Sarraki in Bengaluru South is home to hidden heritage gems—like a partly visible inscription (likely from Veera Ballala III) embedded in the Anjaneya temple wall, and another behind Rajashekar Hospital. Revival Heritage NGO has been working steadily to highlight these treasures.…
Veera Gallu (hero stone) of King Sarangadara Raya, after whom Sarakki is named, lies neglected in the park next to Shri Shivalingeshwara Swamy Temple near Sarakki Flower Market. It urgently needs conservation. @Nishkama_Karma1 @GemsOFINDOLOGY @swamin400

It amazes me to see such poetic talent at that age. May be, the poetic mode of experiencing the world, akin to that of a child, is more natural to us. It is holistic and allows an experience to seep in in its entirety. In that experiential moment, every aspect of the experience
Was delighted to preside over a poetry meet at AtmASrama, Bangalore, organized by राघवेन्द्राचार्य राचुरी महाभाग with young poets - अन्तरात्मा, अनन्त, शुभाङ्ग, लक्ष्मीनारायण, सुधर्मा, and पृथु reading out their poems. Have been seeing some very young Sanskrit poets these days. +
