Hay mate, whatever the situation you get to learn new things ....right??? Dashain is right on the corner and hope you go to temple but remember......... -Two types of prasad will be available - Normal Prasad & Diet Prasad. -Panchamrut will be of 4 types: Whole milk, 2% milk, Skimmed milk and fat-free milk. Same for yogurt. -You would no more go around the temple from left to right. This is America and everything here is from right to left. -The pandit will not ask for your name before Pooja anymore. Your social security number will do. Palmtops will be used to read mantras instead of books. -No more Aaratis due to fire hazard. Only flashlights will be used. During flashlight-tee (aar-tee), soft copies of lord are on sale for $1 per image. -You won't leave money in the thali anymore! When you get the flashlight-tee, you should swipe your visa card on the scanner attached to it. -All bhaktas will have to use head phones to hear "GONG" of the BR bell to prevent noise pollution. The temple would re-cycle the flowers used everyday to protect the environment. -Sponsors of poojas will be allowed to display a 1.5"x 5" banner on the temple website.
