Is #Pitru #Dosha real or hoax ?
Saw some astrologer suggesting people to change astrologer if they are talking about pitru dosham. Seer suggested that mother and father will never hurt their child so how come pitru Dosha is effective?
My advice to those astrologers Go STUDY

I am hereby attaching shlokas from Phala Deepika , Santan deepika , Prashna Marga .
Few of the reasons quoted in these texts are Dev Shrapa, Brahman Shrapa, Sarpa Shrapa , Shatru Shrapa and Pitru Shrapa ( matru Shrapa included)

As per Santan Dipika ,
Lagna trikonege mande tatha maandiyute yadi !
Shubhairnirikshite vidhyaat pitrushapaat sutakshaya !!
Meaning - Sa in 1/5/9 with maandi and without beneficial aspects , curse of #pitru is the reason for childlessness . #astrology

Matru sthangate paape suteshe mandsainyute
Sute paap samayukte matru kopaat sutakshaya

Meaning - malefic in 4 and 5, 4L with Sa, curse of mother is the reason of childlessness / harm to children .

Prashna marga states the below shloka. This clearly indicates that Pitru shrapa is one of the reason for not having progeny .

As per jatak desh marga , Pitrus needs to be propitiated for begetting a child if santana tithi is coming to amavasya .

7/n
As per phaladeepika too propitiation of Pitru is important to beget the child as per Santan tithi calculation.

My take :
There are enough evidences in several classics that indicates pitru Dosha as the reason for problems in life. If 5th is involved it becomes bad for children / happiness from children . Similarly , involvement of other lords like 10th, 2nd,7th can indicate trouble..

9/n
.. on account of pitru shrapa or dosha if dosha conditions are met and there is no overriding factors .
As per nadi too - saturn / sun /moon and connection to Rahu ketu should be evaluated properly .

Finally , if I have to really follow the guidelines then I would prefer classics and seasoned astrologers over self proclaimed , twitter fame newbees . Beware of such pseudo-intellectuals along with false fear mongers.

#Pitrupaksha is given importance in our sanskriti. One may read Dharm sindhu to understand why we should take these seriously.
Ps : This post is not to scare anyone but to make us aware of our duties towards our ancestors 🙏

It's not about mother or father hurting us - it's about our karma that we did to earn that agony. Pitru dosham indicates our neglect that hurt our elders in last life and that's why we are born with certain combination in this life.
