Nrusimha Swamys Gudarai Vahanam and the Miracle....

Since i am in chennai, i happened to go and see the Gudarai vahanam yesterday.
I am a temple freak... and also i am a shripadham at Sri sowmya Damodhara Perumal Koil in villivakkam... i have also been in a many of the bhrama utsavams that had happened in my temple, but this was the first time i saw the whole community or as the matter of fact almost more than half of the triplicane people participating...

By the time we started from here, it was 8.30 pm and we reached there by 9.00, the perumal had come out of the mandapam only then... so i started ma job. chanting slokas and clicking fotos.....

But i was surprised to see that the streets were filed with people on either side and lot of gals putting kolam and everybody there were very active.. it really wasnt like a night except for the darkness...

Adiyen was gifted with seeing all this yesterday.. just wanted to share some pics with u all.,,,.....

More important thing, yesterday we started from there to my home around 11.pm and on the way it started raining so heavily that we were not even able to drive back.. One stage when were driving we were pushed by the strong wind.. and the streets were flooded with water... All the streets in chennai were dark and deserted... It was totally scary... and in one stretch we were supposed to take a route which would be dark even if it is not raining and which would always be deserted.. without knowingly i took that route... i was only able to hear som oshhhhhhhh sound.. we were helpless, and the water was till the headlight....

Without any clue and not able to turn back we started chanting "Ugram Veeram MahaVishnum" and we were calling the ultimate Nrusimha for rescue.. i really was not able to see the road but some how we cleared that road and the worst thing was we had to cross a Cremation Ground, with great difficulties and the water in the road hitting our face and almost submerging in the water we crossed even that.. and soon we were to the safer place.. ma bike which was running slowed down and stopped... oh my god what a miracle.. i thought it should have stopped even before kilpauk, but stopped near ICF.....

soon we were pushing the bike and walking, we didnt have chappals which made the situation worse, where in we were not able to see whats there in the road as the streets were flooded,,,,, and the moment we crossed a transformer, it started emitting some sparks and we were literally about to cry for help.. suddenly from the darkness we saw a very small light.. an auto was coming.. the auto crossed us and we were just continuing to push the bike as it would take only 10 minutes for us to reach home.. The Auto man stopped and he asked if we want some help..... we said we have the bike and we asked if he can tow the bike and he said he cant as the roads were worse.. but then i told i can sit in the bike and hold the corssbar in auto. he said ok.....

Then the next journey began... i asked my brother to sit in the auto and i was holding the bar in the auto and we started nearing the place slowly and slowly like a streamer in the ocean.. to our surprise the auto stopped near our temple.. damodhara temple.... it was like saying u have to be here with me for some more time.... and finally afte few minutes the auto started.... and we were about to reach..... i slipped on the road but didnot fall as the auto took ma weight and i balanced on the auto...... but continued again,,,, and finally reached ma home..

after thanking the auto man and asking him how much he wants... he said i dont want anything... and he told me i was coming to this place only so no issues... finally before leaving i thanked him and asked him what his name was... He said with a small smile "Narasimhan", tears started rolling down my ears......

Hail Nrusimha always and you will be saved.....

Ugram Veeram Maha vishnum.........

Ma Experience in MOA

It was yesterday that i went to mall of america.... they i mean the People in US say that its the second largest mall in

america.... but may be i think its something smaller than spencers in chennai... This is just ma assumption because may be i

have not seen the mall completely.... may be.. Jus leaving this apart.. lemee start with ma experiences there..

It was around 11.45 we started from candlewood suites,,,,....
And ma mentor Mr.Kaarthick had got his car and all of us packed inside the tiny corolla.... but the thing is i was lucky to

be bulky.. i was given the front seat...... so i was bit comfortable.... but all the other four people were occupying the

rear seat.... So sorry to all of them....

Finally we landed up in the MOA after a short drive... we put the car in the 6th level i think the number was 15...

We entered the mall through the side entrance thro a shop selling bags and suitcases.. wow those travel stufs were

amazing.................

then finally we went to the center of the mall....

there we were just waiting for a few minutes seeing the rides that were there in the mall, soon karthick came with a bag of

choclates.. i wonder those where not choclates but was something like jelly.. in Tamil nambo athu bashaila sollanumna..

Chakkara Mittai......
It was tasting good.... I just had one....... i usually dont take stuffs like this in large numbers...

Then we went on searching for a restaurant to have our lunch....

After going to a few places we finally decided that we go to a food court instead of going to the restaurant...
as we reached the court.. we saw lots of fast food kind of shops... panda express, burger king,.. to name a few....

As we found a place.. me mr Shyam Zingade aka. Bhaiyya.. i call him like that... and nazeer went in search of the right food

accompanied by kaarthick....

i was given a small induction on how to select the right food by kaarthick... the induction took place in front of panda

express...
i got some basic terminologies like course, entree(Main dish),......

finally after browsing throu some of the menus we finally landed on a tokyo based cusine where i took one entree with a rice

and a small portion of noodles....

