with Sri Ganesh

… Murthy’s team is starting work on the new enclosure, while Krishna’s team is leveling the ground along the new wall and securing the connection to the Orchard fence and, at noon the whole team comes in to do pranam… And this morning Parthy has offered three fresh coconuts from his land, along with a good, solid brass candelabra which he has found buried in the ground of the garden in Sincerity and cleaned thoroughly, without letting me know till it was ready!

Today Sri Ganesh You appear in the act Of a wide and strong embrace, A gathering and almost

A capture, And within The circle of your arms Are lodged The realizations, The nourishing fruits Of union –

With a smiling, happy heart, Rooted in Her White light, You gaze upon Your preys…!

Wondrous Ganesha…!

… In the afternoon Parthy and I do a heavy pruning and cleaning along the new wall…
