Dear Sir,If your husband's chithappa is related through his father and not his mother (i.e. younger brother of your father in law), then you have 1 year theetu as the chithappa's son is a Thayathee. Ayush homam can be performed during this time, however, any pondugal or samarardhanai combined with that ayush homom cannot be done.
Trust that helps.
Actually speaking we should mourn every person dying, or celebrate the end of life as it is the beginning of a new life.
Because all human beings are connected (some you may know and others you might not know) so we should either have 360 days of theetu or none.
When a close family member or friend dies we do have some emotional connection, so there is nothing wrong if we mourn the death, that is human, so to take off few days from your normal life is acceptable.
The condition imposed by society is laughable at best.
My friend's father passed away 3 days before the friend's wedding. The father had insisted that marriage must go on. The vadyar agreed and marriage was performed.
I am not a traditionalist, I think rituals were created for a purpose if the purpose or circumstances has changed, the ritual too must change.
Argumentative post , with sentences like the one that I made bold above are not acceptable in this Ritual section. Here people seek expert opinions and non-experts can take their opinion and air them in the chit - chat section. The bold line is disrespectful to believers
I think Mr Goplan and others have answered the question posed in Post 1.
My Husbands Chithappa Son Passed away. Do we have 1 year Theetu? Secondly, are we allowed to do ayush homam at home during this 1 year period?
Dear Sir,
Thank you so much for your reply. I made a mistake while asking you a doubt. It is not my husband's chithappa son. It's my father in law's chithappa son. So, in this case do we still have theetu for 1 year.
Thank you! So that means I can celebrate all festivals this 1 year too? Also I didn’t understand what you meant by saying every month ayushomam from first year to second year.sir, upto seven generations ten days theetu is there. from 8th generation three days theetu. you can do Aayush homam after one year at the birth star day. we have to do every month ayush homam from first year to second year.
