Going to Narasimhar temple (Pilgrimage) in my dream
Yesterday I woke up with a wonderful dream experience of visiting a Narasimhar temple that was on a mountain. I kept chanting “Vrittothpulla Vishalaksham” (Mantraraja Pada Stotram) and climbing up this difficult mountain to see a silver Narasimhar. It felt exhilarating to experience a 3D pilgrimage in my dreams. Upon waking up, I was confused, and I called my parents to ask about the meaning of this experience. My mother asked me if I had been thinking a lot about Narasimhar, and, to be honest, at that point, I was still thinking very much about Krishna. I am still kind of immersed in the Vrindavan visit that we did two…

Kerala Trip : An 8 day trip to God’s Own Country
This year we chose to escape to Kerala as the scalding hot Chennai became impossible to bear during summer. We planned to go to the beautiful Alappuzha district, which happens to be my husband’s ancestral place. The backwaters of Alappuzha are renowned for their breathtaking beauty.

It was around 11:30 PM when we reached the resort. We were escorted in a buggy to the reception.…

Darling Darjeeling – A Treasure Hunt
Day 1 – Ghoom Monastery / Batasia Loop / Rock Garden After our exciting trip from Sikkim, we drove back to Darjeeling at around 10 PM. The weather in Darjeeling is similar to Gangtok.

We wanted to leisurely enjoy the first day in Darjeeling after our somewhat crazy travel during the previous day. Our intention to hit Darjeeling is to unwind and enjoy the comforts of the cold weather in a pleasant and naturally scenic place. Darjeeling doesn’t disappoint…

From the Himalayas
The Himalayan Memoir I am very happy to write my first post from the Himalayas. What a great place this is! It has been my dream to visit the Himalayas from a young age. As I kept learning more about the spiritual aspects of this beautiful spot on Earth, I became more and more fascinated by this place. We took this journey to visit Himalayas as a family to experience how life is in the Himalayas and to immerse ourselves in the culture and religious traditions of this region. To say I am awestruck by its beauty is an understatement. I feel blessed to be near such pristine natural beauty,…
