“Too” Much Grace Maria Broom
In the West African country of Ghana where English is a mandatory subject
for the children who get to go to school, the word “too” is often
used where we in America would say “so”: ”Oh Auntie Maria,
you like these groundnuts too much.” It is delightful to hear, and
so I borrow it to describe this, my third visit to Ghana. Following in the
footsteps of Homa Therapy volunteers Ross Ford, Noni Faruq and Frank Nelson,
I went there this time for two weeks in hopes of helping to further introduce
the science of Agnihotra and Homa Therapy farming, and while there I was to
meet up with veteran Homa Therapy teacher Irma Garcia, also a volunteer, on
her first trip to this part of the African continent.
Because of a very last-minute change in plans for the people who were going
to host and accommodate us, we found ourselves headquartered at the home and
guesthouse of former first lady of Ghana, Obba Yaa Addo Afrifa, in Teshie
Nungua, just outside of Accra. It was a large house in the middle of a traditionally
enclosed compound. Generously fed and well taken care of, we were free to
do all of our Homa fires there and to receive guests who came to learn about
Homa Therapy farming. It was truly a perfect place for our work because everyone
knew of Madame Afrifa and could get to her home easily.
Long before we had arrived in Ghana, Frank Nelson from Baltimore, Maryland
had sent letters to various organizations, universities and government agencies
throughout the entire country explaining the importance of Homa Therapy farming
and letting them know that Homa Therapy volunteers would be there in early
May. He had researched the agricultural landscape of Ghana and had armed us
with resources and much-needed information about the land, the climate, the
crops and the efforts of many groups to achieve sustainable agriculture without
chemicals. The whole purpose of our trip was to meet with those people who
responded with interest to Frank’s letters.
One of the first people to respond to the letters and definitely the first
to come see us in Ghana was Mr. George Streetor, who is an agricultural scientist
and CEO of Aboso Royal Limited, which produces and exports rice and sugar.
He met first with me to hear about Homa Therapy and the sunrise/sunset Agnihotra
fire. Two days later, after recovering from a bout with malaria, he came again
and was able to talk with Irma Garcia more in depth about this ancient Vedic
science. She told him of the medicinal qualities of the ash from Agnihotra
and he gladly accepted a good amount from her which he began taking immediately.
He then promised to come and collect us and take us to a farm. He arrived
two days later with three people who each owned farms: Mr. Kwako Moako, Mr.
Kofi Agyeman and Miss Ayesha Quaye.
It was to Ayesha’s pineapple farm in the eastern region of Ghana
that we traveled outside of Accra. While there this first time we performed
a Vyahruti Homa and afterwards Irma gave an in-depth presentation of the
science of Homa and its power to heal land and crops.
Everyone was extremely interested in learning the basic Agnihotra fire,
so we began teaching the sunrise and sunset mantras. Our chanting attracted
the attention of the children nearby and they came and learned the mantras
as well. Ayesha then offered us a sample of her crops. It was delicious and
we reminded her how much more delicious it will be when she begins Homa Therapy
on her land. She made the commitment then and there to begin the practice.
When Irma told her about setting up a resonance point on her land that would
not only help her crops but also those of her neighbors, Ayesha said, “Let’s
do it,” and plans were made to come again at the end of the week to
set it up.
In between the visits to Ayesha’s farm we made three more presentations.
The first one was in response to a request made by Naomi Okine who is the
General Director for Social Responsibility and Rural Development for the Methodist
Church of Ghana, headquartered in Accra. We were able to meet with her and
the presiding bishop, the Most Reverend Asante Antwi, along with the Reverend
John Ackeifi, who is the Director of the Ecumenical Opportunities Center,
and Mrs. Lucretia Quist, who is the Director for Health and Sanitation. Irma
presented information to them about three different levels of farming with
Homa Therapy: small scale for one’s home, garden and personal health,
larger scale for the healing of forty hectares of poor land and diseased crops,
and very large scale farming of organic crops on six thousand hectares or
more. They expressed their interest and promised to send someone to a demonstration
of the basic Agnihotra fire, which they did the next day.
The following day we were off to Kumasi, a large city north of Accra some
four or five hours drive away. While in Kumasi we made two presentations.
The first was in response to a request from Dr. Joseph Sarkodie-Addo on behalf
of Professor R.T. Awuah who heads the Crop Science Department at the Kwame
Nkrumah University of Science and Technology.
