The rituals and traditions are distinguished and vary from region and person to person. It is believed that performing pitru puja is essential during this period and is considered very auspicious. According to the best astrologer, this period is also auspicious to reduce or eradicate the effects of Pitru Dosha in the individual’s birth chart. Some of the remedies that can be performed are offering food and clothes to people in need, giving cows and birds, especially crows, some food, and respecting the elders

People should also recite the sacred scriptures like “Garuda Purana.” Gaya Ji in India is the most holy place for performing the Shradh Karma. The puja and prayers performed during this period for the ancestors lead to the blessings of God, in turn. One should eat Satwik food during this period and should not start any new work or new venture during this entire duration. Also, marriages are not done, and buying property, jewelry, and ornaments is also not considered auspicious.

We wish that God and everyone’s ancestors shower their blessings and eliminate and eradicate all the obstacles, suffering, and worries in their lives.
