June 17 Homa
This Morning the monks began their new phase with our weekly homa. It is also Ardra Nakshatra giving the sacred ceremony extra potency. This is the start of a six day phase, beginning with this homa, then an Ardra abhishekam to Lord Siva later in the day. Later in the phase will be our monthly Ashram Sadhana day, when the monks clean the whole monastery.
Satguru Bodhinatha Veylanswami is still traveling, but will be returning in a few days. Paramacharya Sadasivanathaswami sat in to burn the written prayers and to give a talk at the end of the morning's worship.
"Examine yourself every day - examine yourself in heart, body and mind." Siva Yogaswami
