February 2022 Chitra Puja
Jai Gurudeva!
Jai Kailasa Parampara!
Today we celebrate our monthly padapuja to Sivaya Subramuniyaswami. This morning, Satguru, the monks and our two taskforcers Mayuran and Chandipati Muttulingam, all gathered in Kadavul Temple for the puja. Yogi Dayanatha and Nirvani Tejadevanatha performed today's abhishekam.
"People speak of the light of understanding. Before the bright light of spiritual perception is experienced, the light of understanding must be laid as a foundation of philosophical training and appreciation learning to understand life, for instance, through action rather than reaction. The purified, integrated mind, so perfected in its own understanding, lives in close communion with the soul radiance so that light becomes the constant experience of the mind. It is this to which the yoga student aspires." - Gurudeva

Aum Nama Sivaya
Thank you Swamis for this Post. The first picture and the explanation brings to mind the Thevaram sung by many while lighting a lamp in a house or temple, thereby removing darkness. Thevaram by Saint Thirunavukarasar in four sentences will suffice for beginner seekers of light! During the month of Maha Sivarathri May Lord Siva bless all of mankind.
“Illaka Vilakku Athu Irul Keddupathu
Solla Vilaku Athu Sothi Ullathu
Pllaka Vilaku Athu Palarum Kaanpathu
Nallaka Vilaku Athu Nama Si Vayave.”
Such is the greatness of Hinduism!
Sivaya Nama Aum
