Swamin,

 

Kindly enlighten the importance of Tharppanam at Sethu and Shrardham at Gaya and

Badrinath. Is it alright to perform Mahalaya Tharppanam at Sehu?

 

 

With regards,

S Rajagopalan

suitably.

Swamin,

 

I am yet to get an answer for my question about the significance on Sethu tharppanam, shrardham at Gaya and Badrinath. Some body says that shrardham at Badrinath should not be undertaken before doing so at Gaya. Somebody says that Gaya Tharppanam is ultimate. Which is correct.

 

Kindly enlighten on the above.

 

Regards,

 

Adiyen
