Significance of Uttarayana and Shukla Paksha at the time of Passing Away

[Guest guest]

Dear Members,

 

Can some learned members of this group throw some light on the

significance of the desire to shed this mortal body when Uttarayana

and Shukla Paksha are prevailing? Is it something to do with the

belief that when the Soul of a Mumukshu leaves the body and is on

Archradi marga on its way to Paramapada? Could it be that, since it

has to be welcomed by Uttarayana Devatha and Shukla Paksha devatha,

and if the time happens to be Krishna Paksha and/or Dakshinayana, the

soul has to wait for the appropriate duration (ie 15 days and/or 6

months, as the case may be) to be able to meet these devathas and

hence delayed in reaching Paramapada?

 

Please pardon me if my questions are not appropriate.

 

Humble regards

 

Sheela
