Grand central station hotel has been our headquarters during our stay in Bhubaneshwar. Yesterday we had a full twelve hour excursion to the Hirapur 64 Yogini Temple and to Puri. It was a fabulous day. We spent several hours at the temple fully enjoying the company of Pratibha Jena Singh, her mother Kumudini, and Parvati(Melissa),of the 63 yoginis plus the 9 guardians of the temple. A special Durga puja was performed for us 5 in front of Durga Yogini by a young pujari. He asked us to purchase the sari wrapped around Durga but we didn't - maybe tomorrow... YES we are returning to Hirapur on Christmas day to enjoy a dance festival taking place at the yogini temple. We shall be thinking of our families, loved ones and friends. MERRY Christmas eve, Merry Christmas to you all. Much Love and Light...as our days get longer.
Love, Assunta (Usha)
