Girija passed away on 25 November 2007 at 5-15PM. Her varusha Aaptikam was on 10th, 12th, 13th, and 14th Dec 2008 at Chennai.
10 Dec 2008, Wednesday was the ஊன மாஸிகம். We didn't attend it.
12 Dec 2008, Friday was the Aaptika ஸோதகும்பம். We two reached Sugavanam's house by 8-45 AM. Savithri had come to Chennai on 6th Dec for these Kariyams. She, Saroja, Sudha had started preparations for cooking. One Sastrigal came by 10 AM and Sothakumbham was completed by 1040. After this Brahmin finished meals, we all ate. Then we left by 1-30 PM.
13 Dec 2008, Saturday was the Aaptika Sraththam. We reached Sugavanam's place by 9-15. Vijaya took bath there, wore the 9-yd sari and participated in the kariyams. Sraththam started by 10-40. Over by 11-40. Today two brahmins had meals. No விஷ்ணு இலை. Then we ate. We returned by 5 PM.
14 Dec 2008, Sunday was the கிரேக்கியம். We reached Sugavanam's house by 9-30. Nava graha pooja and homam were performed. It was over by 11-45 AM. Today the meals were from a caterer. And today there was a good crowd for the function. We left by 3-30PM.
Savithri was the main participant in cooking and she was "helped" by Vijaya, Sudha, and Saroja.
Thus the Varusha Aaptika kariyams of Girija were performed in a fitting manner. As there was no homam on any of these days, the rituals were completed in less than an hour each day.
One year has passed by since Girija left us.
