Yatra 3 - preface

This time, we plan to see Mahalakshmi in Kolhapur, the other 8 Jyothirlingams and Ashta Vinayakas in Maharashtra, Dwaraka in Gujarat, Ayodhya, Naimisharanya, Varanasi and Puri Jagannatha. On Sivarathri, we plan to be ibn Varanasi. We collected the sands from Rameswaram and it will taken to the Visweswara in Varanasi.

In addition, Nirmala's wish is to go to Srisailam again. That we will do first since it would make the three of us visiting all the 12 Jyothirlingams together. The Tungabhadra pusharams begin on Dec 10th or so. We want to have a dip in that river at that time. We plan to meet Nirmala in Kurnool and proceed on our journey from there. This time, we have some wonderful people taking care of our house in our absence.

As usual, our trip began with our driving to Boston area to be with our daughter and family for a few days and fly to Hyderabad from Boston. On the way we visited the Rajarajeswari Temple in Rush, NY briefly. Visit the site at www.srividya.org for details about the Temple.
