“The rain has stopped, the clouds have drifted away,
and the weather is clear again.
If your heart is pure, then all things in your world are pure.
Abandon this fleeting world, abandon yourself,
Then the moon and flowers will guide you along the way.”

do people not understand that it’s called “Haveli” and not “Haveli’s”
It’s not disrespect so much as just a common linguistic impulse that people all over the country have. When the name of a place feels subconsciously like a proper noun, people often make it possessive. I’ve heard Penny’s (instead of JCPenny), Nordstrom’s, even Target’s. Of course, this doesn’t work when the name is doesn’t feel like a proper noun (like, GameStop). It’s especially common with restaurants, because it feels like one family inviting another for an event. (just as you would say, going to Roth’s for dinner…Ha Ha)
