How much do we do to dress ourselves up during the festival? It is also customary to decorate the house. The house is made sparkling clean by cleaning the dust. Some even give the house a completely new look. House cleaning starts before Durga Puja. But the question is only one, can the father clean the house at all. Or at the end of Pitra Paksha i.e. after Mahalaya the house has to be cleaned. There is doubt about it. You don't know what to do either, but know what the scriptures say.
According to scholars, almost everyone has various misconceptions about fatherhood. According to that misconception, some people don't want to clean the house. Because water is given to the ancestors at this time, many householders do not clean the jhul. Many people believe that the house can be cleaned after Mahalaya. There is no harm in that. So if you have time, you can clean the house even before Mahalaya.
On October 10, Saturday, Sarvapitra Amavasya or Mahalaya will be celebrated. This is the last lagna of the father. For those who do not know the specific date or time of their ancestors' death, according to the scriptures this Sarvapitra can perform Tarpana and Shraddhakarma only in Amavasya. There is an equal amount of virtue in it. Some items must be removed from the house before Mahalaya. Good luck will return. Throw away broken clocks, broken dishes, torn clothes, old irons. It removes negative energy. Life will be filled with positive energy.
