First Visit to the Temple
My family went to the temple this afternoon for my daddy's friend Yudistir (Gabriel)'s wife's Hindu baby ceremony. Can't remember what it's called, but it's a puja you can do when the mama is seven months pregnant. I got there and ate upstairs before falling asleep through the whole puja and the aarti. I didn't really see the deities because I slept all the way up until we left and my mama took me out of the sling and put me in the carseat. I had a nice nap, though, listening to my daddy play mridanga while Gabriel Uncle led kirtan. It was a lovely, calm, sparsely-populated event for my first time at the temple. Hopefully next time I'll actually catch a glimpse of the deities. Pictures, forthcoming.
