The first of several Innersearch classes has been published on Youtube. Satguru goes over some Upanishad material and ends with Shiva Sutra discussion.

For the blog today we revisit Satguru in San Diego where a pada puja, inspired talk and dinner took place. The monks give a big Mahalo to the Mahadevan family for opening their home to the traveling monks.

Today we have a few photos from the road. First Satguru landed in San Francisco before arriving in San Diego. Homes were visited for darshan, pada puja and arati. The monks then traveled to London where they will stay for a little over a week.

Satguru and Shanmuganathaswami are off to Europe today, ending the three day respite from the Arizona trip. The final photos came in from the kumbhabhishekam so we begin Satguru's new mission by ending the last.

The Maha Ganapati Temple of Arizona's Maha Rajagopuram Kumbhaabhishekam is underway. Satguru and Yoginathaswami have been busy with ceremony, satsang and outings.

Here are some photos from the road.

Last night, Satguru Bodhinatha Veylanswami and Sannyasin Yoginathaswami caught an outbound flight to Phoenix, Arizona. While there they'll be attending the Kumbha Abhishekam for the Mahaganapati Temple of Arizona.

Today, Satguru Bodhinatha Veylanswami, Sannyasin Shanmuganathaswami and Sannyasin Siddhanathswami returned from their recent journey to the Mainland, USA. They had a short, but full journey, visiting Florida, Washington DC and Maryland.

Natyam Dayanatha and several of our yogis prepared a short pada puja in front of Kadavul Temple to welcome Satguru home. This was followed by an arati to Ganesha, Muruga and Lord Siva Nataraja.

"Lord Siva said: 'Service to the Satguru and his mission is fourfold: service with your own hands, service by wealth or through others, service by spiritual enthusiasm and service by happy feeling. Service done with devotion, according to one's means, has the same merit whether little or much, whether by the rich or by the poor.
With your mind dedicated to selfless service, please the Satguru. The fruit obtained is the same as from great rituals. Such service invites the grace of the Mother of the Universe.
In the service of the guru, either expressed or unexpressed by him, do not be unmindful. Be always in service of the guru, ever in his presence, giving up desire and anger, humble and devoted, lauding in spirit, upright in doing his work.
If service is accompanied by santosha, it brings with it all fulfillment. Sins dissolve away and merit grows by leaps and bounds.'" -- Kularnava Tantra, Chapter 2

Satguru, Shanmuganathaswami and Siddhanathaswami are off to Florida for satsang. See if Satguru is coming to a town near you on our travel page.

After arriving back home on Kauai, we received a series of great photos taken and captioned by Vasaant Krishnan. They tell the story of our visit to the UNESCO World Heritage Orchid Gardens, and we thought all would enjoy them. Aum Namasivaya!
