Pitru Paksha 2023: Know Benefits Of Offering Black Sesame During Shradh - News18
Sarva Pitru Amavasya this year falls on October 14.
Appeasing your ancestors may lead to happiness, peace and prosperity in your life.
Paying obeisance to departed ancestors has been an integral part of Indian culture. It’s believed that during Pitru Paksha, which falls in the month of Ashwin, our deceased forefathers descend on earth to witness the well-being of their descendants. According to Hindu belief, if our ancestors are not satisfied or are angry with us, they can curse which may lead to problems in our lives. This is called Pitru Dosh and it can be removed by performing Tarpan, Pind Daan, and Shradh to please their souls.
Appeasing them may lead to happiness, peace and prosperity in your life. Pandit Rishikant Mishra, an astrologer from Unnao, Uttar Pradesh, explains how we can use black sesame during Pitru Paksha to get rid of the Pitru Dosh.
Sarva Pitru Amavasya this year falls on October 14. Coincidentally, it is on a Saturday, the day of Lord Shani. You can thus remove both Pitru Dosh and Shani Dosh on the auspicious day.
Pleasing Lord Yamraj
It is believed that Lord Yamraj, the Hindu god of death, loves black sesame and offering these seeds during Shradh will liberate the ancestors from Yamlok.
Pleasing Aryaman
Lord Aryama is referred to as the ancestor’s god. Worship Aryama by offering black sesame seeds to please ancestors. Both Lord Aryaman and the forefathers bestow their blessings on those who perform these rituals.
Please Lord Vishnu
It is believed that Lord Vishnu created sesame seeds, many people observe a fast and then follow specific rituals, including offering black sesame seeds during Shradh to please Lord Vishnu. This will appease the ancestors as well. This also ensures that the souls of your ancestors attain Vaikuntha, the heavenly abode of Lord Vishnu.
Trigrahi Doshas Will Be Pacified
If you use black sesame in worship during Pitru Paksha, then Trigrahi Doshas will be eliminated. You can calm all three planets, Rahu, Ketu and Shani by offering black sesame.
