Missing Volcanic Glass

Aum Namah Sivaya

We've recently observed an interesting happening at the aadheenam. Out front of Kadavul Temple has long sat a rather lovely piece of volcanic glass which was gifted to the monastery many years ago. Several weeks ago it was stolen and has not returned. Word (and misinformation) has spread, and we have had a few frantic calls from our island Kama'aina who have thought that it was the large 700 pound crystal that was gone. So to everyone we would like to say, don't worry, the Crystal Lingam is more than safe. Aum.

    My question is why, followed by how? That stone was always like a lovely beacon leading me up the path to Nandi and Kaduval…

  5. Dhavala says:

    Whenever I go to the Temple that beautiful stone always welcomed me.

    My favorite stone at Kauai Aadheenam! I was always intrigued by this blue color stone! Once, one of our monks explained to me what it was in fact…

    May Lord Nataraj forgive the greedy soul

    Jai Ganesha! Yes, it was an andara crystal from northern California, gifted to the Aadheenam years ago by a lady from that area. Aum Namasivaya

    After reading the comments, I feel terrible. I will send it back soon. Iā€™m sorry.

    This saddens me greatly. In my first trip to the Temple in 2012 I got a couple photos of this Andara – having absolutely no idea what it was, but I was enthralled. Heard about them a few years later and fell in love with them, and work with my own now, though definitely not as large as this one is. I do hope it’s returned, or at least found.
