* Since the priest who eats Shraddha food cannot perform priest services at the temple on that day, eating of Shraddha food is limited to only one priest per day and/or the cook.
The charges do not include Sambhavana to Priest and Brahmanaartha or bhokta Charges for temple could be either $ 350 or $450 depending on the number of priest used for the ceremony. If the priest performing the event eats, you do not ask the cook to be the bhokta. This does not include the Sambhavana for the priests and cook.
