Gurukkals Visit Monks

Sivasri Shanmugam Sivacharyar -- son of late Sivasri Sambamurthy Sivacharyar of Kaaligambal Temple, Chennai -- and Sivasri Sundaramurthy Sivacharyar -- principal of the Saiva Agama Pathashala -- came to the monastery recently and paid their respects to the monks. Wonderful conversations were had that detailed future plans for the Iraivan mahakumbhabhishekam and spreading the culture and tradition of Sanskrit to the next generation. These two powerful priests are working with the digitized Agama project and moving that mission forward at their centers.

We thank them profusely for visiting and uplifting us all with their wonderful vibration.

Gurukkals come to the morning meeting at the Ganapati Kulam\

s office and immediatly pay their respects to Paramacharya Sadasivanthaswami. They chanted and gave fruit offerings. '

These two have quite a bit of history with us and feel right at home

We had a unique visit and hope these priests can come back in the near future. They were able to make the trip a part of their regular mainland adventures.
