A clarification sought

[Guest guest]

Respected Swamin,

(1)My mother, belongs to Thenkalai and she had recently passed away in

an Ekadasi thithi and the dahanam was on dwadasi. Should we do the

srartham on Ekadasi thithi of dwadasai thithi? The bruhaspathi says

that it becomes very difficult to get swamigal for an ekadasi thithi

srartham.

***

You may wrongly understood the Bruhaspathis opinion.

There is a Sampradayam in Thenkalai, that not performing the Chradham in

Ekadasi, and it should be done on the next day. It will be mostly be dwadasi,

but we should not look for dwadasi, it should be done even if it is not dwadasi

thithi for a chradham.

Because some times, the Ekadasi thithi may come on the last day of a month and

the dwadasi thithi may come on the first day of the month, in this case the

chradham should be done on the first day of next month.

(2)Further, the srardha karmas have to be done by getting the kaipul

from my younger sister. Since she may not be at our place on the day of

srardham, can she give the kaipul a few days in advance? The problem

here two bruhaspathis who are coming to our house differ - one saying

it can be done and other protesting that it is not feasible. Sorry for

troubing you. Since there are conflicting views, I am seeking these

 

clarifications.

Wtih humble respects,

GJ

Here is some confusion. I could not undersatand the questioner is male or

female?

Why the 'kaipul' to be get from the younger sister?

 

Any how the 'Kaipul' can be get earlier, through courier etc. etc.

information to the knowledge of the kartha is the main, all other things are

secondary.
