God dwells in the heart of all beings...God dwells in thy heart
And the power of wonder moves all things-puppets in the play of shadows-
whirling them onwards in the stream of time.

Selection from the Mahabarata, ancient Hindu epic.

"We can't thank you enough for the marvelous display of your marionettes and puppets....
your story telling was absolutely superb. We had such enthusiastic response
for the whole display. Many said that they had never seen anything like it.
It was an experience that will long be remembered."
Mary Shannon, Program Assistant,
Pacific Asia Museum, Pasadena, California
