Respected Sir:

Although this need not necessarily apply in your case, one is merely
voicing one's concern. The most crucial pre-requisite is the Sandhya
without which nothing moves literally.  This writer has come across many
instances when people comply meticulously to all the requirements as per
Sastras, Sampradaya and the instructions of their Acharyas, but tend to
either ignore or dilute the Sandhya requirement.  Again, hope you do not
take this amiss as being applicable to your case.  The Sandhya is the sole
'enabling' factor which confers on the person the eligibility to do the
tarpanam.  Sandhya followed    by Tarpanam in that order must be strictly
adhered.

Dear Sampath Kumaran:
I have been faced with this situation quite a few times. My mother has told
me that it is customary to use "korai pul,"
i.e. hard and long grass in place of dharba grass if the latter is not
available. The dharba grass takes the form of seat and so long as the other
grass is not really coarse, it should be alright. We find it in our
backyard and it fits the bill. I have made five to six inch long pieces out
of these and tied them up with the grass itself and used them in place of
bugnams. A special gold ring made of gold wires woven together, given to me
by my brother-in-law, is sufficient to substitute for the grass to be taken
in the finger. I believe that the tharpanam done with earnest spirit with
proper substitution will be accepted by our forefathers.

While visiting US from India, many of us come well
equipped with Dharbai - bugnam. But at times we find
short of the same and are not able to get it from know
circles or temples.
Can any of the learned scholars enlighten whether
tarpanam can be done with "Ellu" without Dharbai.
