Pitra Dosh

So, there was a request to write about Pitra Dosha, the concept and possible remedies. Most of the things I am going to write here are hearsay as none can have knowledge about past lives, unless he is enlightened. They say that as person becomes enlightened, all his past lives and his karmas into those lives get played before him. Even this thing is hearsay. I have no direct experience of any such process. 


So, here we go.


Pitra Dosha - So, here are some things I came to know about this concept -


1. They say that results/effects of our bad karma from past lives which we experience in this life is called Pitra Dosh. 
2. They say that effects of Pitra Dosh are experienced/suffered by 3 generations. Like, if I do any bad karma now then my next 3 generations may suffer due to my bad karma. 
3. Then it is said that 2nd house, 5th house, 9th house and 12th house in chart become important in forming Pitra Dosh. All these houses karaka is Jupiter. So if any of the enemies of Jupiter, like Mercury, Venus, Rahu and Saturn sit in these houses then it creates Pitra Dosh. 
4. Then each of these 4 planets in these houses cause some negative events in life as per the planets and houses involved. 
5. Then there is a separate remedy for separate planet and houses involved to reduce or nullify the impact of Pitra Dosh. 
6. Then they say about some generic remedies which can be common for all planets/houses like worshiping a Peepal (Fig) Tree which can also make you super rich if done in a particular hour of the day. 
7. And all this should be done preferably during Pitra Paksh so that souls of ancestors can be pleased.


Now as always, let me confuse you all a little bit  :D  :P


1. Let's go to the basics. Who decided your Date, Time and Place of Birth by which you got your chart? God/Universe/Source Energy. Would God do anything wrong for you? If planets are placed in certain way then it is soul's own choice and God's permission to the soul to go through that experience in this life. Hence, there can't be any Dosh inflicted by God.

2. What is bad karma and what is good karma? Most of the times it is our perception. Siddharth Gautam left his wife and kid to seek truth. Was it a good karma or bad karma?

But I understand that some karmas can be apparently bad like killing other person or cheating/betraying. But if I have done any bad karma in past lives then I can only balance it out by 
doing some good karma in this life. Actually, it should not be a bargain or deal between different lives karmas. I mean to say that I am supposed to do good karma anyways and in any life. I can't be motivated to do good karma under a presumptive threat that I might have done something wrong in past lives.

3. And this is where my main concern is. Who knows about past lives? I can't even know about my past lives and what I did there then how can I say anything about anyone's past lives just by looking at their chart. That's why I feel that most important is the present life we have in our hands. Even in this life if I was doing bad karma till today then I can change myself with this realization and start doing good acts because that is what I am supposed to do. God didn't send me here to kill or cheat or lie or be revengeful to others. So, my philosophy is always to do good karma now in this life because that is what you are supposed to do here regardless of what happened in your past lives.

4. Impacts over 3 generations?

What a revengeful and unjustified God It is. I did something wrong 3 generations back and my poor grand-kid will suffer without any of his/her fault. I thoroughly disagree with this logic.

5. Regarding Planetary Placements in charts?

I think we all are aware by now that every planet in any house or any sign does something good and something bad. Life, World & People are never black or white. They are Grey. Even Rahu in 5th house and Venus in 9th house (so-called Pitra Dosh Placements) created Sachin Tendulkar - https://www.astrosaxena.com/stendulkar and even person with only 1 Pitra Dosh Placement, i.e. Saturn in 2nd house (which they say that it doesn't create strong Pitra Dosha), created Rev Jim Jones - https://www.astrosaxena.com/jonestown. So, as I always say, look at the real life examples and experiences of people rather than going through only theory. I again say that theory is just matter of words and it depends on how wealthy I am with words. If I am good with words, I can screw any interpretation in my favor.

6. Now comes the Business and Ego Satisfaction.

The whole purpose behind this fear mongering in the names of all the doshas is to create business for Pundits and Gemstone sellers. To make them earn good money through scaring people in names of this or that Dosha. It is also a way of ego satisfaction that you have done this worship, hence you have controlled these planets.

If worshiping Peepal Tree at a particular time is really going to make us wealthy then India should be the wealthiest country of the world as all these worships take place 24x7 in India only. But the fact remains that India is under debt of US$ 513.4 billion at global level - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/External_debt_of_India. May be our Pundits are not finding the right Peepal Tree. I wonder where Bill Gates, Steve Jobs and Mark Zuckerberg found such a Tree?

Worship during Pitra Paksh - Worship your ancestors or God only for thanks giving. The moment you add anything more in your worship to receive from God or Ancestors then it is a bargain, not worship. If you are going to temple to ask for home or money, then you are concerned with home or money. You have no concern with God. Your worship is no more than bribing a Govt Officer to get things done. You are not treating God or your ancestors more than a Corrupt Govt Officer.

7. Finally, again the reason why people readily accept the concept of remedies or gemstones for every problem in life or so-called dosha in chart?

Because it is easy to spend 500 Rs once rather than working hard towards anything 24x7 and achieving success. If you really want to become rich like Ambanis then who prevented you from working like them non-stop, 24x7. Who prevented you from taking risks like Dhirubhai Ambani took or any businessman takes. But here is the problem. Why to do all that when Pundit ji is saying that Lakshmi ji is sitting on Peepal Tree to give me all the wealth. Right guys?

Just think this much, if that Pundit ji really knows that Lakshmi ji is sitting on that Peepal Tree at a particular time then why he is not doing same worship for himself and become super-rich so that he may not have to do all this again in his life?


So, take away points -


1. Present Life is most important. That's what you have in your hands. Past and Future Lives none knows. 
2. Do good karma regardless of anything. We are not here to deceive each other. 
3. True worship is thankfulness. 
4. True thanksgiving to ancestors will be to serve humanity and a higher cause. 
5. Rely on your hard work for prosperity and not on any rituals.
 

Thanks,
