Remedies For Pitru Dosha or ancestor curse

When does Pitru Dosha Occur?

If there is an unnatural (like accident) or immature death (fatal or child death) occurs for a native, the soul will not reach the source until when it is supposed to go out of this world natually. It means only the body disappears but the soul will reside earth. This is also called as suspended souls or Pitras or Pitrus.

Besides even though if it is a natural death, if the native's forefathers / ancestors will not attain peace due to dissatifcation in some cases. This "dissatifcation" can be becasue of lack of rituals, untolerable pain, strong desires that are not fullfilled, during their last days of their life. Also it does not have to your forefathers, can be your close friends or family friends or relatives or lived closer to you.

We can say the souls which not attained peace, will follow their next generation people or anyone else having weak planet positions on their horoscope. Knowingly or unknowlingly those natives (who are followed by pitrus) are responsible for making sure that the souls reach peace. Otherwise the natives will see big losses and misfortunes and obstacles in everything they do. If a native suffers from such effects, it is called Pitru Dosham.

Do I have Pitru Dosham on My chart?

Experienced astrologers can guide you whether you have got pitru dosham on your chart or not. If you have got complete benefic 9th house, then you will not have pitru dosham. Rahu, Saturn or Sun or Maraka or Bhadaka are responsible for creating Pitru Dosham. It is bit difficult to explain for me since there are so many rules. It is better to have your chart looked up by your astrologer.

Why did I get Pitru Dosha?

This is another frequently asked question. But the answer is very simple and it caused by you in your previous birth. You might have done the following activities in your previous birth.

1. Sexual relationship with anyone except your spouse.

2. Extra Marital Affairs.

3. Cheating in love or marital relationship.

4. Killing people.

5. Excessive eating of Non-Veg food.

6. Cheating people to attain money, more wealth and other pleasures.

I am including one more point to this list:

7. Getting Married by making parents unhappy - Note that this one will not cause pitru dosha for you. But your kids will suffer from Pitru Dosham.

Effects of Pitru Dosha?

1. Delay in getting married for no valid reasons.

2. Fatal death, miscarriage.

3. Failures even after many attempts. [Like if you toss a coin 10 times, all 10 times you will come up with wrong result, even though winning probability is 50%]

4. Repeated finanicla loss in business or investments, etc.

5. Depression, mental anxiety disorder, etc. Even after medical treatment, there will not be any relief or improvements.
