________________ MONA, MOMA & Me January 24th, 2015. I am sitting in Boston, MA, USA. Snow has been falling outside, so I woke up to white earth, brown trees covered with white buds, white flowers; if I look up there is blue sky covered with white rain. There is beauty of white, cleanliness of white, purity of white, and flying, singing, dancing, picture of white. Snow talks and I enjoy. It is as if I am in nature's museum! The Museum of Modern Art (MOMA) in New York City is quite famous. People come from all over the world to see it.

My young son, born in the USA, was also with us. He asked the girl, I hear you have seen the city, did you visit MOMA? She thought, I saw the Statue of Liberty, the World Trade Center, Times Square but, what is MOMA? She said no I haven't, but I do want to shop. She had never been exposed to modern art. He said, listen, if you have not seen MOMA, you have not seen New York. She was convinced. I told her, if you see the museum quickly, we may still be able to do shopping. She enjoyed the museum so much that I could not drag her out. For me, thank goodness, it closed at five that day. We did some quick shopping and I drove back an hour and halfto Connecticut. MONA, Mumukshus of North America is an amazing online organization that focuses on the soul. Today, Saturday morning, January 24th is Shree Kundkund Acharya's 136
