Guruvayur Connect; Listening to SEAL - Stand By Me; Watching Al Jazeera Channel beamed from Qatar

Speaking to people in Guruvayur on landline and that largely illustrates they are in pink of health and fine; Listening to SEAL - Stand By Me; Watching Al Jazeera Channel beamed from Qatar

As i speak to  people in Guruvayur located in Kerala State in India i am reminded about my stay for almost a week more than three years ago. It was a time when i visited Chennai, Rameswaram (Lord Ramanathaswamy Temple), Madurai (Meenakshi Amman Temple) and  Kanniyakumari (Goddess Kanniyakumari Temple) before reaching Guruvayur. From Kanniyakumari i took a train that left around 10.30 in the morning and reached Thrissur around eight in the night. From Thrissur i took a late night train, the time taken to reach Guruvayur was a little over 30 minutes.

In Guruvayur i stayed in different tourist homes like Brahmaputra, Aishwarya Tourist Homes. From the city of New Delhi i am in touch with Mr Rama, Mr Jiji, Mr Bose of CA Tower, Mr Gopal Krishnan, Mr Soman of Aishwarya Tourist Home, Mr Vishwanath of Brahmaputra Tourist Home,  Mr Krishna Kumar, Ms Sobha of Rugmini Tourist Home, Mr Nandu, Mr Joshy, Ms Reshma, Ms Seeja, Mr Prajeet and Mr Venkatesh. It was a visit that saw me pay obeisance to Lord Guruvayur on three different occasions.

The stay also gave me an opportunity to visit Chavakkad beach and Elephant Sanctuary, both places not that far from Guruvayur Temple. The phone conversation from Delhi reveals the weather is fine with occasional downpour in Guruvayur.

What To Talk of Pollution, The Town Is Miles Away From It And It Has Stood The Test Of Times.

And The Sky Is Clear, Blue Bastion Takes Away All The Fears
When The Night Is A Pale Shadow Of Day
The Town In A Silence Zone With No Feet Of Clay
And Tons Of Happiness Touch You
You Yearn To Stay Longer
Long Enough To Withstand Any Unfurling Fear

Listening to Stand By Me By SEAL  as well By John Lennon

When The Night Has Come
And The Land is Dark
And The Moon Is The Only Light We Will See
No I Wont' Be Afraid
No I Won't Be Afraid
Just As Long As You Stand By Me
So Darling Darling Stand By Me Oh Stand By Me Oh Stand By Me Stand By Me
Stand By Me

As i watch Al Jazeera Channel beamed from Qatar there is is a UK Brexit Leader speaking from Hartlepool fomenting ignorance about what in politics is the thumb rule. There was another story on Bolivian Leader Mr Evo Morales having put in his papers and the unfolding celebrations on the streets of Bolivia.

Talk to Al Jazeera throws spotlight on can world prevent a nuclear attack? It is Mr Lassino Zerbo , Executive Secretary of CTBTO (Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty Organisation) speaking at length on how many nations that have signed this treaty and how dialogue is the way forward to bring the non complying nations to the drawing board. "We (Nations) need to sacrifice pride to some extent", Mr Lassino Zerbo maintained.

My best wishes to CTBTO and Mr Lassino Zerbo.
My best wishes to Mr Lionel Richie, Ms Celine Dion and Ms Mariah Carey.

My best wishes to Al Jazeera News Channel Staff members and their Family Members across the world.