The presentation was made before the entire faculty of that department.
Irma focused mainly on the successful healing treatment of Black Sigatoka,
which is a dreaded crop disease that had devastated many hectares of plantains
in Peru. Showing them photographs and government documentation, she explained
that the same could be done to help stop the loss of large quantities of cocoa
to Black Pod disease in Ghana While admitting their scientific skepticism
at the beginning of the hour, when Irma finished talking they had agreed to
adopt the practice of Homa Therapy on a few acres of their land so that they
could observe and document their findings.
When we had finished our program at the University we had an hour to catch
our breath, eat lunch and drive the short distance to the Royal Palace of
the King of Ashanti Region, a very large and important area of Ghana. We were
invited there as guests of Dr. Owusu Hemeng from the University of Winneba
in Mampong to make a brief presentation to the Golden Stool Heritage Foundation,
which is a committee of chiefs and technicians advising King Osei Tutu II
on production of food and industrial crops in Ashanti. Following the fifteen-minute
presentation they too expressed interest in Homa Therapy farming and stated
they would keep in contact with the Crop Science department at the University.
After the long journey back to Teshie Nungua and a brief night’s
sleep, we were up early and excited to go back to Ayesha’s land to
set up the first Homa Therapy resonance point in Africa. When we arrived
at the farm, Cranton, the man who works the farm, had the two buckets and
a large container of water there that Irma had requested for making the column
of mud. The area where the hut would be built had been cleared and accurately
measured and the hole where the first pyramid was to be buried had been dug
out. With our shoes off inside the cleared area we all listened and followed
instructions as Irma proceeded with setting up the resonance point which included
special mantras and the Vyahruti fire done nine times in nine separate copper
pyramids. Ayesha and Mr. Streetor together buried the first pyramid and everyone
helped in covering it with mud and building the column on top of which another
pyramid would sit. Irma explained that this specially charged area would
now act as a generator of healing energy that would saturate all the land
in the immediate vicinity up to forty hectares. When we finished the ceremony
everyone was so happy. Mr. Omako began singing a song in his language--”What
God has promised has happened.” We all joined in with the easy melody
and simple wording.
When Irma and I returned to the house we barely had time to shower and
eat before we received two visitors from a spiritual and agricultural group
called Forces of Light. Mr. Kudzo Aagbeve had responded to Frank’s
letter and when he found out we were almost at the end of our stay in Ghana,
he and a colleague drove down from Tema, a smaller city by the ocean, less
than an hour away from Accra. I was able to meet with them and introduce
the science of Homa Therapy but since I was leaving that night I was unable
to go with them when they took Irma to visit their farmland where they grow
citrus fruits and avocados organically.
Just as I was finishing my last evening meal at the guesthouse, another
visitor appeared, wanting a brief explanation of Homa Therapy farming. His
name was Jonathan Padi. He is a chief, friend to Madame Afrifa and owner
of the large Meccador Farms in Manya Krobo of the eastern region. After we
had given a brief presentation to Mrs. Afrifa a few days earlier, she had
told Mr. Padi about our efforts there in Ghana, thinking he might be particularly
interested because his farm and all of the land surrounding him had never
been treated with chemical pesticides or fertilizers. After I introduced the
basic elements of Homa Therapy and then explained the wonderful healing effects
it has on crops, soil, water resources and all living things in the vicinity,
Mr. Padi was immediately impressed with its simplicity and wanted to know
more. He made plans to come again and talk with Irma at 7 A.M. the next morning.
It was now time for me to finish packing and to get my good-bye hugs from
all of our new friends and family from the guest house who lovingly took care
of us while we were there: the ever helpful Madame Afrifa, her two nephews
Nana Kwame and Kwabena, Auntie Essie who prepared wonderful vegetarian meals
just for us, the lovely young Miss Portia, our brother Braimah, the always
smiling Nana Yaa, Alex Kumassah who traveled with us and helped with anything
we needed (he is learning Agnihotra for his own household), Charles Nketia
who happily drove us to Kumasi and back and forth to the internet cafes, and
our loving sister Janet Gyimah who is trying to open a vocational school for
girls in her village. Many blessings to all of them, for they truly helped
fill the spheres with love.
Because I had to check in Saturday evening for a plane that was scheduled
to leave very early the following morning, Madame Afrifa had made arrangements
for me to stay with people who lived near the airport and were traveling to
Baltimore on that same flight.
