Hare Krishna

prabhuji you suggested :

One should first learn the upanishad(s) that belong to ones shakha.

>  prabhuji is it indispensable for smArthAs to do *shiva panchAyatana
pUja* or nitya devatArchana before undertaking upanishad studies in a
traditional manner??  I was told by one of vedic pundits that apart from
sandhya vandanam one should perform vidhi pUrvaka nitya devatArchana before
persuing studies in vedanta.  Pls. clarify.

Hari Hari Hari Bol!!!
