MAHALAYA PAKSHAM / MAHALAYA AMAVASAI / PITRU AMAVASAI Belief: It is
believed that after the death, the soul would remain in an intermediate
world (loka) known as the Pitru loka. The soul stays in the pitru loka
untill the fourth descendant enters the same and once the fourth descendant
comes, the first soul would move to the heaven or the swarga loka. So, at
any given time only three generations of the soul would reside in the pitru
loka. This world is governed by Lord Yama. It is believed that the souls of
the ancestors would come down and reside with the descendants in their home
during this period and hence one should perform the traditional ritual to
satisfy the ancestors. Tradition: Mahalaya Amavasai or Pithru Amavasai is
the new moon day of Pithru Paksham or Mahalaya Paksham, the fortnight which
is especially sacred for offering oblations to the departed ancestors. It
is believed that performing Tarpanams during the auspicious Mahalaya
Paksham will bless your ancestors and will free them from all their sins.
Each day in the Mahalaya Paksham is ruled by a particular Tithi or Moon
Phase and the benefits of offering Tarpanam on each day are different.
Mahalaya Amavasai is the last day of the Mahalaya Paksham, which is
considered as the most important day in the year for performing obsequies
and rites and on this day, people donate food, clothes etc. Appreciate Your
Departed Ancestors on Mahalaya Paksham 2024. Donating food is considered
to be the greatest charity of all the charities and it is believed that
whoever donates food will attain an 'elevated status'. There is an
interesting legend highlighting the importance of donating food from the
great epic Mahabharata. The legend for ancestors coming down during this
period is as follows: After Karna the wellknown donor, who had never said
‘no’ as answer for anything that was asked of him, died and was taken to
heaven. He was offered gold and silver as food. Karna was hungry and wanted
to have normal food that he can eat. He approached Indra and asked the
reason for not being served with normal food. Indra replied that you have
donated all the items that people wanted but never had a chance to donate
food and hence was not offered the normal food. Karna prays to Indra for a
remedy and asks him to allow him to return to earth and donate rice and
other eatables. Indra agrees and it is believed that Karna came to earth on
these days and has donated the food. After which it is believed that
ancestors would return to earth on these days and hence the ritual of
Shraadham is performed on these days. Hence this period is now known as
Pitru Paksham.
Mahalaya Paksham: The Ancestors' Time: Great enlightened beings, who
have turned their body into light, visit the earth daily in their light
form. Our departed ancestors also come and stay on this earth plane for 15
days in a year in our body, mind and soul and can change all these 3
positively. Even Gods cannot do what these ancestors can do for you; in
fact, Gods ask you to go through your ancestors for blessings. These
auspicious 15 days of Mahalaya Paksham in 2024, is the most important 2
weeks period to appreciate your departed ancestors. The Annual 15 Moons of
Mahalaya: The Maha Ancestral ritual spans from the 1st Moon till the
Amavasai and each day is ruled by a specific phase of the Moon. Moon Phase
or Tithi Benefits of Specific Moon Phase Tarpanams
1st Moon Gives Wealth
2nd Moon 3rd Moon Grants the Continuation of Lineage Gives Business
Prosperity
4th Moon 5th Moon Gives Ability to Overpower Enemies Grants All- over
Prosperity
6th Moon Grants a Solid Reputation
7th Moon 8th Moon Secures Inner Strength and Spirituality Blesses with
Intelligence
9th Moon 10th Moon Open Up to Receive Support from Women
11th Moon Grants Success in Your Profession Grants Children Prosperity and
Intelligence
12th Moon For Continuation of Lineage and Success from Education
13th and 14th Moon Get blessed own vehicles, Peace and Longevity New
Moon(15th Moon) If you miss any of the above days, Amavasai is mandatory.
This is also an essential day for doing Tarpanam for those who died due
to weapons or accidents. During this day, the known and unknown souls that
have departed during the last 30 years are treated equal to God Have you
ever felt that for no apparent reason, you are constantly suffering? You
are a pious, God-fearing person, you do not indulge in back-biting or
wrongdoing consciously, yet you or your family members are always
undergoing one or the other type of problems. Astrology has a perfect
explanation to this problem. It is due to the fact that the soul of our
ancestors & departed forefathers does not get peace (Shanti). If knowingly
or unknowingly our ancestors have done some mistakes, they are reflected in
our Horoscope as Pitru Dosham or Pitra Rina and being their off springs, we
are destined to suffer from their bad effects. Because of the malefic
effect of the inflicted planets, benefic planets also stop giving favorable
results.
