On 23rd August 2025, we will observe the sacred day of Pithori Amavasya, also known as Pithori Vrat or Kushagrahani Amavasya. This day, falling in the Bhadrapada Krishna Paksha, holds deep significance in Sanatan Dharma — a day when the doors between ancestors and the living world become thin, allowing us to offer gratitude, seek blessings, and remove karmic obstacles.
While many perform Pitru Tarpan and the worship of the 64 Devi Maatrikas for the welfare of their children, one act is considered supremely powerful on this day — Gau Daan 🐄, the sacred donation or feeding of the holy cow.
🐄 Gau Daan: A Vedic Treasure Beyond Measure
The Vedas and Puranas describe the cow as Kamadhenu, the wish-fulfilling mother, embodying all devas and nourishing the universe.
-
The Garuda Purana states that performing Gau Daan on Amavasya frees the soul’s ancestors from difficulties in the afterlife and helps them cross the Vaitarani River.
-
The Skanda Purana proclaims Gau Daan to be equivalent to performing hundreds of yajnas.
-
The Bhavishya Purana explains that Gau Daan during Amavasya multiplies punya manyfold, as the blessings of both ancestors (Pitru Devatas) and Mother Devi converge.
Thus, on Pithori Amavasya, Gau Daan not only ensures ancestral peace but also blesses the living family with prosperity, health, and protection of children.
