    Tharpana procedure

    Tharpana should be given with water + black Sesame (Thila) seeds.


    Pithru tharpana should always be performed with the right hand.
    Take black Thila in to the palm; pour water from Kalasha with the
    help of Uddharani (spoon); drop water along with Thila into the
    tharpana plate by chanting tharpana manthra so that water should
    fall from the space in between the index finger and the thumb by
    tilting the palm to the right side.
    While performing Tharpana each Pithru has to be addressed with
    their name and Gothra. If name and Gothra of forefathers are not
    known; they should be pronounced as Yagnappa (Male); and
    Yagnamma (female); Gothra to be pronounced as Kaasyapa
    Gothra. Male Pithrus are addressed as Sarma and female Pithrus
    as Dhaam suffixing their names. The word Asmath should be
    spelled before the name and Gothra after the name.
    For example: in case of Father it should be pronounced as Asmath
    Pitharam; Yagnappa Sarmaanaam Kaasyapa Gothram and in case
    of Mother as Asmath Maatharam; Yagnamma Dhaam Kaasyapa
    Gothraam.
    In case of Dwaadasa Pithru; three generations should be addressed
    as Vasu, Rudra and Aaditya roopa and all others should be
    addressed as Vasu Roopa.
