YELLOW and BROWN provide stability and are best suited for days when you need to take important decisions. If you are at a much higher level in the hierarchy then these colours will be very beneficial for you.

On the day of presentation, black colour should be avoided. Most of the professionals own a black or navy blue business suit.

SHRADDHA (PITRU) PAKSHA

Pitru Paksha literally means the "fortnight of the ancestors". It is a 16 day lunar period in Hindu calendar when they pay homage to their ancestor Pitrus, especially through food offerings. Pitru Paksha is considered by Hindus to be very inauspicious, during which the death rite or Shraddha/Tarpan is performed during the ceremony. It falls in the 2nd paksha or fortnight of Hindu lunar month of Bhadrapada (September) and follows the fortnight immediately after the Ganesh festival.

The performance of Shraddha by a son during Pitru Paksha is regarded as compulsory by Hindus, to ensure that the soul of the ancestor goes to heaven. According to the scripture Markandeya Purana, if the ancestors are content with the shraddhas, they will bestow health, wealth, knowledge and longevity, and ultimately heaven and salvation or Moksha upon the performer. This year, the dates for the Shraddha are from 13th to 28th September.

The food offerings made to the ancestors are usually cooked in silver or copper vessels and typically placed on a banana leaf or cups made of dried leaves. The food must include kheer which is a type of sweet rice and milk, a sweet porridge made of wheat grains and khichdi made of rice, dal (lentils), the vegetable of spring bean and a yellow gourd (pumpkin).
