NAMASKARAMS TO US INDIANS
Sir/Madam, It is good to learn that a Nama Sankeertana Mela and a Sahasra Suvasini Puja Mela is being organised in the US. It would be better if the Children of the age group 5-16 are also associated in this Mela, and they are each given a small note book to write the names of Sri Rama (One lakh times each ) and submit at the time of this Mela or at some other suitable time later to a congregation like this. Such a step will help make our children, our tradition-oriented. They all have to be encouraged to wear our traditional dresses IN PUBLIC, with kum kum etc. The elders also should develop the habit of wearing our traditional dresses and caste marks, on such occasions. This way, our culture will be sustained. S.Chidambaresa Iyer. 29 March 2014. Phone: 91-44-26214105 or 91-9500010065.
