Welcome to the Monkey Temple
Where the monkeys do the work
drink from the tap
bask in the sun on the balustrade
happily join the family
check out the feet
and admire selfies
A ritual bath is essential
and after drying off...
pose for a family portrait
we all like to play in the sand
An evening walk… think pink!
A quick trip to America…
It was cold upon our arrival
and soon it snowed
Rinpoche had his eyes checked; all is well
we can see for ourselves
The snow melted in South Orange
and then
It really really snowed!!!
I visited my brother
who taught me Iyengar Yoga
I only spent a moment in America, not long enough to see dear friends and family. My apologies to all; I had to be back in India before the expiry of my visa at the end of March!
I returned to the heat of the south where Krishna waters the thirsty plants
and we try not to move too much
except to fetch water
or play cricket
The trees stand tall
or try to
George has a new grandson, and guess what he’s called...
George!!!
A delegation of Marthoma Syrian Christians presented me with a Tibetan Bible
and the trees still dance delightfully outside my window
I say my prayers
and enjoy Suresh’s momos.
All is well.
Hong Kong
Some serious and others less so
Everyone intent!
and on to Delhi where samsara exhibits itself playfully
Krishna and Radha flirt
and Russian devotees convert
where livin is easy, even in winter
though we wear a coat
and a roof over our head helps
but not essential
and life goes rolling along
with a tea break every now and then
