Preparing the Ground for Ganesha
Ever since our last shipment of containers, containing Iraivan Temple stones, we've had this small granite shrine sitting underneath a guava tree, not far from Iraivan Temple. Several days ago, we began the process which will eventually lead to its installation. As you may know, the San Marga path which will guide future pilgrims down to the Swayambhu Lingam square, has several important stops along the way. First, of course, is the Rudraksha forest. Then pilgrims will make their way through a corridor of bamboo. Later they will climb Muruga's Hill to reach his Vel, and finally make their way to the square. But before meeting Muruga, they naturally must beseech Lord Ganesha. This shrine will be his abode, greeting every future guest that travels to Iraivan Temple from near and far. Aum.
