I decided today to post a bit about what I do for a living. It’s kind of interesting so I thought sharing it could be fun.
I work for Radha Madav dam the largest hindu temple in the southern United states.
I myself am not hindu but I respect them and they are nice people.

We have about 65 full time residents called “devotees” that live on the property. (The hindu equivalent of monks… kinda.) We have a yoga retreat center that hosts groups of between 15 to 200 people. The temple and buildings take up a small portion of the 240 acre property in the austin hill country. The rest is forest, river (a small one), and walking trails (10 miles of trails).
We have quite a bit of wildlife as well.

Softshell turtles live in the river..


Baby foxes out exploring

A dillo digging up the garden

Curious squirrels

Peahens

Peacocks
And probably about 50 deer live on the property year round.
There is a decorative pool behind the temple and small shrines around the property.


And inside the temple is just as beautiful

I bet your asking yourself.. what is a dominant doing working in a place like that? Well… it’s peaceful. I like that.
And what do I do there? Well I started out cooking in the yoga center for retreats but then during the off season started to fix things around the temple. Now I do so much I dont have enough hours in the day.. electrical work, plumbing, ac repair, construction, building repairs, landscaping, I take care of the trails, Forrest, and basically keep the buildings working and the land nice looking. It can be brutal in the summer, but somehow I keep surviving so I keep working.
Hope you enjoyed another peek into my life.

Best wishes -SirHanz
