Dear friends, Small correction: The expression "kATA-prashnam" is actually "kaatu-prashnam" (Tamil colloquial used by pundits in their trade parlance). It is not to be confused with the Vedic "kATakam". The "kaatu-prashnam" is also not part of the Upanishads but comprises of certain passages in the Vedas which are never recited in homes. As far as the Upanishads are concerned, I am advised by my knowledgeable friend in Kuwait, they are all eminently fit to be recited at homes on auspicious occasions. Just wanted to put things in the correct perspective. Sudarshan __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo! Shopping - Mother's Day is May 12th! http://shopping.yahoo.com
