Jul 28, 2026: Krishna with churning stick, with hand on waist.
ಕಟಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ಕರವಿಟ್ಟ ಕಡೆಗೋಲು ಕೃಷ್ಣ
katiyalli karawitta kadegoalu krishna*Udupi Krishna always holds a churning stick in right hand, though it looks like he holds a staff because the stick's head (the churning end) is relatively small and is often obscured.

Stopped at a storefront to stay out of rain and spotted this beautiful home across from the store. 🏠
Love the intense blue, the contrasting brown trims, and the falling rain drops. 💦

Had the best seat to view the entire 90 mins of the annual ritual bathing of the idols at Kaniyooru Matha #Udupi #India. I chose not to take my own pictures during the ritual so I can be there fully in the moment. I did take some pictures after 👇.
The pictures here are from the matha, just to give an idea.

I found this #painting today at Krishna Matha #Udupi. Someone (most likely the artist themselves) left it outside the Swamiji's room as their offering.

RE: https://mastodon.social/@nityakrishna/116912392589803004
A #blessed Monday evening in #Udupi:
Entered Kaniyooru Matha just as the Swamiji was handing out flowers after the evening service: got two nice roses and two strings of the most fragrant jasmine. Also got a big ball of "prasaada" (they make only two balls). 🙇♂️
Then saw this glorious presentation of Krishna. And ran into a friend who gave us some goodies he had set aside for us from the lunch menu. 🙇♂️🙇♂️

An electric fan in interesting colors bolted to a nearly 300-year old wooden ceiling (recently polished). Check out that handcrafted woodwork.

My wife and I went to a "Yakshagaana" #play today in #Udupi #India. It was only the second play we've ever sat through fully (our first was just last week).
I've so much to say about the experience but don't know where to begin, except say it was mind blowing and wish all #theater was this masterful.
🤯😊🙇♂️

Came across this beautiful portrait yesterday in the halls of Adamaru Matha, #Udupi #India.
The picture shows a presentation of the idol of Waradharaaja ("king among wish granters") consecrated in Kanchi, #Tamilnadu.
PS: An interesting tidbit about that Kanchi temple 👇

Happened on these cleaned pots and pans today at the "chauki" kitchen (where they prepare the offerings) in #Udupi Krishna Matha. Some of the pots, especially the copper ones, are decades old. 🍯

RE: https://mastodon.social/@nityakrishna/116872384776513164
Reached #Udupi #India yesterday, where I'm most content these days. A welcome breakfast from a local friend, then caught a "yakshagaana" play.
Today saw this presentation of Krishna and had 1-1 with two swamijis. Also met many people who've accepted me as their own. Even picked up some goodies. ☺️😋
Like I said, #content. 🙇♂️

A super closeup of yoga narasimha of Kaniyooru Matha, Udupi. Not my picture.
BTW presently only nine people in this world are allowed to even touch this idol. (There'll ever be at most 16 at any given time.) That's a truly exclusive and privileged group but also one with a lot of responsibility. #ama

Today is International Yoga Day. Apropos, a picture of 800+ years old idol of "yoga narasimha" of Kaniyooru Matha, Udupi; the gold cladding is recent. The idol on its right is also yoga narasimha but a few decades newer. On the left is Krishna; age unknown but old.
I love the detail of the crowns and other ornaments, as well as that of the silver arch behind the idols. And of course the elegance of the simple decoration.
Picture from Jun. 8, 2026. **Not my picture.**
