  Ep. 5 - Shri Stuti  Hello everyone! Welcome back! Now, in this post, probably things will get over as soon as it starts. I don't have much to explain - today, we will look into Shri Stuti - a Sloka written by Swami Desikan, when he encountered a situation similiar to the Kanakadhara stotram. A poor bhramachari boy was seeking money for his marriage and people guided him to Swami Desikan knowing very well he himself did not have money and he will be ashamed when somebody asks him for money. So this boy approached Swami Desikan unknowingly and asked for help. Swami Desikan took him to Perundevi thayar sannidhi in Kanchipuram and recited the Shri Stuti and Mahalakshmi thayar poured her Grace in the form of gold coins and the boy was immensely awestruck and fell at Swami Desikan's feet. I am adding a few lines from the sloka below.  मानातीतप्रथितविभवां मङ्गलं मङ्गलानां वक्षःपीठीं मधुविजयिनॊ भूषयन्तीं स्वकान्त्या । प्रत्यक्षानुश्रविकमहिमप्रार्थनीनां प्रजानां श्रॆयॊमूर्तिं श्...

  Ep. 4 - Kanakadhara Story Hello everyone! Welcome back to the 3rd Season of the Golu Series!  Today, Goddess Lakshmi's days will be starting, and as a special post, I will post the story of Kanakadhara Stotram. So, we all know Adi Shankara don't we? So once upon a time, when He was a young Boy, He was doing biksha vandanam down the streets (sanyasis had to do that). He stopped by an poor woman's hut. She had nothing but a small amla.  She knew she had to give at least something, so she gave away the amla.  Adi Shankara noticed this and recited a sloka called the Kanakadhara Stotram (He was the one who composed it). As He recited, Maha Lakshmi was moved by Adi Shankara's grace and Bhakthi towards God. Lakshmi, as a result blessed the poor lady with a downpour of gold (She made her rich). So, Lakshmi will shower those who recite the Kanakadhara Stotram with Her blessings. So that's all! And that's it for this episode! Tune in tomorrow for more Golu Episodes! Bye...

  Ep. 2 - Gajendra Moksham  Hello everyone! Welcome back to Golu Season 3! Today I will be narrating (writing) the Gajendra Moksham story. It is a story about and elephant and a crocodile. Once upon a time, there lived an elephant named Gajendra. One day, Gajendra went to a nearby lake to pick a special lotus for God Narayana. But unfortunately, there was a crocodile who lived there. He was angry because Gajendra had entered the lake without the crocodile's permission. After all, the lake did belong to the crocodile. Frustrated, the crocodile bit Gajendra's leg. Gajendra cried for Narayana. This is when Narayana came in Garuda Vahanam. It is also when Garuda came into the knowing.  After Narayana arrived, he chopped off the crocodile's head with his Chakram.  The moral is: God will always be there to help you if you try to serve him with Bhakthi. Hope you enjoyed the story! And before we tune out, let's see what's the special Kolam of today: Wow! That is so beautifu...

To zoom, just do this: As you see, the doll in the pink dress is just for a smidge of beauty. And next to her - the "Theru". It is called a Chariot in English.

  Once upon a time, there lived a girl called Fluty. Fluty lived in a village. Fluty loved music, but the problem was, she never knew how to make some. All the music classes she went to did not teach proper music; they only taught her the basics of music, and after that, Fluty will be kicked out for some fake reason. Fluty was upset about this. However and how much ever she tried, it won't work. One day, Fluty passed by a stall for musical instruments. She seemed to have enough money, so she stopped to buy.  Fluty loved the way the Flute sung, so she purchased one for ₹100.  Fluty put the flute close to her lips and blew. A shreiky, squeaky noise was made. A child with an icecream dropped it in fright. But Fluty seemed to like it. It had been painted with bright yellow, and there seemed to be a cute mouse's face painted on the bottom of the flute.  Everyday, Fluty sat on the bench by the park and spent at least an hour playing on the flute. But all the children seeme...

  Hello! Welcome back! My blog has been a bit boring lately, hasn't it? So that's why I thought of spicing things up a bit with a new PRANK ! Are you ready? Now let's get pranking! Things you'll need: Paint (red and blue) Coloured taps (cold - blue and hot - red) Paint Brush Ta-da! These are the things you'll need.  But you need one more thing! A person! A person to prank, of course. But make sure you do this prank before the person takes a bath! Steps: 1. Take the paints and paint brush over to the bathroom where the 2 taps (cold - blue and hot - red) are. 2. Next, make sure the cold side is coloured blue and the hot side is coloured red. After checking, switch the colours (cold - red and hot - blue) by painting over the taps. 3. Then, pretend you have been doing nothing and wait for the person to enter the bathroom for a nice shower. Result: The person will be shivering with coldness! He must've tried opening the red side, but turns out, it's cold! ( not t...

  A soothing melody it sings, Inside our ears it rings. It is the one which bring us coolness, And especially the way it maintains freshness. Air is all around us, It wears an invisibility cloak around. But it likes to touch and stroke our skin, It was the time of apes when it was found. It is the one which shakes the trees, It is the one which makes sweating seize. It whips through our hair, leaving it to fly, Oh my, and it is quite sly. It scatters our papers all around, Bound to play the game, I suppose. It's cold and hot, cool and warm, The apes are the ones who proposed. Air is everywhere, Near my eyes, nose, arms, knee We can love a ir! Air is life, it makes me feel free.

  Days are beautiful, Beautiful indeed. But if rain occurs, Who will want to heed? You can play freely down the trickling pearls! Instead of listen to forbidding orders. It's okay if you get wet, Along with your eager pet. The rain falls down like little Pearls, Trickling down the window pane. But if you're forbidden from playing in the rain, Really, the person who said so is insane! Weather won't repeat, not the best one, So make sure to have fun. Little Pearls are not a big harm, They are natural, so where is the harm? Rain is God's gift, A creation by Him. If He created it, Why would He want to poison just it? Cold Pearls He will send, The pearls are eager to get time spent! Shimmering, glimmering, pearls they are, They fall from Heaven, they come from far! So, to the Rain lovers, I'm telling you all, Do not listen to the forbidding orders at all! It is He who sent it, so no fear, He is the one who hold its gears!
