Model for the Path of Satgurus
This is the third model completed by Martin Mosko for the Iriavan temple gardens. The Path of the Satgurus. Stone statues of the lineage's Gurus will be displayed at the orange markers, each is where a satguru will reside.
Monastery Garden Produce
The Monastery Gardens continue to flourish under the care of the Siddhidata Kulam. Here are just a few examples of their produce. The garden grows enough food to support the whole monastery.
A Rare Discovery in the Gardens
Today we stumbled upon this hybrid crinum, a flower which is usually bright orange, pink or white, but to find these ones flowering red and green is truly a rarity.
First Delivery from the Quarry
Today a test run was made, bringing the first four of what will be hundreds of boulders from the Eleele Quarry to the temple site. We proved that the road is strong and the system does work. Even though these four boulders weigh about 25 tons all together, they are small compared to stones we hope to have. Designer Martin Mosco is hoping for 40 stones in the 20-25 ton range!

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.
