*An opportunity for devotees to sponsor one or more pillars as we install the four pillars surrounding the grounds of Yagnashala. Each pillar will be installed with the invocation of the Dikpala, or protector deity of the direction with a Sankalp (pledge) that includes the names of the sponsors. The directions with deities are: East (Sun), West (Moon), North (Nandi), and South (Yama).
Devotees may now sponsor the installation of the pillars, becoming themselves a Pillar of the Sambodh Community. This ritual is performed to protect Yagnashala, the surroundings and the devotees' homes, and to allow the entire function to proceed without any difficulties.
