Toronto Panchangam

Shraddha & Tarpan

Tithi Shraddha

तिथि श्राद्ध

Monthly and masika observances on the tithi of the departed, kept simple and correct for families abroad.

Significance of this ritual

The masika and tithi observances keep the memory of the departed present through the year rather than on a single day alone.

How the ritual is performed

A shorter sankalpa and tarpan with darbha, sesame and water, pinda where the family observes it, and a simple naivedya of the food the departed liked, offered with the appropriate mantras.

When it is observed

Monthly on the tithi of passing during the first year, and thereafter on the tithis your family keeps, including Amavasya.

What families can expect

  • A short observance suited to a working week
  • Correct procedure without unnecessary elaboration
  • Can be performed at home or online
  • Guidance on the right muhurta using the Toronto panchangam.
  • Clear preparation notes for your home or hall before the ritual.
  • Mantras chanted with correct pronunciation and meaning explained.
  • Rituals conducted for families across Canada and USA, in person or online.
