Gurudeva commissioned a giant Hanuman to be carved in India and decreed that He be installed in Iraivan's Sacred Garden, holding in His hand a small mountain on which Iraivan Temple sits. As you know, Hanuman arrived, but His base is still in progress in India.

Today we received these photos from the Bengaluru team showing the progress on this massive base. It is REALLY big, fully nine feet long and four feet high. Hanuman will stand 18 feet tall when He is installed for a thousand years.

During our most recent Maha Samadhi Observances, Shanmuganathaswami gave a class to all in attendance on the sacred cow with many dimensions of this most wonderful animal. In an instant all the half sleeping children in the class moved to the front and started asking many questions! This was their favorite class of the week! After class, one of our Kulamatas created a project where they could channel their appreciation and love of the cow.
