Boiling test/ To Ray Kumar

[Guest guest]

Namaste Ray,

 

Been offline until just then. Now trying to catch up with emails

and messages........

 

Ray, yes please snail send your beads to Sri DDji in California for

authentification. This is practical since you are both in the same

continent. I am sure he will give you his contact details.

 

Om Namah Shivaya

Bountiful blessings
