From Denver, Colorado

Our pair of peripatetic swamis flew off to Denver this morning, arriving in the Mile-High city by 10am

Rajkumar Manikam met them at the airport and drove them to their first mission, a meeting with Bobby and Kathy Page in Loveland, Colorado. Here the pages show the swamis the unfinished bronze statue of V. Ganapati Sthapathi, the master architect for Iraivan.

They took us through the shop, explaining the many steps it takes to cast and weld and chase and patina a piece.

Bobby has been reading Gurudeva

s trilogy and following TAKA for a couple of years and said it has changed his life, and his wife's as well.'
