Offering in the Temple -Desika Vinayakam Pillai I saw the entire temple: I climbed up the spires as well. My friends! Despite my search I saw the Lord nowhere.   I saw the holy tank; the street Where the chariot moves. Me poor!

NARRATION      Narration is an essential communication skill used in personal, social, and professional life. It involves recounting past incidents, events, and personal experiences, as well as describing current events.
