Sri MGV has written
"MGV's comments: It is sroutha – means a vedic rites or rituals - as per vedhaas – can take it as 'yagnaas'. Other is 'smaartha karmaa' – which is a 'memorial service' – 'remembering and doing certain rites – can take it as sraardham – which is in memory of those who passed away. Smaranam – means remembering –leading to smaartha"
Anbil's comments:
"Sruti" means Veda (That which was heard).
"Smriti" means (that which is remembered) It includes all other scriptures like Itihasa, Purana etc which help us in remembering what is contained in the Vedas. This does not primarily relate to "Sraddha" karmas that are "memorial service" to Pitrus. The elaboration on offering meat during Sraddhas may not be necessary  while dealing with "Rams's food habits" which is the sujubject matter of this series.
Anyway, we welcomed Sri MGV's postings because they provide lots of "food for thought"!
 
But, sorry.
NO further mails in this series will be approved, if they have no direct bearing on
"rama's food habits"

 And, let me add:
 
These postings may not be taken as springboard for discussions in "Sri Ranga Sri" which is NOT the forum for debates and discussions. If need be, further clarifications may be sought from Sri MGV himself by personal and private mails.
 
Thank you for your understanding and co-operation.
Dasoham
Anbil Ramaswamy
