How does The Pitru Dosa cause problems in one’s life?

Pitru Dosha is not a curse from our ancestors, as often misunderstood. Instead, it represents a karmic debt that we inherit from our forefathers.

A few signs of dormant energy of planets are hindrance in attaining success even with multiple efforts, financial burden, challenges to manage financial responsibilities at home and with family, breaks in relationships, and chronic health issues which indicates blockages in your lineage in the form of dosa/affliction, also known as lineage curse or Pitru Dosa/Affliction.

NOTE: Pitru dosa not only comes from the paternal family it can be from maternal Pitru Dosa.

When our ancestors committed mistakes, crimes, or vices during their lifetimes, these actions leave an imprint on the succeeding lineage. As their descendants, we are bound to experience the consequences of their deeds. These effects can manifest in various aspects of our lives such monetary loss, chronic health issues, relationship breaks because of extramarital affairs, divorce, or miscarriage in the family.

However, remember that Pitru Dosha does not just bring challenges, it also offers opportunities for personal growth and contribution to family and society. By understanding and addressing these karmic debts, we can work towards balancing our lives.

Remedies & Suggestions for Pitru Dosa

Adopting slight changes in your daily routine can help you get rid of Pitru Dosa, for instance:
