Thila Homam vs Tharpanam
Tharpanam is offered with water. Thila Homam is offered into fire, using sesame. Both are associated with ancestors. They take different amounts of time and space.
Choosing
Book Tharpanam if your family asked for theertha tharpanam at Agni Theertham. Book Thila Homam if they asked for a homam. Book both only when both were requested, and say so in one message.
Thila Tharpanam
Thila Tharpanam still belongs with Tharpanam. The sesame is mixed with the water offering. It does not replace the fire ritual.
