PITRU DOSH / PITRA DOSH

I !till remember the day and the moment!, when I took *Pitru Do!h +ivaran
Dik!ha* from Param Pujya Gurudev, on Guru Purnima ,hibir" It wa! really an
ama(ing moment"""- In the !hibir, Pujya Gurudev e.lained many a!ect! of
Pitru Do!h"

It al!o reminded me that Param Pujya Gurudev Dr" +arayan Dutt ,hrimaliji
al!o a!ked everybody to do *Pitru Do!h +ivaran* !adhna for many many
many time!" If Pujya Gurudev him!elf wa! highlighting Pitru Do!h for many
time!, then all of u! !hould under!tand the criticalne!! of thi! do!h"

#et u! under!tand what i! Pitru Do!h / )hy it i! !o critical / )hat are the
e0ect! of Pitru Do!h on one1! life / 2ow to remove ob!tacle! occurred from
Pitru Do!h /


How Pitru Dosh Occurs ?

%here are many way! by which Pitru Do!h can occur" According to general
information from variou! Puran, Pitru Do!h occur! when the !oul of our
ance!tor! and dearted forefather! doe! not get eace 3 !hanti 4 due to any
of the following main rea!on, and there may be other!"

354 Bad deed! 3 bad karma 4 of our ance!tor! in earlier life, knowingly or
unknowingly, are embarra!!ing their !oul!,
364 Bad deed! 3 bad karma 4 of children, knowingly or unknowingly, are
embarra!!ing the !oul of ance!tor!,
374 #ack of fulflment! of arental de!ire! of our ance!tor!,
384 A !udden and unnatural death of any relative ance!tor! in early age,
394 If !omeone fail! to remember and honour the ance!tor! roerly,
3:4 If certain wi!he! are remained attached with the !oul of the
ance!tor!, etc"

It i! !tated in the ancient te.t that Pitru Do!h occur! if any ance!tor! u to
the ;th generation on the father<! !ide and u to the 8th generation on the
mother<! !ide have e.ired at an early age or have had an unnatural death"

=ur ance!tor! are not only our family member! or relative!, but al!o our
teacher!, mentor!, role model! , friend!, and guardian!, who have
contributed to our welfare and growth in thi! or reviou! life" %hi! create! an
imlied obligation on u! to re!ect them and their arental de!ire! and call!
for following good deed!" If by any chance thi! i! not followed by anyone, it
may embarra!! the !oul! of the ance!tor!, which, in turn, become! Pitru
Do!h"

How to identify if someone is sufering from Pitru Dosh ?

%he e0ect of Pitru Do!h can al!o be found u!ing the 'edic A!trology"
According to 'edic A!trology, Pitru Do!h occur! when ,un and $oon i!
a>icted with ?ahu and @etu" It al!o ha! a direct connection with 2indu
$ythology"

According to 2indu $ythology, the A$?A% 3 Potion of Immortality 4 came out
of the ocean during ,A$A+D?A $A+%2A+" #ord 'i!hnu took $=2I+I ?==P
3 #ook of a BeautifulB$e!meri(i ng #ady 4 to di!tract the DA+A'! 3 Cvil! 4 and
!ub!eDuently !tarted di!tributing A$?A% among DC'! 3 Good 4 and DA+A'!,
!tarting with DC'!" =ne DA+A' feared that the DA+A'! will not get the
A$?A% and will get over by their turn" %herefore he changed hi! getu like
DC'! and !at between ,A?&A DC' 3 ,un 4 and E2A+D?A DC' 3 $oon 4" ,urya
Dev and Ehandra Dev recogni(ed the DA+A' and informed #ord 'i!hnu in
$ohini ?oo, who u!ed hi! weaon ,ADA?,2A+ E2A@?A to cutBo0 DA+A'<!
head" 2owever he already drank the A$?A%, he became immortal and then
from that time onward! the head i! known a! ?A2A and the tail i! known a!
@C%A" Cver !ince that time onward! ?ahu and @etu are bittere!t enemie! of
,un and $oon" ,ince than, ?ahu and @etu are trying to uni!h ,un and $oon,
and trie! to !wallow ,un and $oon"

?ahu and @etu are not lanet!" %hey are actually the inter!ection oint! of
the orbit of the $oon and the ellitic" %he inter!ection oint! in the north i!
called ?ahu or the north node or the dragon1! head and the inter!ection
oint! in the !outh i! called @etu or the !outh node or the dragon1! tail"
Indian ,aint! and ?i!he! have given them the !tatu! of lanet! !ince the!e
oint! have great inFuence on the live! of individual! and are called E22A&A
G?A2 3 ,hadow Planet! 4 or @armic lanet!" ?ahu and @etu are re!on!ible
for certain bad yoga! in the horo!coe of individual!"

%he ,aint! and ?i!he! have woven many fact! in the mythology to give a
meaning of ,olar 3 ,un 4 and #unar 3 $oon 4 Ccli!e" Another meaning i! that
?ahu give! the re!ult at a co!t of lo!ing the body" And @etu give! the re!ult at
a co!t of lo!ing the head" $ean!, the er!on under the e0ect of ?ahu or @etu
ha! to loo!e one thing to get another" Additionally, whenever there i! any
kind of connection between ?ahu G @etu and ,un G $oon, it mo!tly give!
inau!iciou! re!ult!"

At the core of A!trology, Pitru Do!h i! one tye of &oga, which i! formed by
variou! combination! and lacement! of lanet! and hou!e!" A! er
A!trology !y!tem, ,un i! the !ymbol of Hather" Hurthermore, the 5Ith hou!e
in the horo!coe al!o indicate! Hather and related a!ect!" 2ence, if any
negative combination of ,un or the 5Ith hou!e, indicate! re!ence of !ome
kind of Pitru Do!h"

Pitru Do!h &oga i! formed when ?ahu and @etu are with any of the lanet and
are laced in the :th, Jth and the 56th hou!e" $any a time!, thi! yoga i! al!o
formed in the 9th hou!e" In another combination, when Kth hou!e, Kth lord,
Kth hou!e from the moon or the lord of Kth hou!e from the moon i! under
inFuence of ?ahu and @etu thi! indicate! Pitru Do!h" Aart from thi! it i! al!o
!aid that if ?ahu i! !ituated in 6nd, :th Jth and 56th hou!e then it i!
con!idered a! Pitru Do!h"

At many lace!, ,aturn i! al!o hold eDually re!on!ible for di0erent form! of
Pitru Do!h" )hen ,un and ,aturn are in the !ame hou!e, or having Dri!hti
3 a0ecting each other 4, it i! al!o con!idered a! Pitru Do!h"

,aturn al!o rere!ent! our ance!tor!" If ,aturn i! a>icting $oon then redict
that Pitru Do!h i! from maternal !ide, while if ,aturn i! a>icting ,un, then
redict that the Pitru Do!h i! from aternal !ide" Hor thi! to haen, the 9th
lordLhou!e !hould al!o be a>icted"

According to Brihat Para!ara 2ora ,ha!tra, the variou! cur!e! from reviou!
