vijay,

there is one brahmatheertham in triplicane, where i have done karyams. i have also done karyams at royapuram, and i find the one at triplicane far better.

still, it is the best of a bad choice. the places are depressingly unclean, and reminds us of ourselves 100 years or so ago in attitudes and hygiene.

also in triplicane, i witnessed one of the most gory sites associated with ensuing widowhood. one young woman was dragged by her hair to a waiting barber, who in front of everyone cut her locks, much to her weeping, and even more hysterical breastbeating by her mother (i presume). the young man who dragged her, i found out was her brother.

my sister who was with me, freaked out. i myself was shocked beyond words.

hope, as a community, 100%, we are beyond such barbarity.

still, i would chose triplicane over the others. any day.

i personally think, it is best, to put in all 12 days together, and do it on the 12th day at home. it is equally good in its standing, and helps preserve somewhat the dignity of the rites. i found that doing the rites at the theerthams, somewhat demeaning. to myself.

this post just reflects another post in another thread that it may be the men who force certain restrictions on the women in the name of tradition and philosophy. i could bet that the book sankaran is looking for is written by a male.

so, when the man of the house dies, the women get a sense of freedom and empowerment. i have seen it with my own relations. sad, that the male folk are so insensitive and cruel, that they do not have a clue of the aspirations of their female relatives, and even when told, tread roughshod over it.
