Monday morning may not be the most buzzing time in an ashram. That is my observation in some locations I go to. The previous day, Sunday, might do a little more than usual wear and tear on brahmacharis (monks) residing on the premises. At 4:30 AM, present along with myself, is Hansarupa, and my assistant, Kavi, is the priest of the altar. Eventually though, one by one, others appear that makes us family.
Hamsa plays great mridanga and I love to sing, taking the lead on most of the songs. Tha
