Guest guest Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 hmmmmmm I think DB is not around. Otherwise I am sure he will post this in the group. I saw this in the local newspaper today. Press Trust of India New Delhi, August 20, 2006 After the crowd turnout at Mumbai's Mahim locality to taste "sweet" water of the Arabian Sea, thousands of people on Sunday night thronged temples across Uttar Pradesh, Gujarat, Haryana and Punjab to watch deities of Goddess Durga and God Shiva claimed to be drinking milk offered to them by devotees. In a rerun of similar incidents claimed to have taken place across the country in 1995, a large number of people queued up outside temples in Mathura and nearby holy cities of Vrindavan and Govardhan in UP, Vadodara in Gujarat and Kurukshetra in Haryana and Ludhiana in Punjab following claims that the deities are taking milk offered to them. "A cup of milk was offered to Durga Ji in Rama Nand Ashram Goverdhan this evening and she was not only pleased but has drank all. It is a good omen and the future of the country is bright," noted saint Mahamandaleshwar Krishna Das Kanchan Maharaj said in Mathura. http://www.hindustantimes.com/news/181_1773493,000600010001.htm Anybody hear abt this?

Guest guest Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 Anyone seeing extra cats hanging around at night, after the devotees have left? Just wondering. Personally I'm very sad about the "sweet water" I'm worried about people poisoning themselves with pollution and thinking they are in the midst of a miracle.

Guest guest Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 Something about sweet water!!! Quote___________ First Letter in the Letters to the Editor section: http://www.hindu.com/2006/08/21/stories/2006082102191004.htm `Sweet' water The media are full of news about seawater turning `sweet' in Mumbai and people rushing to the Mahim beach to collect the sweetened water in cans. I was associated with the construction of Zuari bridge in Goa and Kali bridge in Karnataka. The bridges were located close to the sea. The water was brackish and so our team used to bring water from elsewhere for construction. However between the second half of July and early September, the water used to be sweet and we could use it. The availability of sweet water would entirely depend upon the duration, intensity and total amount of rainfall. Even the appearance of seawater would be different during this time. There is nothing extraordinary in the Mumbai incident. Perhaps no one tasted the seawater during active monsoon earlier.
