Sage Parasara says that a Brahmin must wear sacred thread, keep a tuft, wear the holy mark on forehead (tirumankappau<\/em>), put on garland made out of lotus bead and silk cloth.\u00a0 If not lotus bead garland, one can add Tulasi garland and different coloured ceremonial garland made out of silk.\u00a0 It is also to be remembered that Brahma Purana says that one has to adorn the garland made out of black thulasi stump, silk pavithras, garland made out of lotus bead to the Lord and as His Prasad, <\/em>\u00a0one has to put them all.<\/p>\n Regarding mark (tirumankappu<\/em>), Sri Pancharathra Parasara Samhitha says that a Brahmin must adorn tirumankappu as follows: in the base of the nose an inch length line and in the centre of the forehead there should be one and half inch\u00a0 space between the lines\u00a0 on both sides and the\u00a0 side line should be one inch\u00a0 thick. Padma Purana states that starting from the base of the nose; the face mark should be worn upto the forehead of white clay.\u00a0 From the centre of the eye-brows there should be space between the lines and the space, about two inches and the two lines must be an inch thick each. Parasara Samhitha underlines that pure white clay must be brought from a Vishnu Kshetra, consecrated with Tirumantra and then adorn the sacred tirumankappu<\/em> with that clay on the face and other places beginning from head in twelve places. Erumbiappa by mentioning tirumankappu<\/em> implies Srichurnam<\/em> also.\u00a0 One can also notice that Parasara says that the Srichurnam <\/em>made out of turmeric, which is liked by Goddess Sridevi,\u00a0 must be applied in the space between the white clay marks.<\/p>\n Translation by Dr M Varadarajan<\/p>\n Source: https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/2015\/09\/purva-dhinacharya-tamil-7\/<\/a><\/p>\n archived in https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org<\/a><\/p>\n pramEyam (goal) \u2013 https:\/\/koyil.org<\/a> SrI:\u00a0 SrImathE SatakOpAya nama:\u00a0 SrImathE rAmAnujAya nama:\u00a0 SrImath varavaramunayE nama: Full Series << Previous SlOkam 7 Ambhoja beejamalabhihi abhijatha bhujantharam | Urdhva pundraihi upachchishtam uchisthana lakshanaihi || Word to word meaning \u00a0Ambhoja beejamalabhihi\u00a0 – by arranging the garland with the lotus bead, abhijatha bhujantharam – adorned in the beautiful arms and chest, uchisthana lakshanaihi\u00a0 – … Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[14,60],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8005","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-other","category-varavaramuni-dhinacharya"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8005","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8005"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8005\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8005"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8005"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/divyaprabandham.koyil.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8005"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