Bernard and Christine Ofori were going to attend the graduation of one
of their daughters from the University of Maryland. When Mr. Ofori asked
me what I had been doing in Ghana for the past two weeks I told him that
I was there to promote a specific method of organic farming. He asked me
to tell him about it and before that late night conversation was over I had
completely covered the three levels of Homa Therapy farming that Irma and
I were there to introduce. Mr. Ofori was “too” delighted. He
is a large scale wood merchant and he had been thinking of retiring from
that and completely focusing on cultivating his five thousand acres of virgin
farm land. We called Irma back at the guesthouse and I introduced the two
of them on the phone. Numbers were exchanged and plans were made for future
meetings. In the very early morning over tea before leaving for the airport,
Mr. Ofori asked me to explain Homa Therapy farming to his wife and two of
his daughters who were there. They were particularly interested in the medicinal
ash from the Agnihotra fires. I gave some to each of them and Joyce, one
of the daughters, planned to go see Irma sometime during her last two days
at the guest house.
Two weeks is not a long time, but somehow we managed to meet with just
about everyone who had responded to Frank Nelson’s letters. We talked
with but were not able to go see Mr. Alban D. Luguzuri, who is Project Manager
for the Gia-Nabio Agroforestry Project in Navrongo. Mr. Luguzuri lives in
the northern most part of Ghana near the border of Burkina Faso, a thirteen
hour drive from where we were staying. By the time we received his phone call
we could not make arrangements to meet with him. He is keeping in touch with
Frank and hopes that the next Homa Therapy volunteers coming to Ghana will
make him their first stop.
In addition to all of the meetings, the phone calls, the traveling
along hot crowded or bumpy roads, the mosquitoes and bathing by bucket, Irma
and I managed to start every day with 4 A.M. and 5 A.M. mantras before sunrise
Agnihotra. We learned that to be a Homa Therapy volunteer required a clear
and peaceful mind, which in turn required a willingness to communicate with
each other and to release whatever emotional attachments that surfaced and
clouded our basic desire to serve. The work was rewarding and humbling. The
lessons were invaluable and we are more than grateful.
I end this travelogue by saying I know three things: One—that Ghana
is waiting for more Homa Therapy volunteers to come and help keep the ball
rolling, or shall I say to keep the fires burning. Two—that the success
of this trip was purely because of the collective love and energy of so many
people who carried us each day in their hearts. And three—that this
whole important journey took place and unfolded as it did because of “too
much Grace.”
Commandment Nine: Swadhyaya
(Self-Study)
(From Ten Commandments of Parama Sadguru)
Pawaka Nah Saraswati —RigVeda 1-3-10
Purport: You will achieve purification through the study of Holy Science
given through Vedas and others.
Commentary:
Swa is Self: Adhyaya is study. Swadhyaya is Self study. You say, “My
leg is hurt; my finger is cut”. This clearly implies that you are not
the leg; you are not the finger. Continuing the search further you will notice
that you are not the body. Who is this “I” which says “my
leg, my finger”? Who am I? Search him. This is Swadhyaya.
Someone hurled abuses at you. Someone played a dirty trick on you. Someone
picked up the prize you aimed at getting. Someone stole a march over you.
How are you going to react? Is it anger, hatred, envy, jealousy, greed? Or
is it love, forgiveness, kindness? Intensify the search. Follow the Fivefold
Path. Then you will establish yourself in the attitude of doing actions in
unison with the Spirit that resides within. This is Yoga. This is Swadhyaya.
You cannot remain without action even for a moment. The action may be physical
or mental. The law of Karma states “Reap as you sow”. With every
action you forge a fetter around you. The chain may be golden or iron but
it is a chain. This ties you down to the cycle of birth and death. By non-attachment
to the fruit of your action, you can transcend this law and cleave through
the mountain load of past Karma. This is liberation. This is Swadhyaya.
The all-pervading Spirit could be cognized only through TAPA (self-discipline,
austerity, purification). Tapa is the third aspect of the Fivefold Path. When
the desires dry up soul vision dawns.
“When you wish to hear, IT assumes the function of the ear; when
you wish to see, IT assumes the function of the eye.”
TAPA intensifies your conductance for the voltage of Grace to manifest.
“The Spirit, the size of a thumb, resides in the hearts of men. He
is deathless. Even as you take out the blades of a reed separate Him from
the bodily sheath.”
—Kathopanishad 617
The Supreme Spirit is designated in the Vedas as THAT. Words cannot limit
IT and hence IT could only be described as “not this, not this”.
