I'm quite impressed with this cousin of mine. They frequently visit the temples as a family and spend quite an amount of their personal time on similar religious pursuits.
They'd come down at the temple town yesterday evening and had left by about 8, this evening, back to Pondicherry after spending almost a full day at the temple. Not wanting to bother us they'd rented an accommodation at the temple premises. Such mental stamina - I'm not even talking about the physical aspect - comes only to a few with a steadfast mind and clarity of purpose. What I'm fascinated with is the children's bend of mind on the issue - Keerthana is in class XII and Madhav, in class X.
The kudos must go to the parents for their fine upbringing.
They'd called on us this afternoon and it was nice to interact with them after what has been a long, long while when we'd gone to meet them, during a Dussehra holiday, when they're at Ahmedabad. It was a fun filled week with them but what I remember even to this day is li'l Madhav crying uncontrollably, as he bade us goodbye at the airport! He' s been a soul mate ever since!
Tailpiece.
Here's wishing that god is with them in all their endeavour!
