Deva Rajan has been working with Sadhaka Tejadevanatha for several months to acquire an anvil for the monastery’s metal working needs. After searching high and low Deva’s son Kailash located a 180lb England Anvil at the local community College in Concord, California.

Over the retreat Sadhaka Tejadevanatha set up the Anvil and began the long process of refinishing it.
