Pitru Paksh

Pitru Paksh

  

For the betterment of family and society and to get the blessing to be on the righteous path, “Pitrapuksha” a tradition of subservient rituals was established; to satisfy and to pay respect and devotion to the departed souls of Former men/ fathers and ancestors. In pitrapuksha, usually people follow the tradition of performing  Shraadh, Tarpan, and Havan followed by feeding Brahmins. In addition to this , we should encourage tree plantation and lifelong care to that tree,  in the memory of departed souls. Tree plantation is such a noble task, which gives everlasting peace to Pitra, and happiness and wealth to coming generations

 

During these Pitrapuksha, along with former man and ancestors,, we should also pay special attention to  indulge into the activities to satisfy living old and elderly family members. If elderly people are not around in the family , then we should try to satisfy and nurture any other with reach elderly persons. This task also has same effect as Shraadh Tarpan, or feeding Brahmin, and brings peace and happiness in the family and society.

पितृपक्ष में परिवार एवं समाज को श्रेष्ठ गति देने के लिए पूर्व पुरुषों, पितरों को श्रद्धापूर्ण कार्यों से संतुष्ट करने की परम्परा है। इसमें श्राद्ध, तर्पण, हवन करके ब्राह्मणों-कन्याओं को भोजन कराने के क्रम तो चलते ही हैं। इसके साथ पितरों की स्मृति में वृक्षों का आरोपण करने, उन्हें रक्षित-विकसित करने के क्रम भी चलाये जाने चाहिए। यह एक ऐसा शुभ कार्य है जो एक बार करने से वर्षों तक पुरखों को शान्ति और नयी पीढ़ी को समृद्धि देता रहता है।  

 

मृत-पितरों के साथ जीवित पितरों, वयोवृद्धों को तुष्ट-तृप्त करने के विशेष प्रयोग भी इसके साथ जोड़े जाने चाहिए। यदि अपने परिवार के बुजुर्ग पास में नहीं हैं तो किन्हीं अन्य बुजुर्गों को पुष्ट-तृप्त करने के प्रयास किये जाने चाहिए। इस कार्य को श्राद्ध-तर्पण, ब्राह्मण भोजन आदि जैसा ही पुण्यदायी माना जाना चाहिए।
