Silver Gifts from Kailas Ashram

When Jiva Rajasankara and the three silpis arrived from Bengaluru a few days back, they had many boxes of items for the monastery. One held these amazing silver puja items, given by Swami Jeyendrapuriswami, shown below with Jiva holding an alankara lamp. Swami knew Iraivan would need these when the temple opens and commissioned them made by one of South India's finest silver smiths. Such a precious gift to Siva. Nandri, Swami. They will serve us for many years into the future.

Swami gives the silver puja items over to Jiva for the journey to Kauai. Looking on is a marble statue of Trichyswami, founder of the ashram

Imagine the elegance of the Iraivan pujas.
