Even if the Yagya brings less than what you have defined as total
success, is that justification for not doing it at all? I don't get
that logic. It is not a black and white world, imo. Your comment is
like finding out from the physician that to attempt to cure your
total inability to walk will result in walking with a pronounced
limp, so you then declare to the doctor, "well then, forget it, I'll
continue in my wheelchair". ??? I would add that like any endeavor,
large or small, intution and common sense are the best guides on
whether or not to proceed. :-)
