Oak Ridge residents Dan Mckenzie, Rosa Alonso-McKenzie, and their two children, Grant and Santie, visited Mangal Manjusha in Mahipalpur, Delhi, Delhi India, and shared the latest hometown news while standing in front of Shiv Murti, a giant statue of Lord Shiva. In the tradition of Shaivism, Lord Shiva is the supreme Lord who creates, protects and transforms the universe. Nandi, the bull at left, is the god’s vahana, or “animal vehicle.” The grouping of three deities (right, L-R) are Kartikeya, god of war; Parvati, Lord Shiva’s wife; and Ganesha, remover of obstacles and bringer of luck. Kartikeya and Ganesha are the sons of Lord Shiva and Parvati.
