Today's Panchang 8 September 2025: It is Monday, September 8, 2025, marking the Krishna Paksha Pratipada Tithi of the Ashwin month. Today is the first day of Pitru Paksha and with this, Lord Shiva and Mother Parvati will be worshipped today. Pitru Paksha begins from Pratipada. Performing Tarpan, Pinddaan and Shradh of ancestors on this day gives the virtue of the entire fortnight. This day is especially useful for those ancestors whose death date is unknown or whose Shradh could not be performed properly. Performing Shradh and Tarpan of ancestors gives freedom from Pitra Dosha and brings peace and prosperity in the family.

Today's Panchang 8 September 2025: Start of the Pitru Paksha
Pitru Paksha is a sacred period in Hinduism dedicated to praying for the peace of our ancestors' souls and honoring them. This period begins on Amavasya and continues for 15 days, also known as 'Shraddha Kaal'. During this time, we honor our ancestors by fasting and performing Shraddha rituals. Giving to charity during Pitru Paksha is believed to be particularly rewarding. Through charitable acts, we not only bring peace to our ancestors' souls but also invite positive energy and happiness into our lives. During this sacred period, performing Shraddha rituals at home, offering food and donations to Brahmins, and meditating in remembrance of our ancestors is considered highly auspicious. Pitru Paksha serves as a reminder that the happiness and prosperity we enjoy in life are made possible by our ancestors' blessings.
