Tribute to Saraswathi - Photos
Location: Encinitas, U.S.A.
Saraswathi, thank you for spending these past two weeks with us here in Encinitas. We are so fortunate to have had your strength, steadiness and compassion along with your firm resolve to teach us as you have learned from Guruji. Your presence in the yoga shala is at once powerful and determined but at the same time peaceful, calm, loving. With few words you have inspired us to go beyond our limitations.
We look forward to your next visit. Much love from all of your students here and happy 70th birthday! Thank you also to Sharmilla (Shammi), for supporting your mother during this tour and bringing your own light and wisdom to the yoga room. God bless you both.
Guru Purnima Celebration - Photos
Location: Bondi Beach, Sydney, Australia
Thank you to all who helped make our Guru Pūrṇimā celebration such a memorable evening. The shala was beautifully decorated with rose petals, candles and flower mālās hanging across photos of our “Guruji” Sri K. Pattabhi Jois. During the afternoon Pūjā with Ramachandra, the statue of Ganesh was adorned with fruit and flowers and guests were invited to offer flowers and take sweets/fruit (prasād). The Pūjā was followed by a magical evening of bhajan singing with Sri Prahlada, Carmella and the Bhakti Band.

Vidwan H.V. Nagaraja Rao visited us here in Encinitas and spoke to us with great enthusiasm about the Isha (Ishavasya) & Kena Upanishads. We were also extremely blessed by the presence of Srikanth Sastri, an esteemed priest from the local Vedic Cultural and Spiritual Center of San Diego who had come for the lectures.
