What is Perumal tirtham that is offered after performing Tiruvaradhanam? Is it the prayigraha patram that is offered for the respective asanam (That is, arghyam, paadyam, etc.), the snanaasana tirtham offered to Perumal? Or is it the snanaasana which is not the thirumanjanam tirtham? What should we do with this tirtham? If we perform thirumanjanam with milk for Perumal, what should we do with the milk? In our house as the children have to leave for school and college, the thaligai is prepared quite early. As a result, we prepare separate food for offering during Tiruvaradhanam. Kindly advise how to offer the thaligai during bhojyaasanam.

A. The tirtham offered after Tiruvaradhanam is the snanaasana tirtham. That is, the tirtham with which thirumanjanam was performed for Perumal. Even if it is mixed with arghya, paadaya tritham, no harm in this. All the tirtham are to be partaken.
B. If Perumal thirumanjanam is done with milk, it can be partaken by us and can be distributed to children, as it is auspicious.
It is not a mistake to prepare a second thaligai specifically for offering to Perumal when the first thaligai was prepared for the children. It is the practice of the elders to include curd along with the second offering (Steamed rice).
