Thread: Pithur tharpanam

Always give importance to pithur karya. What will you if varalakshmi vrdham and srardham coincides??? You have to do srartham now and next week pooja can be done. Similar logic can be applied here. At any cost we should not make our pithrus to wait...

Please find enclosed sangalpa manthram for Tharpanam for rest of the year.

I hope it is correct. If not, I request the concerned experts to correct it.

All the best

This time amavasai and "aipasi" vishu punyakalam are coinciding on the same day i.e. Sat, 17th oct 2009. Those who perform pithru tharpanam have a doubt as to whether only one tharpanam is to be performed or both.

Only one Tharpanam -- sangrmana (maasa pirappu) tharpanam -- needs to be done.

The less frequent shraddham gets the precedence. Each sangramanam occurs only once a year, whereas Amavasyai is 12 times a year.

My Father always has a doubt about the placement of Koorcham representing his parents during tharpanams. Can anyone clarify with sketches as to which side should face South? The one with a ring or the ends with straight ends?
Thanks & Respects
Padmanab Sridhar

the side with straight end should face the south. Hope I am correct. Otherwise I seek pardon and me please updated correctly.

Should we first do Amavasi Tharpanam on 17/10/2009 and then have oil bath for GANGA SNANAM. Which should take preceedence.
Kindly can any one clarify.

Ganga snanam is supposed to be taken about 4 to 2 nAzigai before sunrise. Tharpanam is supposed to be done during kuthapa kalam, i.e. about 11 a.m. So, Ganga snanam has to come first, before sunrise. Then, another snanam is supposed to be done before Tharpanam at about 11 a.m. Until this time the one doing Thanrmpanam is supposed to not eat or drink anything.

Can anyone guide me asto which site will chant amavasai tharpana mantras to follow and do at home. My son has been doing with the cassettes. Now he wants to download and follow the correct procedure.

Lakshmi

Even in this Tamil Brahmins site we have the Amavasya Tharpanam under the Devotional Songs.
