Guest guest Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 Karthika Deepotsava in Mysore Ashrama on 24th November 2008 Pujya Bala Swamiji visited the coveted " Gosai Ghat " - a spot on Kaveri river near Sri Rangapatna town for a early morning river bath. About 50 devotees accompanied to the river bath and were Blessed. In the afternoon, Bala Swamiji visited the farm of Sheshadri and witnessed " Dhatri Havana " In a brief message he said that Dhatri Havana was our respect to Mother Earth - Dharti. In the evening, being the last monday of the important and Shiva-Sacred Kartheeka month, Bala Swamiji performed Abhisheka to the Ekadasha Shiva Lingas in the Venkateswara temple. After arati to the Sachchidanandeswara Shivalinga in prayer hall, Bala Swamiji arrived at the Poundareeka Ranga Sthala. Here, in the sprawling grounds, thousands of small oil lamps had been placed in the form of a giant Shiva Linga with the SGS mark in the middle. Bala Swamiji lit the central lamp and devotees lit all other lamps. It was a golden glow to behold and feel the energy of Shiva. watch the photos on PHOTOS OF KARTHIKA DEEPA UTSAVA <http://gallery.me.com/dattapeetham#100130> -- Music washes away from the soul the " Dust " called everyday life Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
