We will be focusing on 3 different projects: an earthen meditation structure, Anandam garden work, and a new shrine.

"Seva is actually a token of love, a token of appreciation. If you want to bring out love, just do seva. Cultural differences need not come into this; the energy of service through love is universal. If you want to show your appreciation, you do seva and seva will wipe out your bad karma and create good karma." -Sri Svami Purna |