THAT is perceived when the mind conditioning is blasted. THAT is perceived
when the trinity of knower, knowledge and known is no more.
“Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.” —Matthew
5:8
“No man hath seen God at any time.” —John 1:18
These apparently contradictory statements are really not so. They connote
the same thing. How? Study of Vedas will illumine us on the subject. This
is Swadhyaya. Vedas are the first revelation given at the time of creation.
All the Divine Messengers that came later reiterated the same message in the
language suited to the conditions in which they graced our planet by their
manifestation. Vedas were revealed in Sanskrit. Sanskrit was nobody’s
mother tongue at any time. All the languages of the world contain words that
could be traced to Sanskrit. Sanskrit contains no words from any other language.
European scholars call Sanskrit the mother of European languages. The word
Vedas comes from the Sanskrit root VID, to know. Hence, Vedas means knowledge.
Vedas contain knowledge from amoeba to Almighty. But again, even if you know
all the Vedas it is not enough. That which is to be achieved is beyond Vedas,
beyond all scriptures, beyond words. Vedas serve as the total guide.
“Intellect is beyond the senses or the mind but THAT is beyond intellect.”
—Bhagavat Geeta 3-42
“Self realization is established neither through intellect nor through
sermons or discourses.”—Mundakopanishad 4-3
Mundakopanishad states that Vedas are high knowledge but again it is lower
knowledge. For higher knowledge you have to go to a qualified GURU who is
not only versed in Vedas but has experienced the state of eternal bliss. This
is Swadhyaya.
We may intellectually understand by reading all the scriptures that Almighty
power is ever present but our intellect will never be able to lay its grasp
on it. These are the intrinsic limitations of the intellect. This is
Swadhyaya. This is Grace.
A mere intellectual may be able to dish out discourses on Almighty, soul
and Karma while his own life may be a negation of his proclaimed principles.
A saintly person, a man of wisdom, lives his life according to his tenets
knowing fully well that bad Karma will bring forth evil results. He therefore
avoids evil Karma as anyone would avoid poison. To know the difference is
Swadhyaya.
A study of problems involved in the adherence to Yoga way of life, the
solutions offered by Vedas and all Divine Messengers like Krishna, Jesus,
Buddha, Muhammad, Moses and others is Swadhyaya. Swadhyaya unlocks the door
to the treasure of higher knowledge that is within us. Tapa and Swadhyaya
give us the ability to draw on this source of knowledge whenever we wish.
Then, we begin to do the right thing automatically. This step enables us
to notice the subtle effects of our actions.
Jesus says, “The Truth shall make you free.” —John 8:32
Through freedom you achieve tranquility, happiness and realize the Supreme
Self. Swadhyaya is the intellectual understanding of the Truth that makes
us free. The Truth is GRACE ALONE. Tapa prepares us for the unfoldment of
Grace within us. This is the “Kingdom of Heaven within you”
“In the beginning was the Word.” —John 1:1
Vedas call it SHABDA in Sanskrit. It is sometimes described as NADA. How
could this vast universe with tangible objects be based on an integrated vibration?
Discoveries in pure physics are a pointer in this direction. Can we establish
communion with this WORD? Vedic discipline explains all this. This is Swadhyaya.
The unstruck music of the universe could be heard with unfoldment of Grace.
This helps your concentration. OM, the initial vibration, is meditated upon.
The word OM does not belong to any language, not even Sanskrit.
“Before Abraham was I AM.”—John 8:58
What does this mean? The words Abraham, Ebrahim and BRAHMA come from the
same Sanskrit root BRIH meaning to expand. This leads us to the Divine principle
that pervades all creation. This is Swadhyaya.
“Be thou perfect as thy Father in Heaven is perfect.” (Matthew
5:48) This is the ideal to be realized. Fivefold Path is the means. What is
perfection? How do I cognize that I am perfect and made “in the image
of my Father”? This is Swadhyaya.
Unwittingly, we have handed ourselves over on a silver platter of technology
into the jaws of death. Begin AGNIHOTRA, the first aspect of the Fivefold
Path. This is the Divine blueprint for human survival given through Vedas.
