Wailua Falls After the Storm
Wailua Falls, our most popular tourist spot, after the storm. If you look at the river banks near the end of the clip, the water was perhaps ten feet higher in the last few days! The flow this day was about 4,000 cubic feet per second; earlier it was over 20,000–before the government river measuring gauge broke!

Auspicious Grace of the Guru
Title: Auspicious Grace of the Guru
Each month the moon moves into the Chitra Nakshatra and we observe the sacred Guru puja. It is always a profound and touching ceremony as the other worldly grace of Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami, our beloved Gurudeva, pours forth as we worship his holy paduka/sandals. The magical mystery of "The Holy Feet" -- the place where the Divine touches earth -- is an ever alive and powerful experience.
Thondunathan Visits Sri Lanka Orphanages
Greetings,
I just came back from visiting the Batticaloa Yogaswami Girls Home and two other boys homes there. It was heart warming to see the growth of the children from my last visit and also the development of these institutions. The Yogaswami Girl's Home is in fact attracting volunteers. In our girls home there were two teachers from England staying there for a month and teaching english. I also attended few public events. My sincere thanks to those who support these institutions. Enclosing are some photos for you to enjoy.
Aum Shanthi,
Rishi Thondunathan
