February 16th Homa
This morning the monastics began the new phase with a morning homa. This phase will be 5 days long with Ashram Sadhana day on Sun 2 and an Ardra abhishekam on Sun 3. This morning's homa was presided over by Satguru Bodhinatha Veylanswami who has returned from his recent travels. He burned the hand written prayers in the sacred flames and, following the final arati, gave an uplifting upadesha.
"A jak fruit is large in size, but it hangs by a slender stalk. Its power to hang lies in the strength of the stalk. In the same way, the whole world depends on an unknowable energy for all its activities. It is all the same whether this is called God, or given any other name." Siva Yogaswami
