Pitru Paksha 2024: Pitru Paksha has started from 18 September 2024 and people are performing rituals like Pinddaan, Shradh and Tarpan for their ancestors as per the date. It is believed that the ancestors are satisfied with the Shradh rituals performed with restraint and rituals in the 15 days of Pitru Paksha and they attain salvation.
But the rituals during Pitra Paksha are considered successful only when they are performed with full rules and caution. Because the mistakes made during this time can make the ancestors angry and can cause Pitra Dosh. Let us know what is necessary and what is not for Shraddha.
These 3 things are necessary for Shraadh and 3 things are prohibited-
