There are certain temples that invoke the serenity and calmness within you and there are some from where you just want to flee because of the rush and the total lack of civic sense of the people around. Holidays are definitely meant to be experienced leisurely, else the purpose is defeated.Umahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04717377240212152065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2893385805999731640.post-2325699741691678122012-09-04T10:16:32.862-07:002012-09-04T10:16:32.862-07:00Wow thanks!

Am elated that this post could make you want to visit the place :) My grandfather too was a very staunch follower of the kanchi saints .. <br />Talking about leisure, a facilitator of one of the training programs I attended at work once joked about how people end up making holidays even more stressful than working days .. It is sometimes true :)Aarthyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05498369127985472675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2893385805999731640.post-13542534704397820932012-09-04T08:22:38.832-07:002012-09-04T08:22:38.832-07:00Nice post, aarthy.

My grandmas of course revere the kanchi kamakoti saints and I'm glad to note the place has so many positive vibrations...<br />Yes, rushing about from one place to another is no fun! The leisure is the bets part of the holiday and if that cannot be enjoyed then what's the point?Aparnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17348419737425889834noreply@blogger.com
