Pitru Paksha 2025: How To Do Tarpan For Deceased Family Member Who Had Akaal Mrityu Or Untimely Death?

Pitru Paksha 2025: Unexpected difficulties can arise for families when a loved one dies young or suddenly. If the correct rituals, like tarpan, are not done, it can result in Pitra Dosh, which may cause trouble like health or money problems or strained relationships. According to religious texts, Pitru Paksha is a good time to alleviate these issues. If someone in your family died unexpectedly or had Akaal Mriytu, doing a special tarpan during Pitru Paksha is important to satisfy their soul.

It is believed that if someone died too soon, tarpan should be performed for that soul on the Chaturdashi tithi of Pitru Paksha. This custom might keep the family safe from sudden problems and provide solace to those who have passed away.

Offering Tarpan and performing charity in the names of these ancestors is highly significant during Pitru Paksha. By doing this, people can lessen the effects of Pitra Dosh. Astropatri shares the vidhi to perform tarpan for the deceased family members who had Akal Mrityu or untimely death.
