As promised, more pictures and some videos are due for this post, to add a small note as a newsworthy subject – The Advaita Siddhantha Dharmasala Food Fair 2008 has been successfully organized and completed on 21st December 2008 – Sunday. It was a great project which was almost single handedly done by our Sadhaka Sundra Natha. Sorry no pictures of the food fair event because the camera guy was busy selling last minute food fair tickets!! Aum Namah Sivaya!  Please click on the photos below for a clearer view.

The Shifting Of Ashram

Ashram has finally shifted from the previous place which used to be in Indian Settlements. Finally, after 15 years of toiling and performing dharma and living out our karmic patterns, we have moved from one place to another place. The only difference is – The new place is a heaven compared to the previous one. As would Guruji said to us in a recent meeting – “It’s a holiday everyday when i am here!”. The shifting process itself was a very very tenous, tiring and difficult process, Most of us went into some form of breakdown during the process and the saddest part was Guruji had fallen seriously sick due to excessive work and very less sleep and rest. So, then.. now we bring you the pictures and some videos of the shifting process and the excellent Shiva Temple Kumbha abhishegam that was done out of pure love and devotion. Aum Namah Shivaya!  PS – More pictures on the next blog post

Sunday Class

30th November 2008 – Sunday Classes, Surya Namaskar & Hatha Yoga + Hinduism Classes was a special event today. Thanks to the committee of the Shri Muniswaran Alayam the classes was held in a temple and it was a breathtaking feeling to be able to see the children practising asanas and learning in a blessed environment. It was a relaxed and cooling and feeling like being watched by devas while we perform our dharmas. The  Temple which is situated at the Kenneison Brothers land, is in the vicinity of our Ganesha temple. Guruji wanted to bring the children here as a part of the shifting process, to introduce to parents the future area where they will have to send their childrens for Sunday classes. Aum Namah Shivaya!.
