Bodhayana Darsa Tharpana mantras

Bodhayana Darsa Tharpanam

Compiled by
P.R.Ramachander

( Bodhayana was a great saint who was the son of Sage Kanva. He has written Grihya Suthras which are followed by many Iyer Brahmins. He belonged to the Krishna Yajur Veda. The Amavasya Tharpanam for those who follow Bodhayana Sutra has to be done on Bodhayana Amavasya days
These can be found as per the rule given below:-
If on Chathurdasi day , Amavasya Thithi starts before 12 hours(30 Nazhigai) from Sun rise, then those who follow Bodhayana Sutra do Tharpana on that day. They also perform Tharpana on Chathurdasi day when , the Prathama Thithi next to Amavasya day ends within 12 hours after sun rise. These are normally listed in the Pangams.
This is connected to the story of the artificial Amavasya created by the coming near of the Sun and the moon when the Sun and Moon saw Lord Krishna and Pandavas doing Tharpana before the starting of the Bharatha war , so that the Kauravas would start the war in an inauspicious time.
The Tharpana manthras as per Bodhayana Suthra differ from the manthras used by those who follow Apasthamba Sutra. Apart from Pithrus , thaprpana is also done to acharyas(mentor) , Gurus(Teacher) and Sakhees (friends) and their families. I am giving them in English so that it would be useful to people who live away from their native place and are not able to read manthras in Sanskrit or in their mother toungue or unable to locate a Purohith. I have followed the compilation by Sri Painga Nadu Venkatrama Sastri In tamil by Surabhi publications Madras . My grateful acknowledgements to the learned compiler and the publisher.

  2. Do the Sri Vaishnavites following Bhodhayana sutra follow the above with replacing Parameswara Preethyartham as Narayana Preethyartham or are there further changes? Can you kindly clarify?

    ReplyDelete
  3. I think that replacing the Parameshwara preethyartham , you can proceed. Even there I see that then kalai and vada Kalai follow slightly different sankalpams.PLease read my compilation of Amavasya tharpana manthras for iyengars for information about this, Ramachander

  5. Sir, Please let me know whether we can give tarpanam to a friend who has passed away in the wrong way that is suicide. By this Mahalaya paksham it would be completing 4 months. Awaiting your reply.

  6. Sir, I would like to ask you one more question about the span of life and death.

    If a person committs a sucide which is a very drastic act, is it punishable in the higher levels. Further how much time a soul takes once again to incarnate as a human being. In this case there is a balance of life which has to be cleared. Before completing once term, he/she has come out of the body.

  7. Dear Prabhakar ,

  19. Namaste....one question . When should mukhya karta start first amavasa tarpanam after father's demise. We are bodhayana and mother expired 20 yrs back while father expired july 2020 this year. Many priests say after abdigam but a few say as per scriptures immediate amavasya following 12th day once fathe's sappandikarnam is over. OM.