Wow the chicken there was tempting and pulling me... i have never seen a chicken like tat...
wow wat a great (master) Piece it was.........

Finally after having bought this we went and sat the next team was agai taken.. they came up with mexican varites of

vegetarian.. by the time they came i started ma journey for french fries,,,,, finally got two king sizes........

after eating.... those good people gave me some more mexican varities to taste..
They are really good sisters(Shalini and preeti) of mine,,, so caring they gave some of thier mexican varities what they had

got.... i felt i jus missed only ma mom and not ma sister in the trip as i have two caring people here with me....

Finally after eating... we started going thro the mall.....and we started going inside some shops.... i saw a flag shop where

ma bhaiyya got a number plate,,,, thats when i heard that there are few people like bhaiyya having a hobby of collecting

number plates.....Wow Great hobby..... isnt it??

After which we went into a kind of jwell shop.........

I was like seeing a ferrari which was kept for a display/..... wow wat a car is that ferrari...... i jus thought may be once

i should drive a ferrari.......

after that i went to a music store and got some dvds..
Saving Private ryan
Airforce one...

then we went down to many other shops.... finally i was pestering kaarthick to take me to the rides... i was desperate that i

should go for it....

Finally me and kaarthick went and got the tickets(it was jus this many points.. and it will be reducing as and when we take

rides..) the others were away..... so we went to the first ride... some thing like a cup which goes bersek in the track...

we waited for a long time in the queue.. we just had one pass and i saw in the rules that one pass for one person..
karthick was soo good that he said.. nee maatum poo.. i was not willing to go alone without him..... so i called bhaiyya and

requested him to get a ticket... but kaarthick said no.... finally i was praying that it should get accepted and the person

there took the pass for both of us also.....

as we sat in the cup i was struggling to make both ends meet... i mean to put up ma seat belts as it was small.. finally...

the lady came and pulled it and i found it was big but i didnt know how to use that..... learnt....... a lesson...

the ride started,,,,, i started laughing when the ride started and i was keep on laughing till the end.........

so we came down.. the people here went for the coffee shop and i was waiting for another ride...
thats where the tragedy happened.....
i sat in the ride... and to my surprise the belt didnt get locked for me... i mean a vaccum kind of belt..
the person there tried locking it by making me sit in another place also.. but it didnt happen....

finally i had to come down,,,,,
the only thing wat happend was i wasted ma peoples time,,,,

but my god..... they were so kind.. they didnt even say anything,,,, i havent seen anybody like them,..... not only that..

they also said that i can go for some other rides//// in the mean time they will see some places and come.... but i didnt

go....finally they made me go... i didnt want to..... finally i did one good thing i dropped ma points in the charity box....
and i ran like a child going towards his mom.... i joined them.... then we kept going around shops...we went to a book shop..

left two of them there and then.... we wanted to go and see underwater world... we came back without seeing bcos werent sure

of how much time will it take,,,,,, and finally went into the book store and got a book about Spying and spies....

came back and finally steped out of the mall to car... came to indian stores got things and then to a juice shop and came

back home.. i mean room and had a gala time with ma two brothers.... Bhaiyya and Bhaiyya..... nazeer bhai..

ma sisters were too tired even to speak.. they went,,,,,,,

Thanks Guys ( ma brothers and sisters Here with me onsite) for making me happy for the whole day...
Mainly bcos i was given a feeling of staying in HOME.......
a new home(a kind of family is wat i meant... the difference between a house and a home)..
Thanks Akkas and annas and Nazeer Bhai.... and to all the incidents and people in MOA that we happened to experience in a

group and be happy over it........

THANKS A TONNNNNN.... for making me ready even for another onsite travel provided i come here with the same team......
Another Good Expirence awaits me........ in ma life if chances and luck are there.......

HOME SICK HARISH..................!

After being realized that i am not fit to be here...... i have become home sick..........
yes i am missing ma mom....
If i had some similar problems in home i will simply go and lie down in her lap and finally will get a solution for it......
Her hands would have been going around ma head making me feel ease and it would have released all ma tension and pressures........... over my head.....

I would have taken the food which she will feed me in my mouth......
It would have been like a tablet for me to overcome ma mental illness.....
But her hands weren't there to feed me as well as to make me feel easy........

Amma i missed u so much here yesterday and iam still missing uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu....

After all i may be big physically, doing many thins wat others do... enjoying the pleasures of things around,,, working or taking classes........... but mentally i am always ur baby.. the baby which will cry even before its feels that ma mom is not here.....

Missing u a lottttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt.....

but finally compensated with one saree what i got from india.....
Ma moms saree...
Jus i was holding it tight yesterday nite.....
Finally felt like sleeping on ma moms lap...
which was the only thing which gave me some energy to start for the work today.......
Missing u amma..........
