[Guest guest]

Dear Swami,Dandavats Pranams!Srimathe Ramanujaya Namaha!I saw your website, it was very nice to see giving care and attention to the seniors members of our society.Few humble suggestions:1. It would also be nice to have a Krsna temple and have daily Aratic program with bhajans and discourses on Vedic scriptures. All residents participate for the daily morning spiritual program by chanting Thirupavai together and other stotras and in the evening by chanting Vishnu Sahasranama. Kindly place pictures and frames of all our Acharyas in the main temple room . If possible have the picture of Swami Ramanujar in all resident rooms.2. As you are serving vegetarian food, it would be really wonderful if you can cook without onion and garlic and there by offering it to the Lord makes it wonderful prasadam which can then

be offered to every one for their spiritual upliftment. Prasadam has lot of power and easily takes the consciousness close to the Lord.3. Invite devotees regularly to do bhajans and discourses which will inspire the residents of your ashram. Usually old people join the ashram because they are not cared for at their home and due to frustration, but by staying in a spiritual old age home they will understand it is a benediction rather than a curse.4. Initiation : This can be wonderful if you can train and make the residents take shelter of our Vaishnava acharyas (spirtual master) by taking initiation. You will be showing them the easy path back home back to Godhead. All residents should wear thirumankappu.5. As old people like to be engage, you can plan to engage the residents in services like gardening, making flower garlands (and sending them to nearby temples), cleaning temple pemises , cleaning

diety paraphernalia etc .6 Kindly install small speakers with less volume in every room and in pathways where bhajans , mantras and discourses keep on transmitting the divine vibration .7 Kindly do not have the facility to View the Idiot box(television),the main agent of Kali yuga.There can be more suggestions that can add up, am sure many conference members will have desire to start and support this sort of projects which is related to Vaishnava practices. At one point of time, am hoping and praying that i can start a old age and a orphange home in some divyadesham,abhimanasthalam or Purana sthalam.Kindly take no offenses for my suggestions. I have done with a sincere heart.Dasanu das,Manoram Chaitanya das.--- On Fri, 9/18/09, Madhavan <rammadhav wrote:Madhavan <rammadhav seniors home at salem."oppiliappan " <oppiliappan >Friday, September 18, 2009, 7:52 AM
