Purification of hands, mouth and asana Establishment of

Shiva’s mantra in the ten directions Taking the sankalpa for

has added in the following Meditation on Lord Shiva

Dear Nanda ~ this is a good lesson to me on patience. If I have a

question, at least read the next couple or all of the digest to see

if it is answered. It seems you did answer the question I asked about

parts of a puja. : ) If I still didn't feel like such a child with

all of this I'd be embarrassed. As it is all I can say is yippee! and

Nanda Ki Jai ~ Linda
