What is Pitra Dosha?
When the soul of an ancestor (ancestors) of a person does not get peace, he is considered to be Pitra Dosha. This defect can be caused due to many reasons, such as the ancestors do not perform Shraddha methodically, a ritual remains incomplete after their death, or their dissatisfaction. Pitra dosha can cause many problems in the family, such as lack of money, delay in marriage, child problems and persistent diseases.
