Dear Lakshmi,
It is never said that one should take all these kinds of vritham by publishing to many.
Understand your mind is totally free from others, then how can others certify your doing?
Second, if you are doing the vritham to develop deep love with God then why should you fear about your vritham?
If there is deep love, there is no fear.
HariOm!
