Today at Kauai Aadheenam

We bring you today a series of photos from Malaysia of Bodhinatha's seminar there...

Meanwhile he and Senthilnathaswami flew off to a function in Arkansas early this morning.

Ravichandran has the story from Malaysia:

"A medical practioner, Dr Siva and wife came all the way from Triang, Kedah.(nothern Malaysia) to attend seminar and got blessing from Satguru Bodhinatha Veylanswami."

A day before Satguru's arrival for What is Hinduism? Part 2 seminar , Iraivan floor sponsporship fund raising organising team members met at Sister Gowri's place to discuss plans.

Welcome Shanmuganathaswami! So happy to meet Swami at KLIA aiport. Satguru and Swami just arrived from Singapore to attend What is Hinduism? semianr Part 2, at Kalamandapam ,Kandaswamy Murugan Temple, Scots Road, Kuala Lumpur on 16th March.

Our beloved Satguru at KLIA airport. Tomorrow, on 16th March, Bodhinatha will be delivering What is Hinduism? Part 2 at Kalamandapam, Kandaswamy Murugan Temple, Scotts Road.

Satguru were welcomed by Dr Maruthu and Senior Kulapathi, Appasamy Kuppusamy at KLIA airport.

Senior Kulapathi , Appasamy Kuppusamy, church members and students rushed to airport to welcome Satuguru. Always a wonderful bliss and bless to have our ``Asan'' and Swami visit Malaysia and meet devotees from this part of the region.

Section of seminar participants. A total of almost 450 people attended this insightful seminar. Participants were awed with Satguru's eloquant speech delivery aided by powerful eye-catching pictorials from notebook. The result - new found awareness and raised understanding about Hinduism.

A simple idea to track and record Floor-Stone donor schedule. This envelope and sponsorship record were given to floor-stone donors. They can track by ``ticking'' into the monthly column and check their payment progress as well upon receipt of payment. .

Our Guruparampara - welcomes seminar participants.

Live! On line donating! How happy to see them signing up and seeing the computer prompt `` Thank You'' upon personal particular entries were completed. A young lady from Kuala Lumpur fulfilled her wish to be a donor.

Simple but delicious refresehments!

Astonishingly, Satguru's siting posture (bava) reminds me a similar picture of Yogaswami...!!!!

Welcome Satguru & reverend Shanmuganathaswami to Malaysia!! As how our Saiva Dharma Sastra entails, devotees shall rush forward to receive Satguru as how we were to receive the Primal Lord - Siva at our door step! We laydown all our seemingly important task, mundane life chores and bask in joy of welcoming Lord Siva himself to our very own home! Jai Satguru!
