Bhoomi pooja was performed by Shri Parameswaran Nampoothiri from Meenakshi Temple, Houston. When I woke up early morning I was not sure that I will be able to participate. But HE provided me an opportunity to be there for the auspicious moment. The pooja started with Shanku naadam. While the pooja was being performed all those present chanted "Om Namo Narayanaya" and that "special vibration" cleared the dark cloud and the potential rain that could have marred the ceremony. That was HIS blessings. The pooja ended with a chenda meLam, performed by local members of KHS (Kerala Hindu Society) which was enjoyable. Unlike the Bhoomi Pooja for Guruvayoorappan Temple at NJ this was in a small scale but I liked the sincerety of the special committee members (mostly from KHS Houston) who organized it. They have acquired the land measuring 4.5 acres and hope to start the construction soon and complete it within 18 months to 2 years. They will need more help and HIS blessings to complete this project as planned. One member from the organizing committee told me that to participate in the Bhoomi Pooja for the construction of a temple is a blessing not only for the individual but for 23 generations of the past and future !!!. I am not sure of that but I felt that I was blessed while standing in front of the venue as the pooja was performed. Om Namo Narayanaya Chandrasekharan Menon Explore your hobbies and interests.
