Guest guest Posted October 22, 2005 Report Share Posted October 22, 2005 Namaste, To Friends in Australia and New Zealand ======================================= Through the bhakti and kind sponsorship of many devotees, the Shri Shiva Vishnu Temple in Carrum Downs, Victoria, Australia has obtained Australia's first Giant Mala in 5 mukhi with 22 carat gold caps. The giant mala consists of 108 beads. Each bead is the size of an Amla fruit (mentioned in Scriptures such as the Shiva Purana to be most auspicious). Upon its arrival in Australia, the energies were very powerful. All persons who handled it, felt great states of peace and bliss. This Auspicious Mala was installed on the giant Shiva Lingam in the Temple's inner sanctum by priests during a wonderful ceremony on 16th October 2005 in the evening. Friends in Australia and New Zealand who have not seen this mala and who may wish to see it one day, can visit: Shri Shiva-Vishnu Temple 52 Boundary Road, Carrum Downs, Victoria, Australia. Telephone: (03) 9782-0878 ** Any questions or further info required about Kantha Malas and giant malas, you are welcome to write me or post your message on this group. ********* Om HariHara Om Simone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 22, 2005 Report Share Posted October 22, 2005 The latest issue of the magazine NAMARUPA has an interview with photos of Hatha Yoga Gurus B.K.S. Iyengar and P. Jois. Shree Jois was shown wearing a rudraksha mala set in beautiful gold caps and links, over a sleeveless undershirt; Shree Iyengar wore what looks like a navaratna mala over a plain kurta. These venerable sages are well into their eighties, and still going strong! Rudraksha malas set in gold are very attractive (and undoubtedly very EXPENSIVE!). -- Len/ Kalipadma --- Simone <syzenith wrote: > Namaste, > > To Friends in Australia and New Zealand > ======================================= > > Through the bhakti and kind sponsorship of many > devotees, the Shri > Shiva Vishnu Temple in Carrum Downs, Victoria, > Australia has > obtained Australia's first Giant Mala in 5 mukhi > with 22 carat gold > caps. > > The giant mala consists of 108 beads.
