Dear Sri Srikanth :

 

The sequence is as follows For Yajur UpAkarma ( Aug 19 for USA)

Rg & Yajur UpAkarma ( Aug 19 for India ) . Aug 19 is

PourNami Tithi & SravaNa Nakshathram :

 

At the ouset , Let me share with you an important point made by

Dr.P.N.Sridharan , the Hon.Sec of MadhurAnthakam Schools on

the importance of PrahAna (adhyayana) Homam as the angi in the UpaakarmA

observance in a private mail. The rest like Yajn~Opaveehta dhaaraNam ,

KaaNDa Rishi TarpaNam have been correctly pointed out as angAs

of the UpAkarmA . Dr.Sridharan points out that many perform th angAs

and leave out the angi . He says that the sankalpam " adhya UpAkaramaa

karishyE " has no meaning . Leaving out the angi is tantamount to not

observing UpAkarmA . The angi consists of performing PradhAna Homam with

Nine Rishi AahUthis and at the end observing VedArambham ( Ishethvaa and the

other mantrAs for the other vedAs ) .
