"There is in much of the world the belief that life is a burden, a feeling of penitence, that it is good to suffer, good for the soul. In fact, spiritual life is not that way at all. "

Sun Two

March 6, 2009

Sun Two. All are busy and focused on their work. Saravananathaswami gave his kulam report today. He’s been working with Task Forcer Maruthu to get all the paper documents in his office scanned and these will be all filed on our big server here at the Aadheenam. He has also been processing a lot of Master Course student reports and evaluation sheets, which then go to Bodhinatha for review.
