Dear All,

As we approach the end of 2021, I wanted to take a moment to reach out to all of you who have been affected directly or indirectly by the raging COVID-19 in the last two years. The pandemic has unleashed devastation of unimaginable magnitude in our lifetime.

Often, to effectively deal with problems in life we need to have an adult’s mind with a child’s heart. And love and kindness, of course. 

Nikolai Berdyaev, a Russian thinker, once said, “The question of my bread is a material question but the question of my neighbor’s bread is a spiritual question”. This is kindness in a nutshell.

To that end, I would like to thank all the devotees who have helped the ashram through the course of the pandemic, financially and otherwise. Your love, kindness, and compassion have been an incredible support. 

May Sri Hari’s Grace always be upon you, your family, and humanity at large.

Love and peace

Swami
