Sacred Fire Ritual
The monks had a homa this morning. Satguru Bodhinatha did not attent, still resting up from his trip to Canada. Paramacharya Sadasivanathaswami filled in, burning prayers and giving a short talk about current monastery projects and about virtues, specifically the virtue of being on time, which Bodhinatha observed as being a form of respect for the meetings, people and events one is involved with.

Bodhinatha's Latest Upadesha: "Detachment from Experiences; Importance of Daily Vigil" (May 5, 2013)
All experiences are good experiences, necessary to get us here. Awareness of aspects of ourselves that are constantly changing is a liberating perception, breaking our chains to mundane areas, detaching from instinctive and intellectual to go into superconscious. The greatest challenge facing youth today is the lack of relating to the devotional side of Hinduism. Daily practice, daily vigil, moves us forward spiritually. Commentary on Merging with Siva, The Master Course, Lesson 21.

The Homa fire in Kadavul Temple is such a deeply spiritual service. If you have plans to visit Kauai, I recommend timing your visit to include this.
