Monday May 21st was a devastating day in my Sister’s family, we had an unthinkable tragedy and I came to know about it in the wee hours of 21st. I really had no idea even how to digest the same, and was just devastated. However, I took shower and did my duty of praying. Had really no energy or even mood to draw the rangoli, so just recited Krishna Stotra 33 times, Shree Krishna Namaha 33 times twice, and Shree Raghavedraya Namaha 33 times twice. Had my flight in the morning, so left for San Francisco.
Tuesday and Wednesday May 22nd and 23rd I had calmed down a little bit, but since I was in a hotel and no access to anything, drew the Rangoli on paper and recited Krishna Stotra 33 times. You can see the images of the Rangoli I drew and also a few others that I drew like the Shankha, Chakra, Gadha, Lakshmi Pada, and Tortoise.
And here is the one I drew today May 23rd.
Since I am flying back home tomorrow in the morning, it will just be reciting Shree Krishna Stotra 33 times. If time permits will try to draw the rangoli as well. Hope you all are doing some activities to make use of this Aadhika Masa.

Hi Meera ,
I have been regularly following of your blog for many years now . Even though I am not able to perform my seva to GOD , this blog keep me motivated and hope that some day I will dedicate my life to Rayaru and his preaching.
Today felt very sad to see you in pain as you have been always an inspiration to me .
I pray to Rayaru to give you and your sister’s family all the energy to get over the tragedy.

I share your sorrow in the devastation that has happened in your sister’s family.While there is no mention of the nature of it,I can surmise that you are grieved immensely and as a result you have not described it. May God give you the strength to bear the devastation is my ardent prayer to Rayaru. K.LAKSHMAN.

Hi Meera,
Keep up the good work about the blogs you are writing. I am always amazed by your work, thinking how are you able to make time for so many things (Praying, Cooking, Work, Blogs and so on).
Today I am writing this comment because, I always wonder one thing regarding the mantras or diagrams what we write on paper for god. After writing mantras or some rangoli on paper dedicating to god, what has to be done with the paper? Means my question here is how to dispose it?
Posted by meeraghu on May 25, 2018 at 9:09 am
I have not yet disposed any, but many say you can out in river.
