nitya and naimittika karmas

[Guest guest]

Hello everybody. I have been on this list for more than a month now. I

have thoroughly enjoyed the experience so far.

 

I have a question regarding the vedic nitya and naimittika karmas for

a srivaishnava brahmin.

 

1. Are there any that involve animal sacrifices? Example?

 

2. How do srivaishnava brahmins perform these karmas?

 

I wish to clarify that I am *not* asking for arguements for or against

animal sacrifices. I simply want to know what the practice is. I

did search the archives and find related discussions but did not

hit upon the facts that I am looking for.

 

thanks.
