| In the center of the world! |
It was a very busy month as I moved into the role of 'staff' here at the ashram. I was helping register people, book taxis, preparing rooms, serving meals, regulating the hot water and attending to visitors needs. All in all, it was a very good learning lesson in how to stay connected while still dealing with the pressures and stresses around you. Phew, a much harder lesson than I thought it would be. But I made it and I'm so grateful for the opportunity to have taken part of the inauguration of the World Temple. You can read more about it here:

The two videos below are of the World Temple being decorated with flags and a Punjabi sibling quartet making music.