YAJNYA is purification through the agency of fire. AGNIHOTRA is the smallest
form of YAJNYA. Practice of this purification will culminate in surrender
to His will. All your load of anxiety and tension is reduced. A new substance
is formed in the atmosphere which undoes pollution, cleanses the water resources
on earth and nourishes plant life. With added doses of pollution we are adding
to tension on the mind. We are in the grip of deadly bacteria on land, air
and water. Agnihotra is an antidote to all this and it puts us harmoniously
into the energy cycle of the universe. All this is stated in the Vedas. Atmospheric
purification leads to pranic purification and thus to mind purification. This
is Swadhyaya.
What is Karma (action), what is Akarma (evil action), what is Vikarma (specific
allotted task of a person)? Swadhyaya throws light on all this.
What is bliss? A child is engrossed in playing with his toys and is happy.
An adolescent is happy but the toy changes. The mind gets attached to a thing
and a person becomes happy. The consequences of this attachment push us into
the unending dualities of pleasure and pain. Why not train the mind to get
attached to something which will deliver us from this duality? What is the
best method for this? This is Swadhyaya. Sugar is sweet. But what is “sweet”?
You will not know until the tastebuds come into contact with the object. What
is bliss? You will not know until you meet a genuine Master. He grants you
the state of soul vision and this is bliss.
What is destiny? What is free will? Destiny is a cheque drawn on the bank
of accumulated Karma. By exerting free will you can override the pangs of
destiny. Free will is the biggest boon granted to humankind. By judicious
use of free will you can get over the cycle of birth and death. Maybe you
do not swear by rebirth. It does not matter. By proper use of free will you
will get rid of the cycle of a few pleasurable sensations followed by many
moments of unpleasurable ones. This is Swadhyaya.
Learn to control PRANA (Life Force). PRANA conquered is mind conquered.
This is Swadhyaya.
Buddha said in his last days to Ananda, “Be ye lamp unto yourself.
Be ye refuge unto yourself. Hold fast to Dharma as a lamp”. Buddha stated
at Benaras, “He who strives after holiness must avoid the two extremes.
Which two? A life addicted to pleasure for it is enervating, worthless, and
mean. Also the life given to self mortification, for it is painful, vain and
profitless ....
“By avoiding both these extremes has the THATAGATA arrived at
the Middle Path”. Pondering over this is Swadhyaya.
“It is the promise of God
But most men understand not
They know but the outer (things)
In the life of this world.
But of the End of things
They are heedless.” -Quran XXX-6, 7
Pondering over this is Swadhyaya.
Occult sciences bring home the fact that there are subtler regions beyond
the electron microscope, telescope or the scalpel of the surgeon. It is merely
probing into another subtler world with which the average person is not familiar.
Spiritual seances deal with departed people and disembodied spirits. This
is not the Holy science of the soul. Spirituality is beyond this. This is
Swadhyaya.
Jesus said, “Love thy neighbor as thyself.”
-Matthew 22:39
Only in the company of holy persons do we realize the main significance
of this sentence. We blurt out equality, liberty, fraternity. Sermons are
poured out en masse on this subject. Reflect deeply and you will realize that
all this is skin deep. We have to grasp that the same Spirit pervades all
and further that we have the freedom to be free. Then alone will we be able
to implement “Love thy neighbor”. Again, we should not forget
the latter half of the command which says, “as thyself”. To perceive
a subject correctly the intellectual faculty has to be unclouded. Non-attachment,
practice of Tapa, brings this about. This is Swadhyaya.
We go through vicissitudes of life as the pattern of destiny fructifies
in time. We may have to witness the marriage of a dear one day and his funeral
some other day. It is not given unto you what to see. However, it is given
unto you how to see by proper use of free will. This is Swadhyaya.
After what you have read above, you may think Swadhyaya is a very difficult
thing and maybe it is only for the intellectuals. If you do think thus you
are not thinking in the right direction. You start practicing Agnihotra, Tapa
and the other aspects of the Fivefold Path and automatically the clouding
of the intellect will disappear and you will be enabled to perceive things
the right way. This is unfoldment of GRACE. In due course your intellect and
your volition will be given proper bent and you will be thrown into the company
of holy persons. Circumstances shall be so arranged that you will be given
a link with a liberated soul, Master. If you choose to exert your free will
and be devoted to him your progress will be quick. If the Master is an AVATAR
mere concentration on his physical form brings back gift waves to you. Our
purification is thus aided.
If you talk to your auto for three hours and tell it, “Listen, do
not leave the highway and dash against a tree,” it is of no use. If
the steering wheel is turned it is bound to leave the highway and dash against
a tree. Even so is our mind. It works in grooves of habits and conditioning.
