Not only did nearly 15 people attend the earliest sunrise Agnihotra of the year, but many of the conference attendees and speakers came for sunset Agnihotra as well.
The scientists and practitioners of yoga and ayurveda seemed truly to appreciate the Vedic origins of Homa Therapy. We were also interviewed by “Yoga and Ayurveda Magazine” and TV/YouTube outlets. |
