Cleaning Lord Shanmukha
Today was Ashram Sadhana day in the Aadheenam. Consequently, many areas and many items were cleaned by the monks, including Lord Muruga in the form of Shanmukha beneath our large banyan tree on Thiruneri. Task forcers Dean and Kodiswara teamed up and gave Him a good cleaning and oiling. This murti is about nine feet (2m 75cm) tall, so it was quite a job on their part.
Our New Noni Washer in Action
After months of toiling and research, Acharya Arumuganathaswami was ready to test out his recently-crafted barrell washer. Our method of cleaning the freshly harvested fruit heretofore was entirely manual. While effective, it isn't entirely the most efficient. Automating some of that process will aid in the overall production.
