“The word love describes the free-flowing interchange of spiritual energy between people, between people and their things, between people and God and the Gods. Our scriptures clearly tell us that “Siva is love, and love is Siva.” Therefore, our free-flowing love, or bhakti, is our own Sivaness in manifestation. Expressing this love is a profoundly auspicious and beginning form of living with Siva that is complete, in and of itself.”

Raj and Jia are from Fremont, California. Jia has only been in the United States for about 4 months now, originally from Mumbai. Both enjoyed the tour of the property, worshipping at the temple and picking rudraksha beads from the forest.




Our unusual plant is taking off. It seems to be growing 6 inches a day… Could it be from another planet?




From the top….at this rate it could take over the whole world! No, actually the final flower is only 3 feet in diameter. We won’t know for sure until he finishes exploding…. 😉
