There are times when life seems to fall into place, a synchronicity of sorts appearing to pervade all of our thoughts and actions and ‘efficiency in action,’ the synthesis of yoga, becomes our modus operandi.
Then there are those seemingly more frequent occasions when the level playing field feels to be at a severe angle, when computers crash, cellphones go wonky, and we as well as our colleagues seem off kilter. Then what?
This is where the rubber meets the road, where the professionals earn their room and board. Continue reading “The Spiritual Path: An Inconvenient Convenience”
Staying at Om Shree Dham Homa Farm, Hunter Valley, Australia
Karuna Coleman sent the following report:
I moved in to Om Shree Dham on 14th January, 2013, knowing that I had issues that I wanted to break free from.
After 4 months of Agnihotra and other Homa Fires, joining in on ongoing Tryambakam Fires for Full and New Moons, an organic vegetarian diet and living in the special tranquility that Homa creates in nature, with Grace holding my hand, I broke through a major core issue that I had been running from for some time and didn’t even realize what an intense influence it was having on my life, from decision-making to relationships. The breakthrough was so profound it has changed my life.
I am confident, free and at peace within myself and very clear. Continue reading “Staying at Om Shree Dham Homa Farm, Hunter Valley, Australia”

An Agnihotra tour and Homa Therapy workshops were held in Victoria in early May. Maryann Billian from the Baltimore Homa Community in the U.S. and Joshua Hoare, Agnihotri from Melbourne assisted Lee on the tour. It was lovely to share the experience, always highly inspiring and enriching.

Agnihotra for Balance
Richard from Western Australia writes:
“My partner Sian taught me Agnihotra in March, 2012. I found doing Agnihotra took a measure of precision, practice and dedication to get right. When you do, it’s an amazing practice that, done diligently, reaps many rewards. Sian and I typically perform two fires, as we have a pyramid each. It’s a beautiful practice to do together.

Agnihotra in Panama
I received the following letter from Rev Mike Menkes:
I stayed in El Valle, a picturesque mountain town just two hours from Panama City in Panama from July to December, 2012 with Agnihotra performed several times a week. My property manager complained to El Corregidor (town magistrate) that I had damaged my rental casita.
I performed Agnihotra the morning of our hearing. Following my suggestion, El Corregidor visited the property, where the manager had complained that I had ruined the gas stove. She pointed out that the plastic rings around the oven dials had melted and that I was an irresponsible tenant. Continue reading “Agnihotra in Panama”
Agnihotra is the Way
Agnihotra is the way. People will begin to see now. They can easily feel the tremendous peace that comes by Grace by its mere performance alone. The shape of the Agnihotra pyramid should not be interfered with. Now we have to be more subtle with YAJNYA. Time is crucial. Times are desperate. In order to get the optimum effect from Agnihotra, the shape of the pyramid should be intact. To rise much higher with single effort do all actions out of love. Discipline your children out of love. The child will feel that and it will adhere to the discipline much quicker because it senses love is behind that. You can be firm but still be gentle. Respect each other no matter how harsh a criticism seems. LOOK TO THE SOUL NOT TO THE PERSONALITY. All are being lifted now. No one is at fault. There is no reason for blame. |
Now is the Time for All Good Men and Women to Come to the Aid of Their Planet
That we live in “interesting” times understates matters. Perhaps all times were interesting, but the magnitude of the challenges on our individual and collective plates currently, makes the word ‘understatement’ seem like an understatement!
