Jayanthi in Lanka
News today from our orphanage in Sri Lanka, where Bodhinatha's 67th Jayanthi was celebrated in style.
Each boy made an offering and a wonderful elaborate puja was performed.
All offered their hands in reverential worship.
Then prostrated before the altar.
Babu, on the left, and his assistant gave a photo of Bodhinatha and a Tamil "Ten Questions About Hinduism" in the Tamil language to each boy.
Then all were fed a sumptuous meal, chanting the Bhojana Mantram to bless the lunch. Jai Satguru Bodhinathaswamiji ki, jai!

Bodhinatha's Latest Upadesha: "Detachment from Experiences; Importance of Daily Vigil" (May 5, 2013)
All experiences are good experiences, necessary to get us here. Awareness of aspects of ourselves that are constantly changing is a liberating perception, breaking our chains to mundane areas, detaching from instinctive and intellectual to go into superconscious. The greatest challenge facing youth today is the lack of relating to the devotional side of Hinduism. Daily practice, daily vigil, moves us forward spiritually. Commentary on Merging with Siva, The Master Course, Lesson 21.
