Thirumala visit

Usha and myself had been to Thiruppathi last week, from 10th to 12th March, to be precise.  I am visiting the place after more than 20 years and the place has changed very much. The only thing that hasn't changed is the crowd to see the Lord. ( for a few seconds)!!!!.

I do remember my last vivit with Gunasekaran there. The occasion was the POONAL ceremony for Iyer's son Shashank. I remember vividly the hospitality and the warmth with which I was welcomed. I had along chat with Iyer's Dad and also his brother.

I also remember Shashank leaving off his fond eating item after his upanayanam. I saw his grand father teaching him how to do "Sandyavandan". That day I also remembered how I taught my son how to do Sandhy, I even translated  them into English and gave him, as his 2nd language was Hindi.
