Through the previous issue of Sudarshanam, adiyen got clarification for one of my question on whether one should adhere to the requirements of madi while performing prapatti. Swami has also said that we should try to maintain the madi to the extent possible and try to avoid being impure if it can be avoided. Adiyen’s bharanyasam was performed by prakrutam Azhagiyashingar. Based on the clarification provided by the Vidwan, I understood that the vastram that adiyen wore on that day was tainted. This has caused mental anxiety; will this accrue any sin?

On the day when you performed bharanyasam, if you had intentionally worn tainted clothes, it is a sin. If done unintentionally, there is no harm. There is no relationship between this and bharanyasam.

In general, while prostrating elders, in particular Acaryas, one must maintain purity.

If the deed was done intentionally, it is sinful; the only atonement is to seek forgiveness from Perumal
