Pitru Paksha Shradh Puja is a sacred ritual performed to honor and pay homage to deceased ancestors (Pitras) during the lunar fortnight of Pitru Paksha, which usually falls in Bhadrapada month (September–October). This ritual includes Tarpan (offering water), Pind Daan (offering rice balls), and food donations to Brahmins and the needy.

Benefits of Pitru Paksha Shradh Puja:

✅ Attains Ancestors’ Blessings – Brings peace and prosperity to the family.
✅ Removes Pitru Dosha – Eliminates ancestral karmic debts and obstacles.
✅ Ensures Family Harmony – Resolves generational issues and promotes well-being.
✅ Spiritual Growth – Helps in attaining inner peace and divine guidance.
✅ Improves Career & Health – Reduces struggles related to finances, job, and health.

Performing Shradh with devotion, especially at sacred places like Gaya, Haridwar, Prayagraj, or Varanasi, is considered highly auspicious and brings liberation (Moksha) to the departed souls. 🙏
