The Halapa family from Fremont, California, used to attend Gurudeva's Palaniswami temple in San Francisco. This is their second pilgrimage to Kauai and they were very impressed with the progress of Iraivan Temple.



Tour day at the monastery with a lot of bright souls, most of whom have been to India. Helmut Witt in the far back left, said he met Gurudeva briefly five years ago and it changed his life forever.


Our guest go off to Iraivan Temple site under the view of a crystal clear view of Mount Waialeale.

It has been a quiet phase with everyone working intently on their various projects. On the news front:
  • Bodhinatha's visit to Malaysia is shaping up well.
  • Dancing with Siva is just a week away from shipping to the printer in Malaysia.
  • Tongans are on the property doing small stone works here and there, most importantly the top of Muruga Hill.
  • Temperatures have dropped to 60 degrees in the morning. Perfect for a cool dip in the Wailua!
See you all on Sun One next phase!
