Little Teva Receives His First Solid Food
Sudarsanarao and Mani Akkineni came from Chicago area to guide the annaprasana samskara for their 6-month-old grandchild, Teva. Teva lives in Maui island with his sister Tulasi and parents Roopa and Joseph.
A flower, book, pen and money are traditionally placed in front of the baby to see which one he'll crawl toward first, thus perhaps indicating future tendencies.

Commentary on Merging with Siva, The Master Course, Lesson 21.
