Many thanks to Sri. Vijayaraghavan and Sri. Madhavakannan for
their responses re: "missed" sandhyavandanam.  Adiyen was in such
a situation last night, unable to perform sAyamsandhyA.  In keeping
with the suggestion by Sri. Vijayaraghavan (vide Sri. Navalpakkam
Swami), I did the following today morning:

(1)  After first Achamanam and praNAyAmam, sankalpam as:
      "Sri bhagwadAjnyayA, Sriman nArAyaNa prIthyartham,
        pUrvedyu: sAyam sandhyAm upAsishye".

(2)  During argyupradAnam, after first 3 argyu:s and prANAyama:
      "Sri bhagwadAjnyayA, Sriman nArAyaNa prIthyartham,
       sAyam sandhyA kAlAtItadosha prAyaschitArtham,
       turiya argyupradAnam karishye".  [one additional argyu:]

And (I wasn't sure about this, so will appreciate any comments)
I completed sAyamsandhyA facing westward, although the sun
was rising in the opposite direction in the morning...!!

Regards,
-Srinath C.
