New Delhi: Devotees, September 21 is here! This year, Pitra Moksha Amavasya—also called Sarvapitri Amavasya or Mahalaya Amavasya—is the perfect day to honor your ancestors with Shradh.
If you missed performing Shradh during Pitra Paksha, this Pitra Moksha Amavasya 2025 gives you one last chance. People believe that performing Shradh on this day brings peace to ancestors’ souls and good luck, happiness, and prosperity to your family.
Priests say this day is for all ancestors, including:
- Those whose death date is unknown
- Ancestors whose Shradh could not be done earlier
- Ancestors who died suddenly or in accidents
- Ancestors without descendants, or children, women, sages, and gurus
Best Time for Shradh
This year, the Amavasya Tithi starts at 12:16 pm on September 21 and lasts until 1:23 pm on September 22. Performing Shradh in this period is considered most sacred.
Why You Should Do Shradh on This Day
Unlike other days of Pitra Paksha, one Shradh on Pitra Moksha Amavasya 2025 covers all ancestors. That’s why it is the most important day of the year as Doing Shradh on this day is believed to remove Pitradosha and bring blessings, peace, and good fortune to your family.
Millions of families across India use this day to connect with ancestors, pay respect, and seek blessings for a happy and prosperous life.
