Dear yajaman please note:—


Until now we have avoided setting fees for Pujas, since it is our sacred duty and not our business,
but due to the fact that some yajamanas have been unfair in their charity, indifferent to the value of
our time and unmindful of the cost of living to which we too are subjected, we are now compelled
to set a minimum dakshina of $250 per ceremony.
