AM PITHRU KARMA IN ENGLISH WITH MANTHRAS GIVEN AS TRANSLITERATED VERSION. DO THE KARMA BEFORE EATING BREAKFAST If possible previous day (Jul 20th) eat only little food / wheat based food as vratham for doing pithrukarma on 21st July Where ever deergham is to be used in pronunciation, the vowels are used twice here. Read the Sanskrit line few times so that correct pronunciation will automatically come. Any mistake occurred while doing do not worry, be sincere and do with all concentration. Let someone read it for you when you perform the karma, which will be better Purpose of doing pithrukarmaIndian culture and civilization is the only one, which survived for the last not less than 10,000 years and it is due exclusively to the family relation, and social bondage we maintained during this period. Pithru karma is not merely for the parents it is for one and alls who has

associated with us in this janma and past many janmas and also those who are connected with us directly indirectly. What we offer to our forefathers and all those who were responsible for our existence to on this earth cannot be explained but merely physical words. ( as you know we remember many heroes, including Krishna, Jesus, Prophet , and conduct many ritual on their birth day and anniversary, not thinking that they are seeing all these and taking our offerings, but it is our homage to them as they are responsible in many ways for us in getting a useful experience in our life.The abstract of the rituals is enclosed as requested many people perform the way possible without violating the rules of the country where you are working. All that is needed a little thulasi, karuka (durva) , darbha/ kusa (mermooda grass) , a glass water with spoon, chandan/ sandal wood

paste, gingely /sesame / ellu, little cooked rice and non cooked rice..Procedure: Put a little raw rice in the glass of water and pray â€" gange cha yamune chaiva godaavari saraswati narmade sindhu kaaveri jalesmin sannidhim kuru (I perform the pinda karma using the wter ofseven holy river of bhaarath)Take little water in your right hand and spray on the ground where you are sitting and make a circular mandala and put the darbha keeping the pointed ends towards south and north chanting this mantra, spared about ten pieces of 10 cms long darbha on the mandala Ayodhya madhura maaya kaasi kaaanchi avanthika puri dwaaraavati chaiva saptha ethey moksha daayaka I I perform this pithru tharpanam remembering seven holy cities of Bhaarath) Take a small quantity of gingely, tulasi, durva grass , hold in both hands, lift the hands a little high as though you are doing

aavaahanam and pray as follows after the mantra put the materials in the bottom corner of the dharbha put in the mandalaVasu rudra aaditya swaroopaan, mama vams’a thraya ubhaya kula pitroon, dhyaayaami , aavaahayaami, asmin koorcha mole sthaapayaami, poojayaami (where ever deergham is to be pronounced, in the mantra there double vowels are given).Now you have invited (aavaahanam done) your three generations of forefathers with gingely and tulasi and have told them to be on the darbha and you have to do the pooja as followsChant repeatedly Om Namo Naaraayanaaya ( If you are a Christian or Muslim chant which ever you feel god) and offer three times, first water, then tulasi, then chandan /sandal wood paste, then water and silently pray for five second .Now we have to invite our great grand forefathers known as aadi puthrus who were there

beyond the three generations back. Chant the following mantra and hold tulasi, gingely, durva/karuka with chandan and water a few drops in your hand, split the materials into two and hold in two hand and raise your hands above the shoulder level as you are inviting the great rant forefathers from the sky.Aadiputhrubhyo nama aadi pithroon, dhyaayaaami avaahayami asmin koorcha madhye sthaapayaami poojayaami â€" place the material together in the middle of the dharba , kept on the mandala. Repeat the pooja as mentioned above chanting Om Namo Narayanaaya repeatedly and offer three times each water, chandan, tulasi, rice and again thrice water.(Now two levels of forefathers and ancestors and invited for receiving our offering on the dharbha / kusa grass.Take two thirds of the cooked rice in your hand and make it a ppinda in spherical shape chanting

this mantraDevathaabhya pithrubhyascha mahaa yogeebhya eva chaNama swadhaayai swaahaayay Nithyameva namo nama:Tilodakam cha pindam cha pithroonaam parithushtayeSamarpayaami bhakthya praarthayaami praseeda mayPut the pinda with reverence on the center of the darbha .Now the pooja for the pinda (pinda pooja is performed) Chant as mentioned above Om Namo Naaraayanaaya repeatedly and slowly offer three times bit water in drops, flowers, gingly, chandan, as many white flowers as possible if available and then again thrice water drops.The prayer is given earlier through pdf format in Malayalam and Sanskrit script /devanagari script Aabrahmano ye pithru vamsa jaathaa maathu thathaa vamsa bhava madheeya till the end………….continue the mantraAt the end of the mantra take the remaining part of the cooked rice mix with few drops of water and

put around the pinda and pray for a minute or so remembering the face of your mother/father /forefathers whomsoever you can remember.After the prayer once more give a little water chanting the mantraavasaaneeya arghyamidam Now pithru tharpanam.

I have a doubt, like me there are thousands of us are in outside India , as you explain , we need a little thulasi, karuka (durva) , darbha/ kusa (mermooda grass) , a glass water with spoon, chandan/ sandal wood paste, gingely /sesame / ellu, little cooked rice and non cooked rice.., But like me in gulf countries and our brothers and sisters in other countries they also need to perform pithru karma, but it is not possible to get THULASI, KARUKA, DARBHA... Instead of this items what can we use to perform. Can I tell to people to use same like Bhishma Pithamaha done for pooja when he is in arrow bed as mano pushpa.. like that only imagine . One thing more one who is stay in flats which is not easy to go to at least to pond , sea, or river , as
