Namaskaram.

adiyen would like to know about the following::

1. Can a srivaishnava visit / go with Thiruman to non-vaishnava’s house on the occasion when the inmate of that house left this world?.
2. The rituals / practices followed when a srivaishnava reaches ThiruNadu. If any reference or link can also be shared.

Namaskaram Swami,

You can find the detailed procedure of Vaidika Antheysti according to the Āpastambiya School
of the Kṛṣṇa Yajur Veda in the following link.

Namaskaram Swamy,

Thank you for the link.

adiyen’s request is to know about the procedure in simpler terms for a srivaishnavite. Probably, I have not spelt out clearly. e.g., I understand recently, when one of my relative reached ThiruNadu, SriVaishnava Bhagavatas visited his house, kept the mortal remains outside the house and took over the proceedings. Garlands were received from about 10 temples, including Sriperumbudur. His family was not allowed to carry out their traditional rituals.
