CAPARO, TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO, April 12, 2009: Pundit Seereeram Maharaj, spiritual leader at Shiva Kailash Temple in Caparo, urged parents to become their children’s best friends. Addressing over 300 devotees Thursday night at the Lord Hanuman Jayanti celebrations, he also emphasized that children should place their confidence in their parents.
“Trinidad and Tobago continues to be appalled at the crisis facing the society. And here, parents and children must form this close nexus to promote strict moral and human values. By doing so, we will be knitting and establishing a bondage to ward off the evil tendencies which continue to hurt and haunt our communities.”
The pundit pointed out that Sri Hanuman showed mankind “how to live and spread peace and brotherly and understanding.” He urged leaders of the country to put aside personal and policy differences and work for the benefit of the people, just as “Lord Hanuman did in his dealings with Lord Rama and Mother Sita.”
