Pitru Dosha and Parihara

When somebody tells me that they are going through a rough patch due to circumstance beyond their control, I tell them first to be sure that they are performing Sraddha for their ancestors regularly and whether they are following the Sumngali Prarathana done in their Homes.

As for as I know these are the prima facie reasons fo misfortune before we try doing any parihara

I have some articles on the subject.

Such is the seriousness of Pitrudosha that it can nullify the effects of Poojas and Punyapalas.
