Sir,
My father and mother is no more. We are 3 brothers (Tamil Brahmins), all are married and having childrens. My father passed away in 1984. Till today every year we are performing varsha shraddam without fail with all the family members. Since I am 2nd son, my elder brother is doing.We stand by side of him while doing rituals. Last year my mother passed away.
Her varsha shraddam is nearing, now my elder brother is planning to do in kasi, children and famliy members(ladies) cannot participate, if we do varsha shraddam in kasi.
what is palan (advantage). I am telling my elder brother, if we perform varsha shraddam in home itself every one including grand childrens can participate, but he is ignoring me.
Is it true that if we perform varsha shraddam in kasi, we need not do varsha shraddam every years (i.e forth coming years)
Please let me know in detail.
