Dear Friends,
As has been my practice I have put the Tharpana Sankalams for the Kara Varsha(2011-12) as given in the Acharyal Madathu Panchangam. In my web site
Rules and Rituals of Brahmins
I have also included this time the time when Thidhi and Nakshatra changes so that people who are abroad can make modifications in the sankalpams as per their time. With best wishes, Ramachander

I am surprised that I do not know from when, in Sankalpam, we continue to say "subha yoge, subha karane instead of spelling the name of the 'yoga' and 'karana'. With modern gadgets working wonders, it will be easy to obtain the names and spell them also. Already people are giving up mathamaha varga names. My idea is for those who do it.

yoga is to be determined from the longitude of moon +longitude of sun. When this sum total crosses each 13 Deg, 20 minutes of arc, the yoga changes. As of now 22-24 hrs IST on 06-04-2011, the yoga is Priti; tomorrow at about 12-10 noon, it will change to Ayushmaan.

Karana is a lunar half day (half of a Tithi that is). The naming of Karana is a bit complicated.

Not all the togas and all the Karanas are "Subha" or auspicious. Hence the omnibus "Subhayoga Subhakarana" in the Tarpana Samkalpam. For the daily "snaana Samkalpa" also the same "Subhayoga Subhakarana" is to be recited by those who take bath after samkalpam. Otherwise there will be a patent untruth, is it not? Anyway, before this Samkalpa, one recites "yogaSca karanam caiva sarvam vishnumayam jagat".

For Amavasya and madha pirapu tharpanam you must say only vishnu yogam and vishnu karanam and not subha yoga and subhs karanam.

Dear Shri Ramachander,
Good. Thanks for the information. Regards, Nathan.

Practice varies, I feel. Here people recite SubhayOga, SubhakaraNa for pitru kaaryams also. Anyway, there is no harm in doing pitru karyams also in auspicious times; should they be performed during inauspicious times?

 

[Iyyarooraan]

I agree. But the same can be the case with other angaas of panchang. Anyway I got your point.

I feel ravi, sun,suryan, mithran etc; are the same name for bhanu. whether you say vishnu or subhan both are same . For apara karmas we start with apa vithra pavithrova and says vishnu yoga and vishnu karana. For poorva prayoga the same sastrigal is coming and starts with subae shobhanae muhurthe he says suba yogam and subha karanam . people are there with karpoora budhi; charcoal budhi and vaalai thandu budhi. therefore practices is varying.
