Sanskrit Kirtan 
(Sacred Sanskrit chanting)

Saturday 7th December 2019 
@5.30-6.30pm 


Please join us for a Sanskrit chanting session.

A relaxed hour of bathing in the sounds of sacred Sanskrit chants to revive you.

NO PRIOR KNOWLEDGE OF SANSKRIT OR SINGING NECESSARY.
Just an open heart.
 
This is really chanting where there is no "knowledge" needed, it is experiential
The sangha, the group join in, in form of call and response
Gradually the mind quietens and the attention drops to fill the body,
and awareness of place, the present, free from the seeming contsraint of time and space
Eventually "I" would disappear and it becomes a meditation


At the Ayurveda Institute UK. All welcome. Suggested donation of £10 for Gabriella.
Stay tuned for news about Sanskrit classes, Kirtan (sacred Sanskrit chanting) and music classes with the multi-talented and much loved Gabriella Burnel, who is a Sanskrit scholar and our Sanskrit teacher at the Ayurveda Institute UK

Sri Lanka



Supun's garden of 47 plants :
The children are growing medicinal plants in their own gardens to be used in Ayurvedic medicines in the UK.

The first phase of this project is now underway - beginning the gardens. Some plants can also be grown to provide food for their own families and to earn an additional income .

Empahat's medicinal garden:
Your support is literally transforming the lives of these children and their families. It means everything to them.
 
Dr Deepika and Geoff will visit these families during their annual holiday in April to donate more provisions. If you would like to donate for vouchers for shoes, uniforms, school bags etc please get in touch with us.
We want to give you an update on how amazingly the children in Sri Lanka are doing with the help of your donations. Thanks to your generosity, scholarships have now been provided for 42 underprivileged children which is supporting their education in schools and universities.

New garden project! 
To extend the support so that it can benefit them long term we initiated a project which involves Ayurveda and we hope can provide both work and income for them. 

Upeksha's medicinal garden:
One of the students who thanks to your scholarships graduated from uni with a degree in agriculture - has been able to advise and help them do this.

In such a short space of time, these young children and their families have already done an amazing job growing many herbs. The enthusiasm and commitment with which they have undertaken this project has really warmed our hearts.
 
Dr Deepika and Geoff have pledged to give a prize to the student who creates the best garden - a new computer to help them with their education!
