Sarvapitru Amavasya Shradh at Gaya

Important facts

  • Pitru means ancestors and Paksha means fortnight. Therefore, Pitru Paksha is a 15 lunar day period during which the Hindus pay homage to their ancestors mainly by way of food offerings.
  • The period commences with the full moon day or Purnima that takes place immediately after Ganesh Chaturthi and ends with the new moon day or Amavasya known as Sarva Pitru Amavasya or Mahalaya Amavasya. This last day is the most important and highly sacred day.
  • Ancient story relates to the Mahabharata hero, Karna.
  • During his lifetime, the Karna generously donated all kinds of gold and silver but not food.
  • Thus, after his death, when he went to the higher regions, he received a lot of treasures in the form of gold and silver but no food.
  • The worried Karna prayed to Lord Yama, the God of death and with his grace, he returned to the earth during this Paksha or fortnight.
  • He donated plenty of food to the needy on all fifteen days. On the last day, he went back to the Pitru Lok with a lot of contentment and fulfillment.

Importance of performing Sarvapitru Amavasya Shradh at Gaya

  • The holy city of Gaya is regarded as a special place to perform shradh ritual as it is considered as fruitful and sacred.
  • Sarva Pitru Amavasya rites compensate for any Shraddh ceremony that may have been skipped during the year apart from those following the tithis.
  • Sarva Pitru Amavasya or All fathers’ New Moon Day is intended for all departed souls in general irrespective of the lunar day they died.
  • It is the most important day of Pitru Paksha.

Who should perform the rites?

  • Shraddh must be performed by the eldest son or any male relative of the paternal branch of the family.
  • The daughter’s son can also offer Shradh for the maternal side of the family if there is no male heir in the mother’s family.
  • People who wish to express their gratitude to their lineage for having been born into this world should perform the Sarva Pitru Amavasya ritual.

  • The rituals help to gain the blessings of Lord Yama
  • The family is protected from all ills and all obstacles are overcome
  • It relieves the souls of the deceased ancestors
  • The children are blessed with a long and prosperous life

  • Shraddha involves offering to three preceding generations as well as to the mythical lineage ancestor (gotra).
  • The names of the ancestral members are recited. A person thus gets to know the names of six generations (three preceding generation, his own and two succeeding generations - his sons and grandsons) in his life, reaffirming lineage ties.
  • The current generation repays their debt to the ancestors till the last day.
