The Lambodara Kulam shared their news today. The pitham (base) on which the our giant sphatika Sivalingam will be worshiped is on its way to completion. It is made of panchaloka, a sacred mixture of five metals described in ancient scriptures. Many stones are also on the move and will be shipped to Kaua’i soon.

Last retreat we mailed hundreds of this month’s Iraivan Temple newsletter to all generous souls who are supporting its construction. Take a close look at yours when it arrives: our monks created a brand new design!

Yogi Jivanandanatha performed today’s homa.
