Pitra Dosha

On one Sunday, during my evening walk, I saw one of our neighbour Sh. Gupta ji, who was sitting on a bench of jogger’s park. He was looking very sad.

After completing my walk, I reached near to Gupta ji’s bench to tell him hello. But he replied in a very depressed way.

I asked him “Gupta ji you are looking very depressed today, everything is okey?”

He said that he was very much worried about his daughter’s marriage. He had been trying for her marriage for 5 years but still she is unmarried.

He went to explain that I had met to several pundits and astrologers but they said there is a very bad yoga present in her chart i.e. Pitra Dosha, which creates the obstacle in her marriage every time. 

Sir, did you hear about this yoga? He asked me.

Yes, I replied.

Can you explain it? He asked again.

I said okey.

I began to explain, Pitra Dosha or Rin Pitri means the ‘debts of the fore fathers’ meaning the sins done by one’s fore father. The future generations will suffer due to that. It is like the defect in the DNA, which is carried on by blood relatives.

How do I understand from the horoscope that this debt persists in any one’s chart? Gupta ji asked.

This can be judged by following,

Any malefic planet is in any bad house for almost all the family members.

Or the same type of condition or problem is happening with all family members.

Any example? He again asked.

For instance house no 2/5/9/12 which are ruled by Jupiter is occupied by the enemies of Jupiter that is Mercury, Rahu, Venus or Jupiter is sitting with these planets or sitting in the enemy ruled houses.

Or there is a habit of disrespecting the father in the family.

Or there are very few male children in the family.

Or family members suffer a lot when their hair starts to turn grey.

Or heredity of hair falls from the area where people used to keep long hair i.e. Choti.

Thus, in this case, one should follow the remedies those suggested for Jupiter Rin Pitri Dosha. 

Can you please give examples for other planets also? He requested.

I said, no it is too early for you to understand. But I promised that I would explain this concept in detail on some other day.
