Steve Jobs’ wife Laurene Powell visits Kashi Vishwanath Temple before Maha Kumbh

New Delhi: Laurene Powell Jobs, the wife of late Apple co-founder Steve Jobs, paid a visit to the Kashi Vishwanath Temple in Varanasi on Saturday before travelling to Prayagraj to attend the Maha Kumbh. She was accompanied by Swami Kailashanand Giri Ji Maharaj of Niranjani Akhara during her visit to the temple.

She wore a pink suit and a white ‘dupatta’ on her head. Laurene offered her prayers from outside the sanctum sanctorum at the Kashi Vishwanath Temple. Kailashanand Giri said that Laurene followed the traditions of the temple…”As per our Indian tradition, in Kashi Vishwanath, no other Hindu can touch the Shivling. That’s why she was made to see the Shivling from outside,” he reportedly pointed out.

He also noted that they prayed for the smooth and successful completion of the Maha Kumbh, free from any impediments or problems. Kailashanand Giri added that on Saturday, they came to Kashi to pray to Mahadev that the Kumbh is completed without any obstacles… “I came here to invite Mahadev. Our disciple Maharshi Vyasanand is with us from America. Tomorrow he is becoming a Mahamandaleshwar in my Akhara.”
