The readership of this blog has reached a all new high this week. I take this opportunity to thank all readers. As A.R. Rahman often says all praises go to the Almighthy, we are only but a tool in his hands.
In bringing us together if it appears that Agathiyar is teaching others, I came to find out yesterday while speaking to Mahindren the truth of the matter that is in actuality the teachings are for me. Others are just props. In interacting with them there is a teaching for me. I am supposed to continue sailing the seas after picking up these experiences. I am not supposed to pick up these passengers. It shall bring the vessel to sink under their weight. I shall heed this sound advice henceforth.
While having breakfast this morning with the family at a food stall an armless man walked up to us selling some goods for a living. Addressing himself as a Shiv Adiyaar he told me that as it was Shivarathri he would love to spend the day at a Shiva temple but as he needs to feed his family he was forced to make the daily rounds. This came as a surprise message to me.
I plan to go ahead with the family conducting the Homam to commemorate and most importantly keep us awake throughout the night as today is the night for Lord Shiva, Shivarathri, if he wills.
