Pitru Paksha Pitru Pati Shiv Trimbakeshwar-Pashupatinath Chadhava

In Sanatan Dharma, Brahma creates, Vishnu preserves, but blessings of moksha rests with Shiva—the Ādi and Anta. That is why rituals for ancestors remain incomplete without his grace. During Pitru Paksha, your selected Chadhava will be offered at two of Shiva’s most powerful shrines; Trimbakeshwar Jyotirlinga and Pashupatinath.

At Pashupatinath, Lord Shiva is revered as the father of all beings, protector across life and death. His worship during Pitru Paksha grants wandering souls rest and shelter. At Trimbakeshwar Jyotirlinga, scriptures affirm that tarpan and chadhava liberate not only immediate ancestors but distant generations burdened by karmic debts. Rishis declared that Pitru rituals performed here equal countless offerings elsewhere.

Chadhava at both these temples ensure that Pitrus attain peace and are guided towards moksha. For descendants, this seva removes ancestral debts and offers blessings of prosperity, stability, and divine protection.
