Dear Sir, I am a Thenkalai Iyengar and performing Thiruvaradanam. I have a personal opinion that on Amavasya day Thiruvaradanam has to be done BEFORE doing Amavasya tharpanam and it is not correct to do Thiruvaradanam after doing Amavasya tharpanam. Same opinion about it on Avani Avittam day, first is Thiruvaradanam and then only Kamokaarshit japam and Khandarshi tharpanam is to be performed. Secondly, for Avani Avittam , some people say Kamokaarshit japam should be done only after Yajnopaveetha Dhaaranam. But in Srivaishnavam website Yajnopaveetha Dhaaranam manthram is mentioned after Kamokaarshit japam. Kindly advise me on the above queries. Thanking you, Adiyen…

Answer: Amavasya tharpan is for your ancesters, wherein the navakandarishi tharpan is not only for the Rishis and Devas, but also for the entire universal beings! (Vedam, Puranam, Ithihasam, Kalpam, Vruksham and so on). There is nothing wrong in performing the Aradhanam after the TharpaNam.
Normally, before starting any auspicious function, one has to purify himself to get qualified to perform it. In this context, taking of panchacavyam and changing of the holy thread comes first! Only after changing the thread one should follow other steps. So kamokarsheet japam or Kandarishi tharpan are not an exception.
