Utilizing Amavasyas to pay off our Karmic Debt- our Pitru Roon…

There are many types of karmic debts that each one of us have- one of the key ones being Pitru Roon. i.e. ancestral debt. This is very important since we have received our bodies, our physical make up from our ancestors what we colloquially call our genetics. 
​
One of the best ways to pay off our Pitru roon is perform shraddha. This is a special prayer that is performed on the death anniversary of the person. There are many times where we may not know the death date of a person- particularly as we think of several prior generations ago- for e.g. you may not know the death date of your great grandfather. In all such instances, you can perform these special prayers during the Pitru Paksha. Please refer to our post on the Significance of Pitru Paksha for more details. 
​But, in addition to these two times, there is another time-phase which is great to work on reducing our ancestral karmic debt- our Pitru Roon! And that is during the dark fortnight each month. 

How do we perform these prayers?? Personally, what I have found immensely helpful is to simply offer food and water to our ancestors with usual prayers. Light a special lamp (diya) and an incense to specially offer them thanks and express gratitude- in plain language. 
Remember that ancestral debt or Pitru-roon is one of the key types of soul-debts (karmic debts) that we carry, and it is not possible to attain moksha without paying off this debt. Even though divine blessings and grace can eliminate all forms of karma and clear all our debts, doing these prayers and showing gratitude to our ancestors is a very simple and effective way to not only show love to our forefathers (who continue to live on through us) but also clear our ancestral debt, our Pitru roon- all in one go.

    Vedic Culture, which   is the culture of the original Himalayan Masters,    is one of the most advanced ancient civilizations.  It is a tradition which has given mankind several treasures such Yoga, Meditation, Conscious-Living and Vedic Sciences such as Ayurveda, Vedic Physics & Vedic Mathematics.

    It was always a scientific culture that understood the very mechanics and workings of this Universe. Their deities, their gods and goddesses were all a way of expressing and explaining these energies and their inter-working. Modern Quantum Mechanics is just starting to understand string theory, dark matter etc. which have all been fundamental to the Vedic understanding. Because of this, they developed ways and methods which allowed one to best tap into life-energy itself.

    Vedic Culture, as it was practiced by the Himalayan Masters, was always a "way of life" and not a religion.

    Their basic view was that, there is only ONE Supreme God-head (God as our creator) and each one of us can find our path to it- experience union with that divinity (Yoga) in their own way.

    Because of this, anyone with any religious affiliations and beliefs can still benefit from their knowledgeable ways of Vedic Wisdom.

    Our attempt here is to present this ancient wisdom in a modern light, so our readers can interpret the true, essential meaning more easily and then extrapolate it to their own specific scenarios and enhance the quality of their life and being-ness.
