The sacred month of Sawan is one of the most auspicious periods in Hinduism, especially for the worship of Lord Shiva and for seeking blessings from ancestors. Among the significant days of this holy month, Hariyali Amavasya holds special spiritual importance. Falling in the heart of the monsoon, this day is dedicated to nature worship, tarpan, and pinddaan to honor departed souls. Devotees believe that performing these rituals on this day helps their ancestors attain peace and showers blessings of prosperity, happiness, and success on their families.

Even if one cannot perform tarpan or pinddaan, the scriptures mention certain powerful remedies (upay) to gain the blessings of ancestors on Hariyali Amavasya. As shared by Pandit Anand Bhardwaj of Ujjain, these acts help remove Pitra Dosh, attract prosperity, and fulfill desires:

1. Plant a Peepal Tree for Pitra Dosh Nivaran

Those facing financial struggles are advised to plant Tulsi, Amla, Banana, and Bael trees on Hariyali Amavasya. This pleases Goddess Lakshmi, inviting wealth and abundance into the devotee’s life.
