Mauritius-- Off to the Mahebourg Temple
September 18, 2023A major event was held at the historic Shakti temple in the South, complete with beautiful chants at the Sivalingam pavilion, darshan of Ganesha and Muruga.
The Mahebourg Temple is a vibrant Hindu temple, known for intricate carvings, colorful ceremonies, and a peaceful spiritual atmosphere. It has been here since 1804.
A large group came to hear the two swamis speak. Anazingly, the leadership here is close to the Nandinatha Sampradaya and to this day has vivid dreams and visions of Gurudeva. They spoke knowledgeably about Challappaswami and Yogaswami.
A special dinner followed, the famed "Seven Curries" of the nation. Difficult to make as it is super complex, it was done by a smalll army of ladies who serve at the temple.
The swamis are paraded up the steps from the Sivalingam to the main temple.
The lingam pavilion looks over the naational river and the sunset beyond.
The hall was full of Siva\
s devotees. '
Easy to speak of Sivadyanam and Sivathondu.
Gurudeva sat on this dais in 1982.
