It's all relative.
- If you grew up in Bengaluru, you'll despise what it has become. 😤
- If you moved to Bengaluru from Delhi OTOH. ☺️

Many in South India dedicate Saturdays to Lord Shreeniwaasa (aka Wenkataesha). They offer special prayers to him at home, visit his temple, sing his praise, take his "prasaada" (blessings).
Alt text has a brief of what's in this picture (taken May 11, 2026 #Bengaluru).

A welcome mat for the new baby and the mom. The two will be seated here for a brief ritual before entering the home for the first time.

Picture I took of my TV screen during today's #IPL finals.🏏🏆
Happy that my team #RCB won the #trophy. Like they say in #Bengaluru:
ಈ ಸಲ ಕೂಡ ಕಪ್ ನಮ್ದೇ
ee sala kooḍa kup namdae
This time too the cup is ours

I realize local road travel, especially taxi, is always more expensive (time and money) than long distance rail travel, but this #atrocity in and around #Bengaluru #India: 😒
Train, long distance: 386kms, 4.5 hrs, ₹1980 for two.
Taxi, home to station: 30kms, 1.5 hrs, ₹1100 for two.

If only this "best astrologer in Bangalore" could also *prevent* all my problems.😆

A peacock's elegant dance; a nightingale's sweet sound (volume up). 🦚 🎵
This was yesterday on a rooftop in #Bengaluru #India. Someone in the neighborhood filmed and shared it.

Even James Bond seeks Lord Shreeniwaasa's blessings on Saturdays. 🙇♂️ 😉
Today morning in #Bengaluru. The markings at the top of the altar entrance is common in Shreeniwaasa temple, especially those operated by the "Iyengaar" sect.
(Interesting name on the man's jersey BTW. #iykyk)

Just a mango tree in the neighborhood showing off its wares. 🥭
See if you can spot a ripe fruit. 🔍

"Respect for good traits. Kingly respect for money."
- A bumper sticker
The sticker is in #Kannada, the local language in #Bengaluru #India. The word in red is misspelled (says "raajaa" instead of "raaja") but still 🫡

Vivid colors and beauty almost everywhere you look. Feels good to be back in #India, hopefully for a long-ish stay this time. 🚜
(Zoom in and you'll see there's so much going on in just the front of that tractor.)
