Vaishyas Sodasha Vithaanam Topics

People are called human beings while they are living; once they die, they are called souls. After death, the present day is referred to as day-1, and the next day is referred to as day-2. They will burn the dead body on the same day or the next day, depending on the circumstances and people religious practices.  Theory says - Even after he has died, this man still feels anguish as he burns.

That is the reason theory says -  Do the NITHYA VITHI,  The narrative assumes that when the human body burns, the soul requires some water.  that is the reason we have to perform nithyavithi.

This days (10, 13, 16 )will vary depending on where you live and what region you follow, but the story remains same.

" In brief, it states that the soul does not have a body in the other realm after death. So, for ten days, we must provide food and drink to the soul, also known as - pind daan. These offerings aid in the formation of the body for the soul, allowing it to journey to Yamalok from the 11th day forward for the next year. According to the Garud Puran, it takes one year to reach Yamalok. For the next year, we must continue to perform pind daans at 15-day intervals, as used by the departed spirit to sustain energy levels for the journey's completion. "

1. Nithya Vithi - Stone as considered as pretham [ soul ], day 1 to till current day, abhishegam will happen for the stone. this is called nithya vithi, For detail information, please call me.

   2. Process will start with single stone for 16 days, once 16 days abhishegam completed, then we troduce two more stone, those are shivan and yaman, Yaman is the chief incharger of all souls, and Shivan is his head.  Soul  final destination is the yamapuri (Yamalogam), Hence we are instroudcing these two characters, In simple and short - Hey Yama - This is my father's soul, which we are sending to your location; please accept this soul; he has completed his mission on Earth.
