Mauni Amavasya: Perform Tarpan, Recite Pitru Suktam for Ancestral Blessings

  • Mauni Amavasya is an auspicious day for pleasing ancestors through Tarpan, Pind Daan, and donations.
  • Ancestors visit Earth on Amavasya and return to Pitru Lok after receiving offerings from descendants.
  • Bathing in the Sangam at Prayagraj on Mauni Amavasya grants blessings from Lord Vishnu and Goddess Ganga.
  • Perform Tarpan with Ganga water, flowers, and black sesame seeds, wearing a Kusha Pavithri, ensuring water falls through the Kusha grass.
  • After Tarpan, recite the Pitru Suktam correctly to appease ancestors and receive their blessings, especially after worshipping Aryama.

Why It Matters: On Mauni Amavasya, perform Tarpan and recite Pitru Suktam to appease ancestors and receive their blessings.
