After my lecture it was stimulating to see twenty+ young people lined up to ask me questions on a range of issues emerging from (& beyond) my speech. Answered over a dozen & rewarded the unlucky ones with a group photo. Thanks Dr FazalGafoor for a great evening! https://t.co/tWAbgkRobV — PolitiTweet.org

Before leaving the Bishop’s home, was happy to plant & water a rose bush in his garden. There’s always something special about planting a seed whose fruit or flowers we may never enjoy ourselves, but which give joy to others for years. https://t.co/3f9CVSnSUb — PolitiTweet.org

Enjoyed a wonderful meeting followed by lunch with Dr. Geevarghese Mar Yulios, Bishop of the Malankara Orthodox Diocese, Kunnamkulam. Such a pleasure to meet such a relaxed & convivial spiritual leader, educated in Germany & fully attuned to contemporary Indian politics. https://t.co/jR5htrYrrY — PolitiTweet.org

Paid homage to Adi Shankara at the ThekkeMadom established by his foremost disciple Padapadmacharya & met with the Swami who presides over the thousand+ years-old shrine. Was deeply impressed by the austere simplicity of the place. https://t.co/Is64fISHOp — PolitiTweet.org

Before leaving I was thrilled to receive from artist VinayLal a framed print of his son Anujath’s painting of Women’s World of Work which had been chosen for the cover of a @UN report on women a couple of years ago. (I had tweeted the news but rendered his name wrongly as Anuja!) https://t.co/GH6ESsgL4W — PolitiTweet.org

Aside from architecture, there are astonishing trees around the 64-acre grounds of the temple, including an ancient banyan & the “Vyasasila” which is said to bless writers if they visit &trace words on the stone surrounding it. Even a Sanjeevini dropped by Hanuman on his flight! https://t.co/CBZKS0t6hD — PolitiTweet.org

Began today with a visit to the Vadakkunathan temple in Thrissur, before which the famed Pooram takes place. It’s a magnificent temple, but no pictures are allowed inside, so one cannot depict its aesthetic beauty, with centuries-old art & multiple shrines to various divinities. https://t.co/HB4h5uMYFw — PolitiTweet.org
