At chennai solar eclipse starts at 17:14 and ends at 1820 or so.
Saayam sandhya kalam is few minutes before sunset. Generel rule is to give arghyam before sunsets, do gayaptri japa till sun sets & do upasthAna after sunset.
The present eclipse is a grastAstamanam.
Should we give arghyam before eclipse or during eclipse or after the eclipse?
During eclipse full sun is not there, can we give arghyam..
After eclipse sunset has already happened...
What is the sequence of duties to do in eclipse time?
Sparsha snAnam
Tarpanam
Sandhyaa....????

Daanam
Moksha snaanam
Is this right?
2. Should we do one tarpanam or 2 tarpanams....?
