SIVARATHRI 2026 at Ajax -825

              SIVATATHRI -2026 AT AJAX 

This year we were at Ajax in Toronto Canada on the Sivarathri Day and had to do away with our usual practice of  visiting 9 Siva Temples in and around Agasthiarpatty when we were back in India . 

We made this up by doing the KAALA POOJA at home and visiting the PICKERING ARULJOTHI SIVALAYAM . 

Both were very fulfilling in every way and made us to feel at home as if we were back  in India. 

(It pains to say this but in many ways they were better than what we experience back at home )







At home the KAALA POOJA WERE PERFORMED WITH DUE CARE AND DEVOTION. 










OHM SHIVAYA NAMAHA .

 Here i am , a Retired Person nearing the three quarters of the Century Mark  , musing about the many  childhood dreams . There are many things which have caught my fancy as a schoolgoing kid and later on in the teens. It is only fair to say that Some of those Important  Dreams , thanks to the lord above have been realized and and sadly there are parts of the same that  are never going to see the light of the day . The early part of my teens was at a place called Kharapur in W Bengal .Now, dont get me wrong , it was not at the IIT for which the place is  obviously more famous for the World over , but the Railway Colony of which my Father was very much a part. I did my schooling at the Railway Mixed Higher Secondary School there. My fathers previous posting among a lot many other places  was at a place called Chakradharpur in Bihar and my early  schooling was entirely  in the Hindi Medium. The school at Kharagpur though had a sizable Anglo Ind...

         A GOLU WHICH IS  NO LESS                               THAN A DIVINE ART EXHIBITION  We were at Ajax in Canada on Sunday the  28 th  of September 2025 . It was a special day for two reasons . I have always been a Cricket Buff and try to watch all India related matches wherever and in whichever time zone they are played in .  It was the day of the much touted  Title Clash and  the Finals Of THE ASIA CUP CRICKET MATCH between India and Pakistan which was being played at The Dubai International Stadium . The Match was Scheduled to start at 10.30 am  Toronto Local time . There was plenty of  On Field and Off Field  drama and acrimony by the Pakis during their previous  two  league stage Matches which were  won by India handsomely and by a huge margin at that . Both were labelled as one sided encounters by the Pundi...
