“I am here again, blessings to all of you.”

Dear Devotees,

I am here again, blessings to all of you. I am up and distributing 100,000 meals just today for the people who are suffering because of the cycline. Maybe 2.5 million clothes are here to be distributed. Medicines are being distributed.

The local Government has requested us to clean the roads. 6 JCP nad tractors to clean the roads. By tomorrow we are expecting 20 more JCP and tractors for cleaning up. Everyting is going great. I am really missing you all guys. Hope that all you guys come here and enjoy the joy of serving. We have extended our kitchen. 3 teams are cooking. Continuously the cooking is happening and serving is happening. You can all see here now.

Moksha Priyan speaks -

The food is being cooked and being packed. ….food is being cooked through out the day….we started cooking for lunch already now (it is 8:05 am in the morning) and cooking is continuously on through out the day. You can see all the wokers cooking. Yesterday Swamiji gave so many things like bed sheets, clothes to everyone. We received a truck load full of bed sheets, blankets, clothes etc yesterday. All these Swamiji segregated these things and gave 3 pieces to each person who came to receive. All these people who are tirelessly working through out the day, just one gesture by Swamiji were rejuvenated. Swamiji literally gave instruction that the fire should not be put out. It has been continuously on for the past two days. Over tens of thousands of meals have been distributed so far. Swamiji said for the next four days over one lakh meals have to be served. We need more hands to help in volunteering and monetary support to carry this on.

One thing we realized as we went around yesterday, one thing we realized is any other NGO, spiritual organization is not able to fit the bill. There is no organization supplying any food to the people. Swamiji said let us focus on cooked food where families can focus on eating it not even raw material which may notb e used properly. You see tamarind rice, tomato rice and sambar rice which is being cooked and dispatched. Just a few hours before this it was cloudy and started to drizzle. We ran to Swamiji and requested let nature not give us more challenge and the rain stopped. It is brigbht and sunny right now. You can see the vegetables, rice and salt bags all over here. You can see our blissful volunteers putting the tomatoes in the chopping machine. Here you see doctors serving, Ashramites Holding OLDING BAGS OF SAND. It is a make shift place and you can see bags of sand being carried and filled in so that there are no hygiene issues. There you see Swamiji monitoring. He is doing the rounds himself morning, afternoon, evening, distributing vibhooti cards, blessings cards, healing people. There were thousands of people who were in que to receive blessings from Swamiji. Yesterday the food counters were empty while people were receiving blessings to Swamiji.

Here you see Nityeshwar who is a Chartered Accountant lifting rice bags. So no barriers or restrictions of qualifications. People are just coming in and doing whatever they can to support this cause. There you can see Swamiji telling all voluteers to wear head cap and maintain hygiene and saying that they should wear the head cap with hair inside the head cap and not outside. You see all the IA participants, volunteers experiencing enlightenment in action. (Swamiji wears the cap himself) and he says – “I am showing by example!” ☺

You can see here the tamarind rice being packed and put together ready to be served.
