During <em>Pitru Paksha<\/em> (<em>Shradh Paksha<\/em>), a special <em>Shradh<\/em> ritual is performed on specific tithis each day.<\/p>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\">The <em>Saptami tithi<\/em> holds particular significance and is also known as <em>Ghat Saptami<\/em>. On this day, the <em>Shradh<\/em> is dedicated to those ancestors who passed away on the <em>Saptami tithi<\/em>. It is believed that performing <em>Shradh<\/em> on this day not only satisfies the departed souls but also brings happiness and prosperity to the family.<\/p>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\">The <em>Kutup<\/em> period during <em>Pitru Paksha<\/em> is considered the most auspicious time for performing <em>Shradh<\/em> and <em>Tarpan<\/em>, as it is closely associated with the ancestors.
