This is where the Gods will live

I wasn’t just complaining that I didn’t have deities, oh no. I’ve actually prepared a place for Their Lordships to reside. It’s nothing fancy, unfortunately, but it’s what I’ve got.

1

As for theme, I don’t really have one, per se. I think that will come about when They arrive. It’s Gaura-nitai, They bring the style, baby!

2

Let me just say that carpeting does nothing for a temple room. I would like hardwood floors, please. Or at least that fake wood laminate stuff. Anything would look better than “greige” carpet.1

So this is my little empty altar – adorned only with the photos of Radha-Natabar, etc. There’s a tiny Jagannatha “altar” that holds its place in the center, but soon (hopefully) that will all make way for larger Gaura-nitai deities (they’re about 15″).

The backdrop you see will be 1) ironed better and 2) possibly with a design of some sort screen printed upon it. My thoughts at this point are this design. Though I’m not sure how it will look.

And once They arrive, more will be done to match the style They’ll bring. I won’t be able to keep up, of course, but I’ll do my best.

Until then it’s just waiting.
