Paush Amavasya 2024: The first Amavasya of this year i.e. Paush Amavasya is on 11 January 2024. Although the Amavasya date of every month is very important, but since both the month of Paush and Amavasya are dedicated to ancestors, the importance of Paush Amavasya doubles.
It is believed that by doing some special work on Paush Amavasya, one gets freedom from the tortures of ancestors in Yamalok and one reaches heaven. Also one gets freedom from Pitra Dosh. Let us know what to do on Paush Amavasya.
Do these 4 things on Paush Amavasya
Perform Shraddha at this time – The time between 11.30 am to 1 pm is considered best for performing Shraddha of ancestors. It is believed that on Amavasya in the afternoon, the ancestors come among their descendants and hope to get water and food from them. In such a situation, the Shraddha performed at this time satisfies the ancestors of 7 generations. Ancestors attain salvation.
This donation will give relief from Pitra Dosh – Donation given to a deserving person provides unfailing results along with fame, success and good fortune to the person. To get relief from Pitra Dosh, donate food, rice, milk, ghee, blanket, money on Paush Amavasya. It is said that due to Pitra Dosh, life is surrounded by troubles but Shraddha ritual performed on Amavasya gives freedom from it. The lineage increases.
Work will be completed by worshiping Peepal tree – Many times, due to Pitra Dosh or the displeasure of the ancestors, the progress of the family stops and obstacles start coming in the auspicious work. In such a situation, on Paush Amavasya, water the Peepal tree by mixing milk, rice and black sesame seeds in water. Light an oil lamp under the Peepal tree in the evening. This ends the darkness of life. Saturn is also pleased and with the blessings of ancestors the family progresses.
Bathing – On Paush Amavasya, take bath by pouring Ganga water in river Ganga or at home. This results in health. Make offerings for the ancestors.
