మహాలయంMahalaya Pitru Paksha
The fortnight of the ancestors: every Tithi, every Shraddha day, and Sarva Pitru Amavasya, computed for your city.
Computing the Pitru Paksha calendar…
The Krishna Paksha of Bhadrapada is set aside for remembering the Pitru Devatas, the ancestors. Families traditionally observe Shraddha on the Tithi on which a parent passed; those unsure of the Tithi observe Sarva Pitru Amavasya, the concluding new moon, which belongs to all ancestors. Use the Shraddha Tithi calculator to find your family's exact day.
Seva in their name. During this fortnight, many families offer Anna Seva and Go-Seva in remembrance. In the tradition, the cow carries the offering onward. This is an offering of love, never a requirement for Shraddha itself.
Observance details vary by Sampradaya; your family's Purohit is the final word.
Free, because the cows are the point
Pitru Paksha is the fortnight of the ancestors, and feeding a cow in their name is a traditional offering. We can do that for you at Toopran.
