New Ropes for the Temple Bell

Jai Ganesha!

Today the monks replaced the old ropes in Kadavul Temple which were used for ringing the temple's large bell. The previous ropes had lasted many long years but it was felt they were finally ready to retire. Over the years they had seen little fixes here and there and over time became in need of constant retying. Now we have bright, new ropes so we can ring the bell loud and clear for Lord Nataraja. Aum Namah Sivaya.

They served long and well
