I am a newcomer to this Forum. I am deeply impressed by the depth and width of knowledge of the participants--especially HH.
May I know how I can access the bharatavarsha site? Everytime I try to log on I get a notice that the site is FORBIDDEN !
In all Tamil Brahmin weddings a charade of the Bridegroom being intercepted on his way to Benares for further studies is being enacted. I have seen similar things in Tamil speaking Iyengars of Karnataka also. Is this practice prevalent throughout this country? I will be grateful for any information about this.
To my knowledge only gotra pravaras of three generations are being called out during Tamil Brahmin marriages nowadays. Were they reciting SEVEN generations of gotra-pravaras in days of yore?
Thanks
