SrI:
 
Dear Devotees :
 
A question was asked by a devotee about the procedures
to be followed during the GrahaNams . Let me summarize them
for the groups as known to me . Please add anything that needs
to be added .In all final observances , the sishtAchAram of Your
family as instructed by oyur AchAryAs take precedence .
 
There are two categories of anushtAthAs ( observers) :
 
1.Those who do not need to perform TarpaNam .
2.Those who have to perform TarpaNam .
 
There are also slightly  different procedures for
Chandra and Soorya GrahaNams .
 
Chandra GrahaNam
*************************
An hour before the onset of GrahaNam , please recite
the Veda Manthram (2 Rks) from Navagraha Manthrams
10 or 28 or 108 times. When the GrahaNam starts , the Gaayathri
and/or ashtAkshara Japam should be performed . TarpaNam is
done after GrahaNam . Those who TarpaNam bathe before TarpaNam .
 
Soorya GrahaNam
**********************
Prior to GrahaNam , the Aadhithya Manthram from the Navagraha
Rk is to be recited for 10 or 28 or 108 Times.  At the start of
the GrahaNam , bath has to be taken .TarpaNam commences thereafter.
Manthra Japam of choice follows for both kinds of anushtAthAs.
At the end of the GrahaNam , once again SnAnam has to be performed .
There are thus 2 snAnams for Soorya GrahaNam .
 
The Sankalpam for the Chandra GrahaNa Kaala TarpaNam
*************************************************
SrI BhagavadhAj~nyayA SrIman NaarAyaNa PreethyarTam
-----SOmOparAga PuNya kaalE  SOmOparAga SrArddham tila
tarpaNa roopENa adhya karishyE .
 
Rest of the TarpaNam is standard.
 
The Sanklapam for the Soorya GrahaNa Kaala TarpaNam
******************************************************************
SooryOparAga puNya kAlE SooryOparAga SrArddham tila
tarpaNa roopENa ahya karishyE
 
With Standeard UpasTAnam and YathAsTAnam ,
the TarpaNam concludes.
 
For detailed meanings on TarpaNa manthrams  , the vastram to be worn,
the procedures to be followed are in the Zipped Filr (126 KB)
archived in Oppiliappan ( Feb4 , 2004 ) archives .please refer to
this excellent wrtie up by SrI Ramachandran .
