WHY DO PEOPLE SUFFER EVEN AFTER DOING PITRA PUJA?

Many people including Brahmins suffer from the Pitra Dosha or Pithru Dosham, despite performing Pithru Puja on those stipulated days. It is quite ironical to note that Archakas despite doing their noble duties, also suffer from this agony.

What could be the reason? Could the concept of Pitra Dosha or Pithru Dosham be wrong? Let us find out the answer for these million dollar question.

Our Vedas has clearly stated that the punishment of comitting the sin for each and every person irrespective of caste and creed. But at the same time, it stipulates harsher punishment for Brahmins (those who follow vedic principles) higher than a common person for the similar type of sin. This is because, Brahmins are supposed to be the torch bearers of Vedic principle. The Vedas keeps Brahmins in a higher position for their rightdoing and harsher punishment for their wrongdoing.

1. One can not do Pitra Puja or Pithru Puja and simultanouely commit sins. Pitra Puja or Pithru puja becomes defunct while a person keeps himself busy with all wrongdoings. For example if a temple priest does puja and give attention only to those, who offers him money actually earns huge wrath of God. Even if he perform puja to the God and the ancestors, the Pitra Dosha or Pithru Dosham would never wipe out; in fact it grows on each passing day. This principle applies to all of whom are born in this world.

2. Pitra Puja or Pithru Puja must be done with love, affection and piousness. The results of puja are not defined by the huge money spent on lavish puja or homam. The departed souls look for the love, affection and attention; here the money does not hold any value for them.

3. Doing Pitru Puja or Pithru Puja through proxies, despite the person is in fine health and sufficient wealth to accomplish those Pitru Pujas or Pithru Pujas. Any one hiding behind some lame duck excuses, will not get any positive results for the Pitra Puja or Pithru Puja being done by him/her.

4. The Vedas clearly states that we should not hold any anger, frustration and bitterness towards the departed anscestors, even if they had wronged us, while they were alive. By retaining the anger and bitterness by any family member will automatically negate all the benefits that are due from Pitra Puja or Pithru Puja done by their entire family members.
