[Vaideekam] Last rites

[Guest guest]

SwAmin,

Pl. throw light on the rites required to be done in the case of the untimely

death of a Brahmachari youngman. He died last year in an accident when he was 37

years old. In particular after the 12th and the 13 th day rites are completed.

If the karma is done as Sapindikarnam;

Masikams, oonams everything should be done as usual.

then they can continue everything as usual,

Apthikam, prathyapthikam everything should be done at the end of the kartha's

life.

If the kainkaryam was done by the father, then the father should continue to do

as kartha.

There is no need to continue the karma after the life of one kartha.

Any karma will get end at the end of the life of a kartha, it will not be

transfered to anybody.

If the brother (younger / elder) started doing the karma, then he should

continue it.

I am giving answers in assumption because I could not understand the actual

requirement.

Some will do the karma as " Narayana bali " in that case, there will be no

masikam, apthikam, prthyabthikam etc. nothing to continue.

Thanks SwAmin. Actually, it was my son who met with death and adiyen did the

first rites upto 45th day. You have made clear that adiyEn has to continue the

rites aptikam also.

Is there any option, as adiyen has become old and physically weak? But adiyEn is

keen that there should not be any lapse in my duty as kartha. However, adiyEn

would be grateful if you can show any options to make it easier for me.

The option of doing a shradham are:

1. 'Paarvanam',

2. 'Sankalpam'

3. 'Aamam'

 

The second and third options are to be considered only in the worst case; that

also to be decided by family bruhaspathy after physically seeing the kartha's

condition.

 

If I suggest an option, all the members of this group may follow that option as

suggested for them.

Sorry,

dasan,
