Day before yesterday, September 1, 2011, I lead the Ganesha Chaturthi prayers at the Andaman Narayanan temple site. The temple, through the effort of Mr. Anathakrishnan Samee, a vice-president of the foundation in charge of the temple, had acquired a beautiful 4 feet granite Ganesha deity last year. Usually the temple invites temple priests from Malaysia to conduct its celebrations. However Ganesha Chaturthi being an all-Hindu festival, where temples of all denominations celebrate grandly, left no priest available for the yet to be manifested temple in green hills of Kapong, Thailand. I took the opportunity to offer to lead the prayers. It has been sometime since I conducted a puja in a temple, the last time was almost a decade ago while I was in the my guru's monastery in Kauai, Hawaii.

God created this universe and all the forces that govern its existence. These forces are all evolved from God’s five powers of Creation, Preservation, Dissolution, Revealing Grace and Obscuring Grace. Many of the laws that govern the physical universe have been discovered by science. Gravity, momentum, thermodynamics are some of them. The natural physical laws of the universe allow us to live our lives as we do. Gravity keeps us from floating out to space, light allows us to see and heat gives us energy. However scientist will still admit that there is yet much mystery in the universe. Click here to continue reading this Hindu Philosophy Chapter on the Karma and other Laws of Life.
Life Positive Forum: Time Matters (July - August 2011)
Time is Money, Part Two: That time is money is not a natural phenomenon but a man made condition. I believe this because we can live perfectly well without it. All we need to do is to learn from people who live off their natural surroundings. Is that not true? After all even today in this so called modern and civilized age there are people who still live in jungles, deserts, by coasts, on mountains and all manner of natural surroundings and do not need money to live full and fulfilling lives.
