New Phase Begins With An Auspicious Homa
We started Sun One with a homa and an inspiring upadesha from Satguru Bodhinatha Veylanswami.
Little Shama Sendan had her head shaved and received her Chudakarana Samskara this morning. Bodhinatha blessed her with sandalwood paste on her head.
She was very quiet and seemed blissful to be so blessed.
Bodhinatha gave an excellent bhashya, or explanation, on Gurudeva’s teachings about how the intellect is a tool for the soul.

I really appreciate and enjoy the daily description of Kauai Aadheenam events and pictures; it allows me to feel almost as a participant myself. I am somehow especially moved by images of the homa fire. It is the first thing I turn to in the morning after reading the daily lesson.
Thank you for providing this each day!
