Vanakkam, I am updating this blog after a while – it’s been a tremendous time since the last update on this website. Much has been done. A lot has been achieved. With the guidance from Gods & Guru. This post is about the long overdue blog on our successfull dinner event that was held recently where we managed to achieve manifold purposes, introducing the ashram, raise fund for the monastery in Bentong, explaining the ashram’s function etc.. Here it is the show’s picture : Enjoy. Aum Namah Shivaya!

Maha Ardra the final Year End Ardra are usually celebrated in ashram with great festival. This year’s Ardra is special in a sense because it’s the first Ardra puja at the new place and Gurunathan is performing the homa. It was a special, joyous night with many new faces and old joining the puja. Annandhanam was served at the end of the puja ceremony, unfortunately it had kind of became a supper because the puja finished quite late into the night. By the time the food served it has already midnight! Aum Namah Sivaya!

Here is the video as i promised. Sorry for the late posting, i had to try learning a way to post videos in wordpress blog! Anyway enjoy the video, it’s not that clear due to very limited resolution, it was caught using a simple camera phone. Hmm.. wish i have a better recording hardware.. anyone out there got any intention to give away a free HD Digital Video Camera? Ahem. Okay Just Kidding. Aum

After some time, we’re posting more pictures of the kumbhabhishegam pictures..

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.

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

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!.

Bringing everyone to a speedy update on our fast moving Ganesha Land Project. The work is ongoing and gearing up to a notch. We’ve dug the Homa pit, building for the deities are coming up, temporary cabins have been identified and concrete for the beams are in place. Let the pictures tell you the rest. Aum Gam Ganapathaye Namah!
