> 16.07.2020 > Karkataka Sankramana
> Dakshinayana Parvakaala (10.33 hrs to Sunset)
> No Pithru Tharpana - (Ekaadasi Aacharana)
As per Surya Siddhantha, astrologically transit of Sun into Karkataka Raasi is taking place on 16.07.2020 @ 10.33 PM. As per Dharma Shastra, Parvakaaala for Karkataka Sankramana is fixed as 30 Ghatis prior to transit time.
That means Parva/Punyakaala starts from 10.33 AM onwards till Sunset. Since that time it is Ekaadasi aacharana tharpana should not be given. Instead, Pavamana Sookta/Pithru sookta paarayana is prescribed.

Adjacent and to the left of Moola Brindavana of Sri Raghavendra Swamy at Mantralayam, we find another Brindavana built in the name of Sri VaAdeEndra Theertharu the fifth descendant in the lineage of Guru Sarvabhouma Sri Raghavendra Swamy. He belongs to the 18th century.
In fact Sri Vadeendra Theertharu was the great grandson of Sri Guru Raayaru (in his poorvasrama) who was just two years old when Sri Raayaru entered into Brindavana.
