Guest guest Posted June 22, 2008 Report Share Posted June 22, 2008 Dear Shri Vasu Vadhyar, Namaskaram Thank you very much for your candid answer. Since I did the entire kainkaryam of my elder brother on my own I am the kartha and hence have to do his shrardham. ( I presume my understanding is correct ). Your clarification has put my mind to rest on this matter. Dasan With best regards K.

He was married  but had no children and our family details are as given below :Brother elder died under natural causes ( as mentioned above )Father passed away a year after my brother's death.Mother is alive.I have one sister. I am the only son now and I continue to perform my father srardham annually.  Question : Do I perform any srardham for my elder brother ?                  If not, is there anything that needs to be performed or done on that thithi ?  DasanWith best RegardsK. Vasudevan***There is one more question to be answered.Who did the kainkaryam at the time of his death?If you did it, getting power (kaipill) from your 'manni' then your 'manni' is kartha.Otherwise if did it on your own, then you will be the kartha and you should continue to do that shradham also till the end of your life."Jyeshta bhraathaa pithru samaanaa:""Elder brothe is equal to father"So, if you did it on your own, it is the perfect dharmam and great.nvs Sent from Mail.
