Dhuni Construction

by Dhruvanath

A beautiful new chapter has begun for the Seattle area Naths, with the recent creation and inauguration of Umbra Caelestis Dhuni (the name Umbra Caelestis means celestial shadow kingdom), located in the north Cascade Mountains of Washington State.

The site features a sweeping view of the heavens afforded by its prime location within a clearing next to a river in the center of a wide valley.

Already the ground has become hallowed through several enthusiastic pujas by Naths and friends from the northwest United States and Canada.

This photo shows the river and a slice of surrounding countryside:
