Download or read book The Śrāddha written by and published by Motilal Banarsidass Publ.. This book was released on 1997 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of the sixteen samskaras which encompass a Hindu life the last one is performed for the dead by their sons or grandsons or relatives. Many passages in the Puranas and Dharmasastras extol the role of the son in the life of a devout Hindu. The present book deals with the rite of Sraddha and vindicates the popular belief that Sraddha, being an important topic, forms an integral part of Hindu Dharmasastra. The belief in the after death survival of deceased ancestors and their separate world belongs to the Indo Iranian period and as such is pre Vedic. Ancestor worship for one's prosperity, continuation of one's race, is as old as the Rgveda.
