The heartfelt appreciation from Our community Members for the services offered by Pundit RAM SHASTRI.

"We were delighted to have Ram Shastri come and do the blessing for our new home. It felt sanctified, cleansed, and uplifted, He is a rare soul."
***John and Kosa Ely

"Before spending our first night in our newly constructed home Ram Shastri purified the atmosphere with a beautifully and spiritually surcharged house blessing ceremony. We got started off on the right foot and we are very grateful."
***Dr. David and Nirmala Eldredge

"I have had several opportunities to attend various ceremonies presided over by Ram Shastri. When he chants the sacred mantras invoking the higher beings to come, one can feel whole atmosphere changing in wonderful way. It's almost as if the air itself begins to glow."
***Harinama Cintamani dasi
