What is Tripindi Shraddha?
Tripindi Shraddha is a shraddha for the souls of ancestors of the last three generations whose rites were missed or who are not at peace. It is the main remedy for pitru dosha and is performed at home, or at teerthas such as Prayagraj, Trimbakeshwar, Gaya and Kashi.
Where annual shraddhas have not been done for many years, or a family faces repeated obstacles that the horoscope links to pitru dosha, the shastras prescribe Tripindi Shraddha. Three pindas — of barley, rice and sesame — are offered to Brahma, Vishnu and Rudra on behalf of the unknown ancestors.
