In this article, you will learn how the simple ancestral ritual of Tarpanam can honor your lineage, dissolve karmic patterns, and bring new possibilities into your life.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cSuccess and failure are related to what you think and what you do. That\u2019s for sure. But the problem is, are you completely in charge of what you are thinking or doing? You are not.\u201d \u2013 Dr. Pillai<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>What Is Mahalaya New Moon?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThere is a special period of time when the departed souls of your ancestors come to the Earth Plane and this very important for everybody\u2014for the Kings, for the lay people, for the Yogis. It\u2019s important for those of you who are wanting relationship, or are facing problems in relationship, might want to take advantage of this two week period of \u2018Mahalaya Amavasya\u2019, the \u2018Mahalaya New Moon Time.\u201d &#8211; Dr. Pillai<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <\/span>Mahalaya New Moon (Mahalaya Amavasya)<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is a sacred 15-day period when ancestors return to the earth plane. Spiritual traditions say that during this time, they are closest to us, influencing our thoughts, actions, and fortunes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dr. Pillai explains that success and failure are not entirely in our control. Much of our life is shaped by ancestral influences carried within us.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Soul Genetics: How Ancestors Influence Us<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThe gene remembers black eyes, dark skin, curly hair, and Japanese or Chinese eyes versus Asian or Caucasian eyes. All these are defined within the genes. So the genes have their own brain. Just as there is a lineage on the level of the genes, there is a biological lineage. There is the inheritance of the soul. This is called \u2018Soul Genetics.\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The ancestors, although their bodies are dead, are still living in another dimension in a soul form. Your soul is connected to theirs because, by the standards of Soul Genetics, they are the same soul. In other words, the thoughts that you are thinking may not be even your thoughts; it may be the thoughts of your parents, who are now no more, or your grandparents, or great-great-grandparents.\u201d &#8211; Dr. Pillai<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Science acknowledges that we inherit diseases and traits from our parents and grandparents through genes. But genes also carry energy and intelligence, which extend beyond biology.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dr. Pillai calls this <\/span><b>Soul Genetics<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2014ancestral memory passed down through generations. This inheritance affects:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thoughts and emotions<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Actions and decisions<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fortune or misfortune<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Success or failure<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Understanding and honoring this inheritance is key to shifting our destiny.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Mahalaya Ritual: The Power of Tarpanam<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIf I have to recommend one solution for every one of our problems, be it financial, relationship, or health, it is doing Tarpanam (offerings to the ancestors).You can sit and meditate for five hours a day, but you won\u2019t get the same results that you get in one minute of Tarpanam,\u201d &#8211; Dr. Pillai<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The most important practice during Mahalaya is <\/span><strong>Tarpanam<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the offering ritual for ancestors. Using simple items like black sesame seeds, rice, and water, you can nourish your ancestors and release karmic blocks.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dr. Pillai calls Tarpanam the greatest ritual he has ever taught because it has the power to:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dissolve ancestral karma<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Clear negative thought patterns<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bring peace to departed souls<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Change fortune and success in life<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><b>Why Mahalaya Is the Best Time<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Performing Tarpanam at any time is beneficial, but the <\/span><strong>15 days of Mahalaya Amavasya<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> are especially powerful. Ancestors are more receptive, and offerings have a greater impact.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some specialists can even see and communicate with ancestral spirits, offering personalized insights.
