Offering libations of water and til (gingely) to the pitrus (deceased parents and ancestors - manes) to satisfy and elevate them to higher spiritual planes is called “pitru tarpaNam”. This is an opportunity to honour the sages, gods, parents, ancestors and friends. This is a part of “pitruyagya”. This “pitruyagya” is one of the “ pancha mahAyagyAs – 5 yagyAs”. ( refer SamskAram no.23).
According to Manusmriti 3.68, पञ्च सूना ग्रुहस्तस्य चुल्ली पॆषण्युपस्कर: कण्डनी च उदकुम्भश् च बध्यतॆ यास् तु वाहयन्. 'There are 5 slaughter houses in the house of a householder. The hearth (stove), the grinding-stone, the broom, the pestle and mortar, the water vessel. He kills millions of small and invisible creatures daily, which bind him to inevitable sin. It is to expiate all these five sins that the “pancha mahA yagyAs” were prescribed daily for householders'.
Manusmriti further says in 3.70, पितृ यज्ञस्तु तर्पणं, pitru yagyas tu tarpaNam Out of the above 5, tarpaNam is one of the yagyAs. Pitru tarpaNam is offered to 3 generations of ancestors viz: paternal and maternal father, grandfather and great grandfather and their respective wives so that they are exalted to higher spiritual planes. We invoke the pitrUs in the form of the presiding deities of the pitru Loka and the tarpaNam, the vasu, rudra and AdityA, on the bhugnam /koorcham, in due order of the 3 generations.:Refer “vasurudrAditya swaroopAnAm” in tarpaNam mantrA. We then offer water which they love and til with mantras. We then request at the end of the tarpaNam, that this til and water be converted into suitable food for the pitrUs may it be amrutam, ghee, water, milk, grass, blood or any other food according to their present requirement. ( They may be in heaven, may be reborn as men or trees or in any other form).refer tarpaNam mantra taken from Yajur Veda Samhita “oorjam vahantee: amrutam ghrutam paya: keelAlam parishrutam svadhAstha tarpayata mE pitrUn”.
The food is called “swadhA”. Dhanyam yashasyam Ayushyam swargam shatruvinAshanam santArakam cheti shrAddhamAhoor maneekshiNa: The shrAddh/tarpaNam in honour of the pitrUs bestows wealth, fame, longevity, heaven, destruction of enemies and progeny. Vishnu purANA, chapter 3, adhyAy 14, verses 12 to 14 say: एता युगाद्या: कथिता: पुराणॆष्वनन्तपुण्यास्तिथश्चस्त्र:। उपप्लवे चन्द्रमसो रवॆश्च त्रिष्वष्टकास्वप्ययनद्वयॆ च ॥ पानीयमप्यत्र तिलैर्विमिश्रं दद्यात्पितृभ्य प्रयतॊ मनुष्य:। श्राद्धं क्रुतम् तॆन समासहस्रं रहस्यमॆतत्पितरॊ वदन्ति ॥ EtA yugAdyA: kathitA: purANE ShvanantapuNyAstithashchastra:. # The days when pitru tarpaNam should be performed are: 1. On 96 days (refer shaNNavati below) in the morning after snAnam, sandhyAvandanam, brahma yagyam, mAdhyAnnikam and bhagavat ArAdhanA.
On solar and lunar eclipses: At the onset of the solar eclipse, one must take bath and do the tarpaNam immediately. But at the onset of the lunar eclipse, one must take bath immediately but start the tarpaNam in the last part of the eclipse and finish it with the eclipse. On parEhani tarpaNam day, the day following the annual shrAddh of the parents, one must do tarpaNam in the morning after sandhyAvandanam. # The time of the day when shrAddh or tarpaNam should be done is: It is important to understand the following divisions of a day to decide the exact time of performance of a tarpaNam or shrAddham.
