Enjoy this pano shot of the gardens of Iraivan Temple. This is the view on the temple’s east side where we find not only plants but the continuing of Rishi Valley’s stream into the off-camera Wailua River. It isn’t, however, only plants who find themselves in residence here. Many, many creatures have deemed this area a suitable home. Herons, egrets, koi, tilapia, frogs, toads, myna birds, dragon flies, chickens, doves, snails, and more all live in the area that you see here. It’s their home just as much as it is ours and we’re grateful for their presence as a reminder that Siva as Vishveshwara, the Lord of Everything.
