Except brahmin community, don't think any other community that keeps dead bodies in freezers for 3-4 days waiting for some1 to come from far off places to have a look at it.
Those deads have just lost this outer mortal coil kāryasarīra not the invisible kāraNa Sarīra. They've all
experiences like hunger, thirst etc to survive till it is sent to pitruloka. Until it remains as preta that neither is here nor at pitrloka. These intermediate days are very important for pretas to sustain themselves comfortably.Those kartas(Sons)need to perform last rites within
4-5hrs before the dead body sheds its warmth. Its considered to be neivedyam to agnibhagavan. We dont offer neivedyam that was prepared 4-5 days ago.
Request to all those who are destined to perform last rites, may do it as early as possible w/o undue delay.
If karta himself is
Away, then someone next in the line may perform agnisamskara. When karta arrives, he wd start with darbhasamskara to continue the rites till the end.
Our love for our parents needed to be shown the way our Sastras suggest us to do to earn their blessings. All laukika aspects can
Be forsaken as our priority shall be to help the departed soul to feel the comforts even after the death till prabhutabali followed by sapindikaranam on 12th day.

Deeply grieved to inform that Dr.R.Nagaswamy (renowned archaeologist& indic scholar&Padma Bhushan Awardee) has passed away a few minutes back at his residence in Besant Nagar; Colossal loss to Indian epigraphy&archeology in particular&great loss to the academic world in general😭
He was 92& was the 1st VC of our @SCSVMVUNIV . All his younger brothers' sons are Veda addhyayis teaching Vedas in various Vedapatasalas. My mentor he was. During his tenure, I was appointed as lecturer in Samskrtam at @sjsach . Lovely person with strong knowledge in his field🙏
On an Anusham day, Dr.R.N delivered this wonderful lecture on his experiences with Kanchi Mahaperiyava. (Headphones may be needed to hear it comfortably). Mahaperiyava played important role in shaping his career under Ramachandra Rap in archeology dept, TN

I've deliberately avoided the catchy word 'Sex' for sanskrit word maithunam here for the sake of attracting people to read my article in 4parts on the topic Garbhadhanam (impregnation) thats one of the 16samskaras that our Vaidika Maharishis have mandated for all of us.
Along with my Sishya Dr.S.Chandramouli (intern with SJSAC&H)I've deliberated here in this 2nd part about the act itself, its regulations laid down by Sastras from Dharma Sastra to Ayurveda for begetting a dharmic progeny for creating a dharmically healthy family.
Read & reflect.
2more parts are forthcoming in next weeks

Be it Adisankara or Ramanuja or any Acharya for that matter, they represent various ideas that we as society needed to cultivate in our mind to realize the parabrahman&its omni nature based on our ability to perceive it in our understanding. Such being the case, I'm amused to
See ppl hanging around nos of mathams or monastries those Acharyas had established for the sustenance&development of Sanatanadharma.They are hellbent on claiming that its only 4mathams&not more. What they are going to achieve with that? If its accepted, how SD is safeguarded?
Institutions since very long hv bn doing so many things for Sanatanadharma. Are their contributions little less than these mathams?
We as members of SD shall start behaving smarter now. I'm the original, you are duplicate etc hv no relevance to the suffering society. It needs
