Darsha Amavasya Katha
In ancient times the reindeer were the spirits who lived on the Somrose. Once Barishdas conceived and gave birth to a baby girl whose name was Achhoda. She remained unhappy because she did not have a father and as a result, she wished for the father’s love. She used to cry a lot. The spirits in Pitru Loka advised her to be born as the daughter of King Amavasu on Earth.
She followed his advice and was born as the daughter of King Amavasu, a great king. As per his wish, he received the love and care of his father and felt satisfied. As his wish was fulfilled, he decided to thank the Pitras for their valuable advice and so arranged Pitra Puja for the inmates of Pitru Loka, known as Shraddha.
Shraddh is performed on the day when the moon is not visible and thus begins to be known as Amavas on that day. Since then, the custom of offering Shraddha to the ancestors started on Amavasya day.
