Green Initiative
27 December 2015
The saplings that were planted a few years back at the venue of our Silence Retreat( concluded today) can be seen in the backdrop. They were well protected and nurtured and are today adding natural beauty to the surroundings, serving as a habitat for the fauna and enhancing the quality of air. Heartening to hear the large assembly of green enthusiasts singing the newly composed thematic anthem “we are not just planting a tree, but our future”

Satsang with green warriors
13th December 2015
Change of setting from the metropolis to a rural belt evoked a sense of gratitude and fulfillment with a great opportunity to interact and sing for the farming community.
The green warriors in the District under the banner of VETRY deserve special mention. As their contribution to reduce global warming, this social forestry group is in the midst of a campaign – Vanathukkul Tirupur. They have so far planted over 1.25 lakh saplings in 100 days. A total of 84 companies, schools, colleges, social welfare organizations even temples are participating. 24 firms provided GPS- fitted tractors to water the saplings and protect them in the years ahead. Operations thus monitored from the Control room.
The Community has already achieved, first of its kind, zero liquid discharge in processing units saving eight crore litres of water per day – effective saving of pumped fresh water. May their tribe increase!

Privilege to address a very large women’s assembly at Shangri-La
12 December 2015
It was a privilege to address a very large women’s assembly at Shangri-La this morning.
Their welcome was unique ushering in the Xmas spirits - Santa adorning us with special stole and cookies too! The exuberance of the IW organising team blended with their meticulous attention to details. Lively Q&A followed. Returning from the venue, remembered the lyrics: “Komal hai kamzor nahi tu, Shakti ka nam hi nari hai; jag ko jiwan dene wali maut bhi tujhse hari hai”
