And for Nyasa:

What is Mahanyasam? Mahanyasam is a sacred set of Vedic mantras, primarily associated with the Krishna Yajurveda tradition. It is an integral part of the Rudra Namakam (Sri Rudram) and Chamakam . The term "Mahanyasam" literally means "the great placement" (Maha = great, Nyasam = placing or touching of body parts). It involves chanting mantras while mentally and physically assigning deities to specific parts of the body, preparing the seeker for higher worship and Rudra japa.

"The NCSS software is and has always been the best solution for my work as an assessor. I have been exposed to many other analytical and statistical software applications and have found there is no other product on the market that can match the ease of learning, comprehension of function, and the frugality of price the NCSS product offers..."
