July 17th Homa

Today the monks begin their next lunar phase. A morning Siva homa was held in Kaduval temple, with offernings of ghee and flowers to the inner worlds. Through the fire, written prayers to the devas and mahadevas are burned. Bodhinatha gave an upadesha afterwards, discussing the art of being consistent in our everyday lives as it helps us to better understand our experiences.
