From Veg Meals On Banana Leaves To Dance Troupe From Alapuzha With Enough Ace

From Veg Meals On Banana Leaves To Dance Troupe From Alapuzha With Enough Ace

The Grand Super Market In South Nada In Guruvayur came handy on different occasions with bananas and cutlets not procured in bulk but in a quantity that won't make one sulk. The staff diligent to the proceedings welcomed visitors and brought the items to be purchased on table with this Guruvayur City not known to host any rebel. From Britannia Treat Croissant to multigrain rusk to samosa to other snacks all were made readily available and discipline maintained something to marvel. Specifically to note was the hoarding of Parking Area Customers but there were no vehicles to be traced as the congenial parking area was not in car race. Car race one sees in a big city knowing fully well the unfolding flummox and nitty-gritty and here in Guruvayur the serpentine traffic much in absentia and this is no trivia. Jovial was the outlook as one stepped out after visiting this Gracious Grand Super Market and We hope it would attain the monthly target. Equally cordial was the invite from Hot Bake And Cool Club hosting dry fruits that the territories in the Middle East Love. 

Veg Meals On Banana Leaves Quite Therapeutic 

As Glimpse of Lord Guruvayur (Guruvayuruppan) was gained on a Tuesday the time was perfect to have grub from Hotel Saravana Bhavan in East Nada where some are familiar with Sanskrit's Pada. Veg meals it all came for Rs 130 same as the one in Tirupati and servings made on banana leaves with ease. Taking food from banana leaves is much healthier and keeps you in robust shape and vegetables served are brought in if not big in small crate. Staff in Saravan Bhavan was gentle and good-natured perhaps learning the ropes from the service rendered in West France's Poitiers. Here it becomes mandatory to note that Hotel Saravana Bhavan across world should engineer moves to serve meals on banana leaves if not possible across globe then at least in India where people have hope. Here people have hope that visits to various religious destinations would be minus hiccups and stay would be long enough to witness no session of usurp. Here PISHARODY SAMAJAM made it apparent the stay would be comfortable courtesy the staff going by the names Mr Ram Chander, Mr Bal Chander, Mr Mani, Mr Diwakar, Mr Shinoj and Madam Sunisha. Every afternoon after taking meals I would visit Coffee Shop (It's Coffee Time) and Mr Faisal and Mr Venugopalan would be attending to customers coming from far distant places that at some point of time would be ruled by Empress. Mr Venugopalan (Nick Name Venu) would engage in conversation every now and then with a query on official dealings in Delhi and my repartee being maintaining blogging tally. On two days visit to Coffee Shop a little after 4 in the morning could not get me the milk and black tea I desired and visit to Devas Soorum outlet could get me the tea if not milk one aspired. 

Visiting Lord Guruvayur (Guruvayuruppan) Temple On Wednesday

Wednesday as well I reached outer precincts of Lord Guruvayur (Guruvayuruppan) Temple just before 6 AM and wait for almost two hours was enough to send me to special queue darshan (each special darshan ticket entry costing Rs 1000) and I was out of temple a little before 8.30 AM. Like in Tirumala there are no noticeable bathrooms here and one has to bear till the time the temple round is not completed and here authorities need to equip the temple area with arrangements where one can go to bathroom and join the queue from the very place he or she left all along maintaining the heft. That decision to join the special entry darshan left me little miffed with plans to visit the temple on Thursday in disarray as temple diary notings I could not do with ease due to intervention of some temple individuals despite no breeze. Having returned to the guest house room I for one decided to have darshan on Thursday from outside as waiting in the general queue for two to three hours would be bothersome as prior to the visit I would invariably take milk and black tea with surroundings by no means looking grum. I can wait in the general queue for more than three hours provided I have not taken milk and black tea and here most ardent devotees of Lord Guruvayur (Guruvayuruppan) would agree. 

Dance Troupe From Alapuzha

In the room not much to do I left for Guruvayur Railway Station with little willingness as I did not want to leave Guruvayur so soon to book a rail ticket (Indian Railways) to Delhi Hazrat Nizamuddin with no thoughts on China's Tianjin. The woman at the counter kind enough to dish out tatkal ticket and her magnanimity was something to praise as you some times come across rail staff in rage. While coming out of station I visited SREE PARTHASARTY TEMPLE (Under Malabar Devaswom Board) from outside and returned to the room having maintained posture upright. Wednesday was the day when the dance troupe from Alapuzha in Kerala State staying in PISHARODY SAMAJAM was to perform at Melpathur Auditorium with having done the rehearsal the previous day. Tuesday was the day when I watched dance performance which was quite mesmerising and on Wednesday having missed the dance performance by the group from Alapuzha I hope to catch on the same in future even if some would have dropped plans to visit Cuba. My best wishes to Alapuzha dance troupe. 

Keep Train Connectivity To Thrissur All Through Day 

Mr Vinod hailing from Bengaluru told me in Coffee Shop on Wednesday that on a monthly rental of Rs 7000 one could get one to two room set in Guruvayur with attached bath and kitchen and here when I could not stay this time beyond five days how could I think of staying for months and this was only possible if invaluable time was spent with little outgo of pence. Last time round I stayed for full Seven Days with visit to Lord Guruvayur (Guruvayuruppan ) Temple three days. This time even on two different days the visit to Lord Guruvayur (Guruvayuruppan) Temple was fascinating and here devotees all year round would keep arriving. Here the need of the hour is to keep Indian Railways train connectivity from Thrissur not just twice all through day as that would give the devotees enough choice. As one came across slew of lottery ticket vendors at every nook and cranny of Guruvayur hope they sail and have enough income proof and roof. If in vicinity of Karrad Road one came across multi level parking, buses with limited stops and flats to let, West Nada had entirely different appearance flanked by MILMA SHOPPE, Minimart, Sweet Palace with Mr Feroze at the counter and hotels going by the names Balakrishna Residency, Murali Lodge, Avanti Inn and SREE VENKATESWARA TOURIST HOME and this is much cherished peace zone.
