Pitru Dosha literally means some blemish working in our life which are stemming from our family ancestors. It can be seen as some kind of inherited bad karmas of our ancestors that we are born with. The word Pitru Dosha can be loosely translated into English as ANCESTRAL BLESMISH (or some people also translate it as Ancestral Curse). It can be identified easily from our Vedic horoscope….
COMMON EFFECTS OF PITRU DOSH
If there is Pitru Dosha running in a family, then
that may cause some challenge in the life of children born in the family.
Normally, in a family where Pitru Dosha is present, either mostly female children are born or male children suffer obstacles and problems in their life and profession. In few cases no children are born to a couple belonging to a family with heavy load of Pitru Dosha.
Children [especially male] born in such families
find troubles in getting married OR if they get married, they may experience
trouble in their marriage. Few children born in such a family may turn to
homosexuality.
Many members of such a family may suffer due to
health issues.
Many people in such a family may also experience stressful finances and problem in their career.
Broadly there can be three types of Pitru Doshas running
in a family:
1.
There can
be Pitru Dosha running in our family if the death rituals of some ancestor in
our family were not done properly at the time of his/her death as per how it is
prescribed in our scriptures.
2.
If some of
our ancestors had an accidental death (or death by suicide etc.), their soul
may still be stuck in this world (or loka) only and may be wandering as ghost
because of unfinished tasks or attachments … etc. Now, we as surviving member
of the same lineage, it is our duty that we say prayers or do the prescribed
rituals under the guidance of some priest … etc. which can free such a soul of
some ancestor in our family from this loka. And if we are not doing anything to
help such a soul, that soul can bring trouble in our life.
3.
If some
people in our family ancestry did some bad karma and earned some kind of curse
because of that...now, in the same way as we inherit family genes, we inherit wealth…
etc., we all also inherit the family ancestral bad-karmas and the consequent
curse that we run in our family line.
=======================
Pitru Dosha is a very deep topic of analysis in any horoscope. Only an experienced Vedic Astrologer can do a detailed analysis of this and provide you with good remedies to negate it. But here I am giving one simple thumb-rule to identify it.
You may have Pitru Dosha running in your life
if:
·
9th
H of your birth horoscope is afflicted
·
Sun is
afflicted in your birth horoscope
·
Planet
ruling the 9th H is afflicted
REMEDIES
· We should regularly say prayers for our ancestors. Just praying for the self is not enough. We must pray for our ancestors too to burn the effects of bad karmas that may be running in our family. If you do not know what prayers to say for this purpose then I can suggest you two mantras in this context. You can chant any one of these two mantras to get rid of the Pitru Dosha running in your family – 1) RaaMa chanting 2) Gayatri Mantra Chanting.
· Donate food and money to priests, poor and animals on Amavasya Day. Pitru-Tarpanam may also be done either daily or on Amavasya Days.
· Pitru-Tarpanam should be performed on all the 15 days during the Pitru Paksha.
·
Whenever
possible, the eldest surviving member of the family [especially the male] may
go to Gaya and do the necessary Pitru Shanti puja there.
