Trip to Kukke

13-09-2008



After having nice sleep in Dharmastala, we took a bus to reach kukke. By the time we reached it was 5.00 p.m.

Since they follow strict timings over there, we visited the Adi Subrahmanya temple first. It has the 'Hutta', which is worshipped with strong devoution.



After having the darshana, we visited the main temple, Sri Kukke Subrahmanya Temple. The darshana was really good. Everything happened without any difficulties. After the darshana, we watched the sangeeta kacheri in the temple premises. It was a nice experience.It was 8.00, and we left for the dinner. The queue was tooooooooooooooooooooo long. I mean it, but the time taken in each pankti was very less so it was not a long wait.


We had the dinner, and it started drizzling. But the moment we reached the bus stand, it started raining heavily. When I say heavily, i mean it.


Our bus was supposed to be at 10.00. But it was late, so we waited in the bus stand, watching the stala puraana in the TV kept near by. Yeah could not watch it completely because the shop owner used to switch off and re start all the time. Of course, it was his marketing trick.


We boarded the bus at 10.30 and reached Bangalore at 6.00.

We could not believe that we completed the journey in one day and everything went so smoothly. It was a great and nice experience.


Thanks to swapna for initiating the trip and making it memorable.
