Satguru Bodhinatha Veylanswami in Sri Lanka Visit to Shantilingam at Kopay
February 28, 2015On January 5th, 1983 on his 56th birthday, our beloved Gurudeva Sivaya
Subramuniyaswami brought a sivalingam from Kauai Adheeanam and installed it in
Kopay with his own hands. Gurudeva declared the lingam a "Shanthilingam." This
temple was built by the youth of Sri Subramuniya Kottam in 1983. Satguru was
with Gurudeva at that installation ceremony in 1983. After 32 years Satguru
returned to the Shanthilingam Temple during his January 2015 pilgrimage to Sri Lanka. Satguru performed an arathi to the Shanthilingam and blessed the Kottam children and devotees. Most of the children's parents were the same Kottam youth who helped build the Shanthilingam Temple so many years ago.
