Guest guest Posted September 18, 2002 Report Share Posted September 18, 2002 Namaste everyone, Since my sampradaya gives me freedom to associate with other traditions and lineages, I really would like to learn the Puja arts. The Hindu community in Montreal (where I reside) is pretty closed to Westeners. I contacted every priests, brahmins and pandits by fax, mail, in person and email but nobody wanted to perform the namakarana- samskara rite of passage. I really feel I belong to Sanatana-Dharma, especially of the Shakta sect. What would be your advice to start to build satsang with fellow Hindus? Can namakarana-samskara be performed at distance? It's after reading "How to convert to Hinduism" by Sadguru Subramuniyaswami that I felt this urge to convert completely. I obtaines a letter of severance from the religious groups my parents baptized me in (which was a hard procedure in my case - it took about 6 months before the ending-). Being physically distant from my Guru-Mother is a great teaching. I get some cyber-satsang with fellow gurubhais and other disciples of my Parama-Guru, Sri Neem Karoli Baba but I would love to enter in bhava with fellow brothers ans sisters. What should be done next? Thanks a lot! With prem, Varuna always the my Guru's padukas P.S Please excuse the English mistakes, French is my native language.
