I bit my tongue as long as I could but there came a point I had to blurt out "we can delegate tasks but not responsibility". 😒

The "nawagraha kindi" in #Udupi Krishna Matha is one of the more famous windows in #India.
1. Visitors see the idol of Krishna through one of 9 holes in the window.
2. Cameras can see well from a distance through one of the holes.
3. If given enough time, the eyes can get a good view, but visitors usually don't get that much time (only 3-5 secs/visitor).
The full presentation corresponding to the illustrations in this post:

How much household stuff can you move across 8 states, 1600+ miles, in a Chevy Sonic? 🚗
A lot as my wife and I established in Nov. 2020 at the height of COVID. 🗓️ #throwback
Anyway, sad to say goodbye to that car today. 🎁 #donation

Closeup of a part of a framed picture (of the presentation seen at the link). I love how the rose looks here. Imagine how much better it would have looked up close, in person. 🌹
The gold-clad idols are: Krishna subduing Kaalinga the serpent; Yoga Narasimha.

A political party in Tamil Nadu #India promised brides 8gms 22-Karat gold and a silk saree. It also promised an AI ministry, AI university, and AI city. And a whole lot more.
That party is creaming all others in the ongoing #elections.
Apparently #bribes work.

If Trump played in the MLB, he'd hit 486 HRs *every season*. All of them grand slam and in the river.
His pitching line would be: ꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘꓘ.
Clemens, Ohtani, Judge would be his flunkies and brawl to hold up his spittoon.

"Samudra Mathana" scene from #Hindu lore. In the foreground is "Koorma" (turtle, Wishnu's 2nd incarnation) carrying the "Meru" mountain on his back as gods and demons tug on "Shesha" the serpent to churn the "Indoo" ocean for "amrita" (elixir). #ama
This portrait hangs at Adamaru Matha, #Udupi #India. Its odd dimension and narrow location made it hard to photograph, but several tries and some digital lifting produced decent result, I think. (Shot on Feb. 21, 2025)
PS: This Friday was (is) "Koorma Jayanthi", the birthday of Koorma.

Narasimha is the fourth incarnation of the #Hindu god Wishnu. For reasons, rage is a key trait of Narasimha, especially early in the incarnation. #trivia
Yesterday (Thursday) was "Narasimha Jayanthi", the birthday of Narasimha. The occasion is observed with pomp in Waisnavite locations across #India.
I of course attended the Narasimha Jayanthi festivities in #Udupi. Of the many people I encountered, two were rather rude and directed some anger at me, which I thought I didn't deserve. Still, I handled one of them right, which is by ignoring them; but I think I responded a wee bit in kind to the second. 😳
Needless to say, those two interactions left a bitter taste in me, but I later consoled myself that maybe it was just that Narasimha cast his shadow on some people that day, what with him having just been born. 😀
PS: Anyway, enjoy this presentation of Udupi Krishna on the special day:

What ICE's racial profiling looks like.
This is not supposed to happen in USA, but SCOTUS says it's OK. 🤷♂️
