Love and Gratitude

You can do no great things but only small things with great love.

Love is the essence of life. A life a Sabarmati Ashram teaches you this. From the lady who serves you food, the volunteers who run projects in various communities,the administrative staff, the children at the ramdev pir tekra (slum belt) to the young girls and boys at the ashramshala.their hearts are brimming with love that is reflected in their eyes and the way they welcome you.they open their hearts to you. Shramdaan is a part of your daily life, it could be cleaning up the local compound or painting the terrace , from watering the plants to feeding the birds, each day offers you a new experience,teaches you the power of love, offers you an opportunity to be grateful for every moemt, every person you meet.Be rest assured of being touched by every individual you meet at the ashram who is an inspiration in disguise.

The community prayers are a critical part of beginning the day and sets a beautiful tone to the same.Prayer is an inevitable , powerful and the most beautiful part of your life at the Ashram.
Praying for one ness, for every new learning and experiencew, for the abundance of love, for every meal offers you a life filled with gratitude.

Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and
more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It
can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend.
Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision
for tomorrow.” - Melody Beattle.

Love and Gratitude are a way of life at the Ashram.

Blessed to be here!
