Bodhinatha's Upadeshas: Peace, the Value of Temples and Monasteries

Satguru Bodhinatha Veylanswami

Bodhinatha’s Latest Upadeshas:“Temples, Monasteries, Peace” (June 22,2016)

A temple helps you be a more peaceful person, live more deeply inside and into our soul nature. Harmony in the home leads to greater tolerance in the community. The emanation of darshan from the aadheenam creates an inner vibration, radiates out, uplifts those who are connected to the monastery. And, their karmas go more smoothly.

Wailua Mission Iraivan Day

Each month the Wailua Mission members here on Kauai gather together for their Iraivan Day. Their contribution to the temple building project is to create lovely jewelry and rudraksha malas for sale at the Mini Mela gift shop. Their work has raised a great deal of funds for the temple. This month they were joined by Swami Ramana Swaroopananda, Brahmachari Vrajvihari Sharan and by our two taskforcers.

June 29 Homa

This morning begins a new phase at the monastery as the moon goes from a half moon to the new moon. This will be a short 4 day phase, immediately followed by Ardra and our monthly abhishekam to Lord Nataraja. As Satguru is traveling, Paramacharya Sadasivanathaswami filled in to burn prayers in the sacred flames and to give a talk afterwards. He discussed attachment and told a short related story.

"Attach yourself to Him who is free from all attachments. Bind yourself to that bond so all other bonds may be broken." Kural 350
