The sacred garden, like life, is always full of surprises. Sometimes a family of pigs bring a surprise of devastation, sometimes a gnarly vine brings a surprise of flowery show. Today four surprises came to us. And none was of the porcine kind.

The Library of Congress requested we send them all the Hinduism Today magazines going back to the first issue of December, 1996 to the present. Fortunately we have boxes of the Hinduism Today Collector's Set, all the issues from 1996 through 2010. Sannyasin Muruganathaswami searched through our collection of back issues at the monsastery and Sannyasin Shanmuganathaswami and Natyam Mayuranatha visited our warehouse in Sugar Creek, Missouri for the issues from 2011 to July-August-September of 2017. We were missing only one issue, October-November-December 2014, but Amala Seyon was able to provide us with a copy. Jai Ganesha!
