This information is furnished from own experience, while taking 
sankalpa not in just 1 but 3 different homas simulataneously (though 
all of them had a similar goal of prosperity). The vediks who 
conducted these homas were the ones who gave us insight into the 
importance of darbai. Similar information is contained in the book on 
sandyavandhana, amavasya tarpanam etc written by Sri Akkur 
anandhaachchaariar (1966 edition) 

This is for information. Even the entire series I intend to write is 
for sharing information. My part is only to to look at the rationale 
of the why and what of these in the course of my mails,as I find many 
inter connections and striking connections to what is found in 
Vedanta and cosmology.It is left to the readers to accept or not.

Regards,
jayasree saranathan
