Where the Stars Align for My Temple Performance


Sometimes when you put out an intention to the Universe and things start happening with effortless ease you know that you are on the right path. You know that there is a higher power that is working behind the scenes in helping you manifest your highest self. That is what I felt happen to me with this year's Navarathri show.

I made the decision to offer a gift of dance to the Goddess as I had felt spiritually and emotionally ready to perform again in Singapore's oldest temple. A big part of this readiness can be traced back to my weekly Tue morning temple visits to Durga. Praying to her with a good friend of mine had helped me really deepen and strengthen my spirituality.

As for my temple performance the stars it seems were perfectly aligned. A "random" discussion with my numerologist revealed this. I was hoping to perform at 244 South Bridge Rd where Singapore's oldest Hindu temple - the Sri Mariamman temple - stands. It is now a national monument. The temple officer called inviting me to perform on 1 Oct as the closing act. That is a real honor as the best acts get to close the show. The energy of audience and the vibration in the temple builds up from morning to the final performance at night.

My numerologist explained how my personal number (No. 1) dominated the calculations. I was due to perform on 1 Oct at 244 south bridge road. 1 Oct + 244 (temple address which makes up 1) + 10 (my birthdate) all are reduced to number 1 - I had 3 sets of No.1s working in my favor. And yes the show was a great success and managed to draw a very multi-racial crowd ranging from tourists, expats and Chinese into the temple for my show. Sometimes it is just in the stars.
