About Pitru Dosh Nivaran Puja

Location - Ganga Ghat, Haridwar, Uttarakhand

Pitru Dosh Nivaran Puja is a powerful Vedic ritual performed to seek forgiveness and blessings from one’s ancestors (Pitrs) whose souls may not have attained peace due to unfulfilled desires, karmic debts, or untimely death. This puja is specifically done to remove Pitru Dosh — a dosh (flaw) in the birth chart that arises when the ancestors are displeased or their souls are restless. It is believed that Pitru Dosh can cause ongoing issues like financial instability, health problems, marriage delays, repeated failures, and family disputes.

This puja helps in appeasing the departed souls, ensuring their peace in the afterlife, and receiving their blessings for happiness, success, and growth in the family. It is ideally performed during Pitru Paksha, Amavasya, or on auspicious days like Mahalaya Amavasya, although it can be done on other suitable days as per the guidance of a knowledgeable priest or astrologer.