Many Rushis have contributed to the determination of kAlA. There seem to be more than 3 ways of dividing the day into kAlAs. One such way is explained below: A day of 24 hours consists of 60 nAzhikAs (30 nAzhikAs of day and 30 nAZhikAs of night) 1 day (12 hours) = 30 nAzhikAs which is divided into 5 kAlAs Each kAlA = 6 nAzhikAs = around 2.24 hours One nAzhikA = approx. 0.37 hours (22.4 minutes) Assuming that the sunrise is at 6: a.m., then prAta: kAlam = 6:a.m. To 8:24 a.m., 1 st nAzhikA to 6 th nAzhikA sangava kAlam = 8:24 a.m. To 10:48 a.m., 7 th nAzhikA to 12 th nAzhikA madhyAhnam = 10:48 a.m. To 1:12 p.m., 13 th nAzhikA to 18 th nAzhikA aparAhNam = 1:12 p.m.
To 3:36 p.m., 19 th nAzhikA to 24 th nAzhikA sAyAhnam = 3:36 p.m. 25 th nAzhikA to 30 th nAzhikA kutapa kAlam: The 15 th and 16 th nAzhikAs are called kutapa kAlam. This corresponds to approx.
Time 11:36 a.m. To 12:24 p.m. ShrAddhAs and tarpaNas should be started during this period. ShrAddha kAlam. ShrAddhams and tarpaNams should be started in the 'kutapa kAlam' and finished before the end of the 'aparAhNa kAlam'.
Amavasya Tharpanam In Telugu
So they shoud be performed approx. Between 11:36 p.m. And 3:36 p.m. EXCEPTION OF SANKRAMANA TARPANAM. The SankramaNa is the time when the Sun enters a new RAshi.
So that determines the beginning of 12 months. So there are 12 SankramaNas in a year. TarpaNam has to be performed on these 12 days at the time when the new month starts. If the sankramaNa time is during the day after sunrise, then TarpaNam is performed at the time of SankramaNa. (If not feasible, then in the morning after nitya karmA). If sankramaNa time is after sunset, then tarpaNa is done on the next day after sunrise, because tarpaNas should not be done in the night. Always snAnam and sandhyAvandanam precede any karmA.
So they have to be done first and then tarpaNas should be performed. # How to select the day of the shrAddh/tarpaNam (shrAddha tithi)? One may always get in touch with your family priest or your AchAryA for any doubts. The nirNaya depends also upon one's specific 'sampradAyam or caste'.
What is given below is for a basic understanding of the calculations. The day when the concerned tithi prevails in the “aparAhNa kAlam” i.e. Between the 19 th nAzhikA and 24 th nAzhikA (approx. Between 1:12 p.m.
Amavasya Tharpanam In Telugu Pdf Free
And 3:36 p.m.) that day is to be selected for the performance of the shrAddha/tarpaNam. This day is called the “shrAddha tithi”. It is necessary that atleast little of the tithi should be present in the “aparAhNa kAlam”. (The time of sunrise on that particular day should be taken for calculation of “aparAhNa kAlam”) 2.
If the concerned tithi prevails in the “aparAhNa kAlam” of two consecutive days, then that day in which the tithi’s duration in the “aparAhNa kAlam” is more, that day is selected for performance of shrAddham. If the concerned tithi does not prevail in the “aparAhNa kAlam” at all on both the days, then that day in which the tithi prevails in the “sAhyAna kAlam” approx. Between 3:36 p.m. And 6:00 p.m. (assumed sunrise at 6:00a.m.), is to be taken as the shrAddha tithi. Then the day which is rejected is called “atithi”.
If 2 different tithis prevail on the same day during the “aparAhNa kAlam” and if both the tithis happen to be a day for shrAddham, then both the shrAddhams have to be performed on the same day. The such a day which has 2 shrAddha tithis is called “tithi dvayam” # ShaNNavati tarpaNam Dharma Sindhu, Page 36, of Shri kAsinAtha upAdhyAya: षण्णवति श्राद्धान्यपिनित्यानि तानिच. ASHTakA anvaSHTakA poorvEdyu: shrAddhairnavatishchaShaT' The above slokA lists “shaNNavati” - a total of 96 tarpaNAs to be performed by a person in a year.

