My parents passed away few years back.In my family we are three girls and no male members. I heard from my brahmin friends that it is good to do Tharpanam in Gaya for late parents , grand parents and great grand parents.
- My question is being a woman, am I allowed to do tharpanam in Gaya.
- If yes followed by tharpanam must I do Thila Homam for Pithru Dosha? Must one have Pithru Dosha to do Thila Homam or we can do Thila Homam as I do not know if I have Pithru Dosha
- I cannot ask any of the male members like my uncles or cousin brothers to do as they do not believe in all these rituals and also I cannot ask them to do for my parents.
Please advice me on this.
