✨ Success in Profession | Career Dharma | Respect for Elders
🔱 Honoring the Ones Who Led the Way
The 10th day of Pitru Paksha, known as Dashami Shraddha, is a sacred time to offer gratitude to ancestors who worked hard, led families or communities, taught wisdom, or upheld dharma in their worldly duties.
This tithi is a gateway to professional success and career clarity—not through hustle or ambition, but through ancestral alignment.
💼 What if your career path is blocked not because of skill, but because of an unseen karmic weight?
🕯️ Who is Honored on Dashami?
- Ancestors who passed on the 10th lunar day (Dashami tithi)
- Teachers, guides, scholars, and priests
- Community leaders, professionals, farmers, healers, warriors
- Fathers, grandfathers, or matriarchs who carried the burden of responsibility
- Mentors or elders who were not honored in their time
This is also a powerful day to make offerings for those who led silently, worked tirelessly, and left without due recognition.
🌿 Why It Matters
Our career choices, visibility, confidence, and success are deeply tied to ancestral blessings.
Unhealed lineage pain from:
- Not being appreciated at work
- Dying with unfinished goals
- Being betrayed or shamed in their profession
…can silently block your path.
When you honor their service, heal their humiliation, and offer light, you open your own path to purpose.
🔥 Rituals for Dashami Shraddha
Here’s how to align with this powerful energy:
- Tarpana: Offer water with sesame seeds and mantras
- Pinda Daan: 3 rice balls offered on banana leaf, especially to working ancestors
- Light a diya facing East (symbol of dharma and sunrise)
- Offer gratitude to mentors, teachers, or elders—living or passed
📿 Mantra for the Day:
“Om Namo Bhagavate Vasudevaya”
(A powerful mantra to restore spiritual alignment, inner clarity, and divine support)

✨ Final Thought