The same is applied for the night of the previous day. # One must wear a dhoti made wet and dried in the morning of the tarpaNam day. ( if not possible it can be done on the previous night and hung in a place where no one touches it) # NO.OF TIL (SESAME) SEEDS FOR THE OFFERING. “Vishnu PurANam 3.14.27” तिलैस्सप्ता अष्टभिर्वापि समवॆतम् जलाञ्जलिम् । भक्तिनम्र:स्समुद्दिष्य भुव्यस्माकम् प्रदास्यति ॥. EXCEPTIONS 1.The time to perform tarpaNam is generally the end of the forenoon, around 11:30 a.m.
But if not possible, our seers have allowed to do it after 8:45 a.m. But it should never be done in the early morning time. 2.If you miss a tarpaNam, there is no “prAyaschitta tarpaNam” for it. You can do it late but should not miss it. A fasting is prescribed for some solace. If tarpaNam falls on bhruguvAr (Fridays), AdityavAr (Sundays) and AravAr (Tuesdays) or one’s own janma nakshatra, you can add holy rice (akshata) to the black sesame and water and perform the tarpaNam. भृगुवादित्यार वारॆषु पित्रु तृप्त्यै जलान्जलीन् । स अक्षतान् सन्दिशॆत् धीमान् तत्तत् दर्शादिकॆ दिनॆ ॥ bhrugvAdityAra vArESHu pitru truptyai jalAnjaleen sAkshatAn sandishEt dheemAn tattat darshAdikE dinE 4 If tarpaNam falls immediately after an auspicious function like marriage, seemantam, etc., holy rice (akshata) should be used instead of til/sesame and arugam grass is to be used instead of darbha grass.

VivAhE chOpanayanE chouLE sati yathAkramam varSHamardham tadardham cha naityakE tila tarpaNam # What if there is grahanam, sankramanam or amAvAsya on the pratyAbdika shrAddha tithi (annual shrAddham of parents)? If “sankaramaNam (beginning of the month)” and “pratyAbdika shrAddham “(annual shrAddham) coincide on the same day, then the sankramaNa tarpaNam must be performed 1 st and after that the pratyAbdika shrAddham should be performed. If “grahaNam” and “pratyAbdika shrAddha” tithis coincide on the same day, and grahaNam prevails in the “kutapa kAlam, aparAhNa kAlam, sangava kAlam or early night, then only grahaNa tarpaNam should be performed on that day during its occurrence.
The shrAddham must be performed on the following day even if the shrAddha tithi has expired. If “grahaNam” and “pratyAbdika shrAddha” tithis coincide on the same day, but the grahaNam period is over comfortably before the kutapa kAlam, then the grahaNa tarpaNam must be performed during its occurrence and the shrAddham should also be performed after that. If the shrAddha thithi occurs twice in a month, once in the beginning of the month and again at the end of the month, then shrAddham should be peformed on the day of the second occurrence. Then the 1 st tithi which is rejected is called “shooNya tithi”. But if on the day of the second occurrence of the shrAddha tithi, the “sankramaNa tarpaNam (beginning of the month)” also occurs, then the shrAddha must be performed in the 1 st occurrence itself. And if both the occurrences of the shrAddha tithi has sankramaNa dOshA, then the day of the second occurrence is to be taken as the shrAddha tithi for performance of the shrAddham in which case the sankraman tarpaNam must be done first and then the shrAddham. If there is shrAddha tithi on 2 consecutive days and if there is grahaNa dOsha on one of the days, then shrAddham should be performed on that day which does not have grahaNa dOshA.
Then the day chosen for the performance of the shrAddham is called “swatithi”. If “amAvAsya” falls on the day of the “pratyAbdika shrAddham’, then the “pratyAbdika shrAddham should be performed first and then the amAvAsya tarpaNam should be performed. DHARMA SPEAKS “taittriyOpanishad” seekshAvalli 22 says: दॆवपितृकार्याभ्यां न प्रमदितव्यं मातृ दॆवॊ भव, पितृ दॆवॊ भव dEvapitrukAryAbhyAm na pramaditavyam, mAtru dEvO bhava, pitru dEvO bhava One should not neglect worship of the Gods and the manes. Mother is the form of God and father is also the form of Go d. (note the significance of putting both these worships together).