A thrust in some other direction is required. Devotion to the Master gives
this thrust and our journey is made easy.
Almighty is the Guru of all Gurus. It is the Divine plan that the chain
of Sadgurus continues. Every Master has an allotted period to do his work.
When the period is over he departs from this world. It is important to respect
this Guru tradition. Even the great AVATARS respect it. John the Baptist said,
“I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance; but he that cometh
after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear; he shall
baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with FIRE.”-- Matthew 3:11 “Then
cometh Jesus unto John to be baptized of him. But John forbade him saying,
‘I have need to be baptized of thee and comest thou to me?’ “--Matthew
3:13, 14
“And Jesus answering, said unto him, ‘Suffer it to be so
now; for thus it becometh us to fulfill all righteousness.”--Matthew
3:15
“And Jesus, when he was baptized went up straightaway out of the
water; and lo, the heavens were opened unto him and he saw the Spirit of
God descending like a dove and lighting upon him.”--Matthew 3:16
Like all Avatars, Jesus respected the Guru tradition and was baptized by
John. The words of John, “whose shoes I am not worthy to bear,”
represent the ancient Eastern tradition which Jesus fulfilled.
It is not given unto you what so see; however, it is given unto you how
to see. This is Swadhyaya.
Without a living Master we can progress thus far but not further. By loving
thy neighbor the Master will pick you up. This is Divine will. Swadhyaya knows
no vacation. Purify yourself and be at your Swadhyaya all the time until
Reality dawns. “THAT, knowing which everything is known” is Swadhyaya.
24-Hour Round-the-Clock
Yajnya in Tapovan
On March 25th here in Tapovan we celebrated the first anniversary of continuous
Om Tryambakam Yajnya with a large function. After morning Agnihotra we performed
traditional Aarti (worship) of Parama Sadguru Shree Gajanan and Lord Parshuram
with bhajans (hymns). This was followed by a Rudra Yajnya in which many people
participated. Then several Sanskrit students from the nearby city chanted
Veda Mantras. After this the lunch program commenced during which about two
thousand people were fed.
The day’s activities came to a close with sunset Agnihotra.
Many local dignitaries attended this function: notably Shriram Chaitanya
Bapu from Shri Chaitanya Seva Ashram, Dr. Satish Patil MLA, Prof M.P. Jambhale
from Dhule, Mrs. Suresh Thorat, wife of District Conservator of Forests, Mr.
Kulkarni, Magistrate from Parola, plus from as far away as Mumbai, Mr. and
Mrs. Prashant Karandikar and Mr. Kiran Samant. Without the support of so
many local people this Yajnya could not have continued for one year now and
we look forward to another. We acknowledge the support for this Yajnya given
by so many of the local people and with Shree’s Grace we hope to maintain
the Yajnya for a second year.

Dear
Satsang readers,
we’d like to share with you the following amazing healing experience
we had.
Our son Gabriel, age 19, went out to pick mushrooms in the forest together
with his friend, her mother and her brother. The same evening they consumed
those mushrooms and what a bad luck, got extremely poisoned. The picked what
is called in German a KNOLLENBLÄTTERPILZ, an extremely poisonous one.
Gabriel drove the whole family immediately to the hospital. He and his
friend had eaten a big plate of it, the mother had a little less and the
small brother had only a spoonful of the dish.
Gabriel still felt not that bad at the hospital, so they let him drive
home. Then he explained the story to us and we asked him to take a good deal
of Agnihotra ash, which he did. Soon after, vomiting and dysentery started
and lasted the whole night.
Next morning he again went to see his friend and her family in the hospital.
The doctors said that the friend was in a dangerous condition and it might
be that she would have to die. They requested him to go for a blood test,
as the livers of all the others had shown extreme injuries. What happened
was that Gabriel had a perfect liver diagnosis. They found nothing wrong,
and he recovered full strength after only one night of difficulties. His
friend had to stay another five days in the hospital and, thank God, recovered
also and now is doing fine again.
We are amazed about the power of Agnihotra Ash and Agnihotra fire and share
the information about it wherever we go. Everybody can help him/herself with
this little fire of Grace. We follow regularly new developments on Homa Therapy
of which Agnihotra is the smallest and basic technique through this news letter
SATSANG as well as through web pages such as: www.homatherapy.com or www.homatherapy.de
or www.homatherapie.at
All Love,
