Om Namah Shivaya All,

International Year of Youth, August 2010-August 2011

Aum Amriteshwaryai Namah

Dear All,

Amma has agreed today to make 12 August 2010 - 11 August 2011 to the "International Year of Youth" (IYY) for Her organization.

During this year we hope to see an increased enthusiasm amongst youth to implement AYUDH activities in their respective places. Amongst all other activities, Amma has said, She would like to see the youth care for Nature.

So one initiative that we would like to encourage you to do is to tree planting. Within the IYY we want to set a certain goal (and achieve it!!!), maybe 108 on each continent.

Please write back to us if your AYUDH group wants to participate in this during the IYY and let us know the number of trees you want to plant by 15 July 2010, so that we can announce the final number during the opening ceremony of the IYY on August 12.

Hari, an AYUDH member from Scotland, will be collecting the numbers and following up your pledge during the year. Please contact him directly, as soon as possible: neomahatma@gmail.com

Looking forward to your cooperation and an exciting year of youth 2010/2011.

in Amma's service

Nath and Hari

AYUDH Americas Goal: 108 by August 2011!

Summer Seva at the Ashram



Cow Seva: Training for cow seva is available at the Cow Barn any day from 7 to 9 a.m. and 7 to 9 p.m. when the milking takes place. Best not to wear sandals.



New Orchard Seva: Seva in the new orchard is happening most days except Thursdays and Fridays, but always on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Some of the tasks are: Irrigation lines haunched and ready to be buried by the weekend of the 10th of July, weeds cleared, mulch pushed back, tree trunks painted, cages made to keep voles out, bird perches constructed and installed.

Kitchen Seva: An assistant lunch cook is needed most Wednesdays and Saturdays from 11 to 1:00. Dishwashers are always needed after lunch. A team of dishwashers makes fast work and people can get back to their other sevas.
