Garuda Purana
Garuda Purana: Death is the biggest and final truth of this world. Whatever living being has come into this world in any form, its death is certain, but after death the journey of the living being ends only on earth. After death the journey of the soul of that living being begins. This is described in Garuda Purana. Garuda Purana is included in the 18 Mahapuranas, in which the journey of the soul after death is explained in detail.
It is believed that after the death of a person, his soul does not leave this earth immediately. The soul stays around its family and home for 13 days. In Hindu religion, many special rituals are performed after death for this very reason. It is said that by performing these rituals, the soul of the deceased attains peace and the blessings of the ancestors remain on the family.
The soul leaves the house on the 13th day
According to Garuda Purana, the 13th day after death has special significance. It is believed that this is the day when the soul sees home and family for the last time and leaves. Therefore, on the thirteenth day, rituals like worship, Pind Daan and Brahmin feast are performed. It is also believed that on this day ancestors come to see their family. This is the reason why on this day it is said to keep the atmosphere of the house calm and pure.
Don’t make these mistakes
It is advised to take care of some special things till the thirteenth day. On this day, people are asked not to spread filth in the house. It is said to keep the puja room clean. It is forbidden to cry alone at night or call out repeatedly to a dead person. Religious experts believe that committing these mistakes can harm the soul of the deceased. Not only this, by repeatedly making noise, the attachment of the deceased soul increases and it may face difficulty in attaining peace.
