To Srini: fire ceremony

[Guest guest]

Thank you for your suggestions, Srini. I have purchased the Advanced

Shiva Puja and looked over the homa section. I will be watching the

videos of Swamiji in anticipation of my next opportunity to practice

the fire sacrifice. I know that I am going to be making many errors,

but that seems to be the only way to learn.
