Adiyen is not a Brahmin. Am a disciple of the present Srimad Azhagiya Shingar. Have undergone both samashrayanam and bharanyasam. I live alone. To the best of my abilities, have been observing AchAram and following anusthAnam, perform japam, Perumal aradhanam, etc. for the pleasure of the divine heart of Acharyan and Perumal. While undergoing bharanyasam, Acharyan has assured that at the end of this life that adiyen will attain moksha. I have absolute faith in that. Have a deeper understanding of the importance of the last rites (Charam kainkaryam) from the lives of Maraneri Nambi and Periya Nambi and as a result continue to perform tharpanam, etc. I don’t have children, and my family does not have faith in the shastras. This means that there is no possibility of charama kainkaryam for me. Though I have absolute faith that attainment of Vaikuntham and Divine Feet of Emperuman is assured due to the munificence of Acharya, are there any atonements or AchAra/anusthAnam that need to be performed as an alternative to the charama kainkaryam? Adiyen asks this not to fulfill a shortcoming, asking instead solely to please Perumal and Acharya.

Shastras themselves have mentioned that there is no need to worry about charama kainkaryam to a great extent; there is also no need to perform atonements or anusthAnam as alternatives. Moreover, those who have undergone bharanyasam need not worry, so says the Vedas. Let us pray individually to Perumal that it must go through smoothly due to HIS grace. Perumal will conduct that effectively. We have witnessed many such instances.
