Guest guest Posted January 4, 2007 Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 Dear All, Wish you all a very happy New Year. I have uploaded on our homepage a photo taken by our very own Gauri Saraswati. It is a picture of Maa and Swamiji walking to the main temple. They are all smiles, either obliging Gauri with a pose, or laughing at some private joke... Thank you Gauri for sharing the picture.

Guest guest Posted January 4, 2007 Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 Ah, this picture is so amazing. As soon as I opened the page, I exclaimed loud enough for Michael to look up from across the room. We are "at the Mandir" tonight, and I thought while Srini chants at the fire and Michael follows along, I would sneak a peek at the group doings. And there it was, this very magical picture. A Gauri offering again...she delighted us earlier tonight in arati as the cameras caught the joy in her face and made us smile. I know those cameras must bring a sense of no privacy which might sometimes be disconcerting, but for us out here, it is a gift beyond measure. We can't thank all you Mandir folks ever never enough for letting us into your world of worship.

Guest guest Posted January 4, 2007 Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 Namaste Happy New Year. There were some wonderful group pictures taken during the retreat. I hope Gauri and others will post them. The retreat was life changing, and as one of the facilitators, I came home so blissed out that everywhere I looked, creation was bright and shining, and love filled every atom. Maa and Swami turn up the volumn and broadcast even more love and blissful energy when we have retreats and special pujas, homas, etc. They spare no effort to spread joy to all, and, as soon as they see someone up and dancing, they send out ever more energy. One truly observes this truth: when a devotee takes one dancing step towards God, God dances 10 steps towards the devotee. It is very interesting having the camera and video recording every action in the Temple. We know everything goes to the entire universe and it is very humbling that in this modern age, 2 profound beings can touch the entire world from a simple Temple in the hills of Napa. Whenever we start sadhana, we invoke the Gods and ask them to bless the entire universe. And we know they do. It is truly amazing. My family and I feel so blessed to be part of this adventure. While we want every person to come and visit and meet us all in the flesh, we know it is not so simple. Luckily, Maa and Swami know no boundries and their bliss really does flow into all hearts in creation. Please keep coming thru the camera to join us, and take Maa and Swami's love and blessings.
