    In the south of India, in the holy city of Madurai, the mother goddess Adi-Shakthi, manifested as MeenAkshi. Lord Vishnu, known as ThirumAl (Thiru - Lakshmi, mAl - one who owns..the lord of Lakshmi) is the brother of MeenAkshi. Sadasiva, the all-auspicious Supreme, incarnated as Sundareswara (the most beautiful lord) and won the heart of MeenAkshi. Lord Vishnu conducts the marriage of MeenAkshi with Sundareswara in the holy city of Madurai. A wonderful pastime of Siva, shakthi and Vishnu :-)

    yes!!! i agree with You Siddhartha Prabhu, some of us have no time to read Srila Prabhupada's books but some of us find time even to other books.

    Srila Prabhupada's books are not an ordinary book. For example, when we finish reading Bhagavad Gita or Srimad Bhagavatam we have to repeat again. Because those books are Krishna Himself. Whenever we read new and new realizations come.

    Please try that one Ashwani Kumar Prabhu!
