Kindly do not mistake me sir. We have no idea who is actually making these items and supplying to the store. So how does it matter if he touches the same. Anyway each person is free to have his own opinion. Kindly request you to read bhajagovindham written by Adhi Sankaracharya. After our death, people who loved us hesitate to come near our body. Some of them silently walk out. This is the harsh reality of life. Money is everything in life. Without money our own friends think twice before entertaining us. Even so called priest cannot be satisfied fully. They will still want more. If you find such a priest, you are a very fortunate person. I am a brahmin and I perform sandhyavandanam twice everyday twice and 1008 japam once a week. I have also come across people who have asked me why should it at all be performed, who performs these old things etc. But this has never detered me and has made me even more determined to perform these nitya karmas & anusthanams. Self help is the best help for certain rituals like tharpans, Of course a priest is mandatory for shraddam and performance is mandatory.Dont worry sir. God is with you always. With best wishesI required koorcham, pavithram for tharpanas. and some times Poonal,. When I requested my aged vadhyar. he suggested me to get from .........Stores When I went there, the koorcham etc were touched and given by இதராள். Though I have no animosity towards them, when it comes to Pitru karyam, my mind hesitates. What can I do? Can I clean it in water and use for tharpanam. Kindly enlighten me, Thanks and regard
