[SJC: Achyuta Gurukul] Achyuta Gurukul] Achyuta Gurukul] Last ritual/rites of Parents ?

[Guest guest]

Respected Triptika,

 

In general,I think that,logically, if the soul

some how gets liberated ,last rites need not

be performed to that soul.Absolute dependence on

god /Guru will grant liberation in this very

life and I think that that is the belief of

Hindus.

 

The best way is to pray to god sincerely to

answer ones querry/querries, and show the right

path.

 

Only competent Gurus can give any real answer

to your questions.

 

Offering my pranams to the gurus of our

samstha,

 

With regards,

 

Jagannathan.
