Dear Bhagavatas,
  I have heard from a few UpAdhyAyAs that one should recite Pancha Sooktams
only after learning it from a teacher, since it is part of the Vedas.
Is this true? Can someone shed more light on this? Are we allowed to recite
Pancha Sooktams by just reading from the script?
Regards,
R. Sridharan.
