You have included vedantic, puranic, tantrik and buudhist facets of the Goddess. <br /><br />You use some quotes which suggetst that you know sanskrit. Where did you learn sanskrit?Story teller - Krishnadas Dwijahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02125987605935072929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7804148397927127420.post-87874027055276624032010-08-18T16:51:42.639-04:002010-08-18T16:51:42.639-04:00Actually, I don't have any photos of my own, s...Actually, I don't have any photos of my own, since my camera has been out of commission for a while. If you look at the pics on my page, you should be able to see everyone else's albums. Lots of great pics from the SG show!<br /><br />I forget which day it is but I think there is one Sunday a month that PMA has free admission. We should try for that. Hopefully it won't interfere with marching band or college visits!Stargazerleohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16078328515664949975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7804148397927127420.post-17432631178496566402010-08-17T09:41:11.699-04:002010-08-17T09:41:11.699-04:00I can't wait to see your photos from the trip!...I can't wait to see your photos from the trip! Have you posted them anywhere yet?<br /><br />We have to plan a day to visit the Phila Museum, I still haven't been there. Probably not enough time to do that when I come up for the Laurel Hill tour on 9/19, but maybe in October?KaliDurgahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13218716336939570814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7804148397927127420.post-77729138366088702142010-08-17T09:27:19.517-04:002010-08-17T09:27:19.517-04:00No, I didn't see that one.

Admission is free on Thursday evenings from 5-8 so in 3 hours I saw the Indian, Southeast Asian, and Himalayan art exhibit ( I have a pic of me and the huge Buddha), American Modern Art (which has some great classics) and the Sculpture Court.<br /><br />This reminds me that I haven't been to the Phila museum in way too long.Stargazerleohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16078328515664949975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7804148397927127420.post-91179804353352406062010-08-16T20:54:35.666-04:002010-08-16T20:54:35.666-04:00Ah, very cool that you had time to go there while ...Ah, very cool that you had time to go there while at Lolla!
