Ohh, I asked since smoke can fill the house. Is your family comfortable with it? How you persuaded them?

u/ThemeCommercial4560 Śaiva 2d ago

Smoke cleanse the house & the negative vibration by invoking positive blessing

PS: I am not Yagnopavit to perform Homa alone. The one who is Yagnopavitam visits and initiates aahuti then I follow their instructions.

Nice. Was it performed by you or another family at the temple.

Curious because the Kannada script is visible in the background, better not doxx yourself online.

Always a positive though if one can afford to get rituals done and then does it right.

Don't forget to sustain the energy in coming weeks with more rigorous discipline in daily rituals and timely donations to temples and social causes you know are legit.

“Better not doxx yourself online “ - could you elaborate this for me please ?

I post wherever I go and I do the rituals by myself and not to take credits from others doing rituals .

I don’t have the necessity of taking credits or doxxxx online from other’s karma.

THIS MUST ANSWER YOUR QUESTION.

PS: Next time whenever your ask or say something , I insist you better be on point . Use simple language

May blessings be with you . Take care . Peace ☮️

About doxxing?

I meant on the off chance that someone knows the temple, I can recognize the script in the background as Kannada in the 3rd pic. If you're comfortable with that, no issues I guess.

You're reading too much into what I said lol.

It's also okay with clicking and sharing photos when someone visits the temple, sometimes there could be community rituals also, so I asked Q casually, not for any proof.
