I spent several months living in Madison, Virginia and Baltimore, Maryland, among some long time Homa Therapy practitioners, and in the places where our dear Shree Vasasnt Paranjpe was first instructed to come and teach Agnihotra, during the 1970's.
Madison Virginia, nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains, is a beautiful quiet community of individual families, surrounding the first ever 'Temple' or place of fire. Parama Dham, (means house of Almighty Father), was established by Shree Vasant in 1973, a sacred place of fire and strict disciplines in maintaining the fire, gives the feeling of a very peaceful, healing environment. It is almost as if I could hear the sounds of mantra weaving between the trees and the surrounding nature.
