Right, apparently I have no idea how to upload a file to this blog, no surprise there, so I have uploaded the Sri Narmadastakam words to the same site as my ashram guide:

Everyone who gathered at the temple in the evenings seemed to enjoy this chant as much as I do, so let's practice it in anticipation of our next visit!
In other news, 21 days of anusthan flew by in a moment. Sitting and repeating the guru mantra for 7 hours a day surely outdoes sitting and working at a silly job 7 hours a day. My sedentary lifestyle during the past 18 months of intense computer work turned out to be the perfect preparation for the anusthan. Ironic, considering that I thought I should be doing more hatha yoga to prepare.
And finally (slight pun there), the dying rites were intense and exquisite. I am surely the luckiest person on the planet, with Shri Anandi Ma as my teacher, whose sole concern and focus is my ultimate welfare.
