Tripindi Puja is a profound ancestral rite that consolidates Shraddha offerings for three generations of Pitras — father, grandfather, and great-grandfather — granting them peace and moksha while removing Pitra Dosha from their descendants.
Performed at Kashi's Pishachmochan Kund — where Lord Shiva is said to have freed a Brahmin's ancestors from a ghostly form — this puja is considered especially potent for pitra moksha and dosha nivaran.
Sankalp: The Pandit recites the Gotra and lineage details before Lord Ganesh is invoked.
Three Pind Offerings: Pindas of rice, til (sesame), and other samagri are offered for the father, grandfather, and great-grandfather.
Tarpan: Water offerings are made to the three generations of ancestors at Pishachmochan Kund.
Brahmin Bhojan & Visarjan: The rite concludes with a Brahmin feast and immersion of the pindas in the Ganga.
Pitra Dosha Removal: Karmic debts tied to incomplete ancestral rites are dissolved, restoring harmony to the family line.
Family Prosperity: Descendants report relief from unexplained obstacles in health, progeny, and finances after this puja.
Ancestral Peace: The three generations of Pitras attain peace and moksha, freeing them from the Pret Yoni.
