Instead of skipping it totally, it is better to do it in the evening. Nothing wrong in this. In today's hectic world, such changes are to be accepted.

Pranam,I started the Tarpanam yesterday on Ganesh Chaturthi with modifications in the beginning by praying to my departed father, family God, and then to Maha Ganapati to make it a successful endeavor; continued with the Tarpanam process and ended with naivedhyam. Today I am not able to do it at the same time though and will have to do it in the evening. That concerns me. Is it OK to do it at different times everyday?Thanks,Alamelu

No, this is not true. Shiva's Power is known Shakti and this Shakti is named as Lalita. In such poetic parlance, such exaggerations are permitted.

But they say Shiva was created by Lalitha... I mean all the 3 brahma, vishnu and shiva were created by shakthi de say... Isn't dat true?

Error in Panchapuja is corrected. Thank you for pointing out the error. Tarpana water can be poured into roots of plants and trees and should not be touched by our feet.

This is not possible. In Mahāṣoḍaśī, the placement of bijas are important. Entire Pañcadaśī is encased (sampuṭīkaraṇa) between the first line which is reversed in the last line. Hence, Mahāṣoḍaśī is considered as the Supreme mantra.

Then this would be as potent as Maha Shodashi as this paduka contains most of the bijas that we can find in Maha Shodashi and in addition we also have phrem (usually used with KamakalaKali mantras) and also is more intricately arranged with additional bija's.Based on the above interpretation this alone can be used for practice?

Mantra siddhi can never be guaranteed. Mantra siddhi purely depends upon our perseverance and dedication and sincerity. It is not the count alone that matters. We have to work with our prana on mind and consciousness.
