Purnima Shraddha, a significant observance for honoring ancestors, will occur on September 17, 2024, marking the start of the Pitru Paksha festival, which lasts until October 2. This sacred day is believed to be when the souls of ancestors return to Earth, with rituals such as Tarpan and Pinddaan performed to seek their blessings. The Purnima Tithi begins at 11:44 AM on September 17 and ends at 08:04 AM the following day, with auspicious timings (Muhurat) outlined for performing rituals. In Patna, the International Pitripaksh Mela will also commence on the same day, attracting thousands of pilgrims to perform rituals at Punpun Ghat. Participants are advised against starting new ventures during this period, as it is traditionally considered inauspicious for purchases and new beginnings. The event highlights the cultural importance of honoring deceased relatives and ensuring their peace and salvation through dedicated practices.
