Photos: Tattoos help bombing survivor Sydney Corcoran to heal

Marathon bombing survivor Sydney Corcoran, the many tattoos that now grace her body serve a purpose. “The tattoos tell a story,” said the 20-year-old Dracut resident. “With my actual scars [from the bombing], I didn’t have a choice of how I wanted my body to look. But by getting tattoos I am marking my body the way I want. “I love expressing myself,” she said. On April 15, 2013, Sydney was standing with her mother, Celeste, and her father, Kevin, on the sidewalk near the Marathon finish line on Boylston Street. Her mother lost both legs in the bombing, and Sydney nearly died from a severed femoral artery. A piece of the pressure-cooker bomb the size of a cell-phone lodged in her thigh. Sydney got her first tattoo in the fall of 2013: a lion on her upper back. She had to wait for her doctor’s approval so there would be no complications with the blood thinners she was taking after many surgeries. “The tattoos show how far I’ve come,” Sydney said. “If people ask me what they represent, I’m not afraid to share my story. It’s out there for the world to see.” John Tlumacki/Globe Staff “The lion represents strength and courage to me. It is really meaningful to me, and I draw strength from th...

Hindu temple rises in Groton to meet growing community

Period. No excuses.” Photos: Thursday at the temple Almost 10 years ago, followers of the guru began meeting in a small rented space in Dracut. In 2010, after they outgrew that building, they moved to the current 7,000-square-foot sanctuary in Chelmsford. And at the end of 2016, the temple will move again, to occupy a 40,000-square-foot building under construction on Route 119 in Groton, near the Littleton town line. Meanwhile, the number of Asian-Indian Americans moving to Massachusetts has burgeoned: According to the 2010 Census, the most recent data available, there were 77,177 Asian-Indian Americans living in Massachusetts, nearly half of them in Middlesex County. From 2000 to 2010, the state’s Asian-Indian American population increased by 76 percent, according to the Institute for Asian American Studies at the University of Massachusetts Boston. The Groton temple, being built on 13 of 28 acres purchased two years ago, potentially will be one of the largest and most visible Hindu temples in Massachusetts. The state’s Hindu temples lack a central organization, but according to some estimates there are nearly 30 Massachusetts temples. The first phase, an $8 million project now underway, includes a 100-foot buffer around the perimeter; a two-story, 40,000-square-foot sanctuary; a community kitchen; and a 250-space parking lot. There will be more fund-raising to complete the second phase, an apartment building to house up to four priests, and still more to raise money for the third phase, a 500-seat auditorium for cultural events, education, and community programs. Throughout the planning, prospective neighbors and abutters were invited to express their concerns, ask questions, and learn about the temple. At every stage, following in the footsteps of their guru, temple officers listened and made accommodations. “The site plan review process went very smoothly,” said Groton town planner Michelle Collette. The temple representatives and the general contractor, NM Construction Corp. of Reading, “were receptive to working with the abutters to minimize disturbance.” And temple officers were eager to work with the other faith communities in town. Aram Boghosian for The Boston Globe The Groton construction site for the future temple. “They approached us last year. They’ve participated in our meetings, reached out,” said Shua Khan Arshad, president of the Groton Interfaith Council, adding that the temple’s spiritual and prayer services director, Neelkanth Mishra, is a member of the board. “Not all faith communities do that.” Unlike Islam, Judaism, or Christianity, Hinduism is not one religion, but a way of life. There is no single founder, no single scripture,...
