva’s worship, Gaya Asura, deluded by Vishnumaya, lay down in the region of Kikata. At that time, Lord Vishnu slew him with His mace, bringing relief to gods and humans. Lord Vishnu then declared that Gaya’s body would henceforth be worshipped as a sacred land of merit. Any yajna, Shraadh, or pind daan performed here would lead devotees to attain Swarga and Brahmaloka.

For Peace of Departed Souls

Gaya Tripindi Shraadh, Pind Daan and Til Tarpanam

🔱 The Final Day to Receive Ancestors’ Grace 🍃

🌑🔱 On Mahalaya Amavasya – the closing day of Pitru Paksha – a special Tri-Teertha Pitru Shanti Anushthan will be performed to seek relief from Pitru Dosha and invoke the blessings of the ancestors for peace and prosperity in the family. ✨

Mahalaya Amavasya is considered an extremely important day for the peace and liberation of ancestors’ souls. It is the last day of Pitru Paksha and also marks the beginning of Devi Paksha, which later leads into Sharad Navratri and Durga Puja. On this day, rituals like Tarpan, Shraadh, and Pind Daan are performed to bring contentment to the ancestors’ souls. If ancestors are not pleased, it can create Pitru Dosha, causing obstacles and unrest in one’s life. Performing Pitru Shanti rituals on Mahalaya Amavasya is considered the best way to remove this Dosha.This year, Pitru Paksha 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. 
A special Pitru Shanti ritual on Mahalaya Amavasya is regarded as one of the most effective ways to seek relief from such ancestral karmic influences.

 🍃 Scriptures mention that rituals performed on this day can bring satisfaction and peace to the departed, who in turn bestow blessings of harmony, stability, and prosperity upon their descendants. Ordinary prayers alone are not enough; a deep and methodical anushthan is considered necessary.

This is why a Tri-Teertha Pitru Shanti Anushthan is organized - conducted simultaneously in three sacred moksha-giving pilgrimages: Kashi’s Pishach Mochan Kund, Rameshwaram Ghat, and Gokarna. It is believed that performing tarpan and Shraadh across these three powerful sites together grants deep satisfaction to the Pitrus and clears new pathways for the family.

📿 Kashi – The city of liberation. At Pishach Mochan Kund, Garuda Purana describes that pitru puja performed here grants peace to ancestors and stability to the lineage.

 📿 Rameshwaram Ghat – Where Bhagwan Shri Ram Himself performed jal-tarpan for His ancestors after returning from Lanka, setting the tradition of shraadh.

 📿 Gokarna – The land of Atma Linga, where performing Shraadh and tarpan at Kotiteertha and the samudra sangam is said to offer lasting peace to ancestors and blessings to descendants.

✨ Through Sri Mandir, you can join this Mahalaya Amavasya Tri-Tirtha Pitru Shanti Anushthan and guide your ancestors’ souls toward liberation while opening the path of peace and prosperity for your family.
