A warm heartfelt thank you to everyone who participated or donated! Thank you to all our Donors Swami Radha was always so generous with the Teachings, and we continue to be the beneficiaries. In that same spirit, our donors continue to give generously to support the Ashram so that those who come can be renewed and inspired.

4 maintain the Ashram for everyone drawn here to the Light. Good news for Timeless Books The Glass Seed by Eileen Delehanty Pearkes has recently been shortlisted for the One Book One Kootenay region-wide book club, celebrating local writers of the Kootenay-Boundary through public libraries. The Glass Seed is a memoir of the author s spiritual growth emerging from her experiences in attending to her mother during a terminal illness. Eileen commented, This is wonderful news. Since its publication, The Glass Seed has been quietly inviting readers to consider the opportunities for learning and growth embedded in any tragic illness or loss. The OBOK grassroots process is a wonderful manifestation of the book s unassuming path. Public libraries in some ways resemble a spiritual community, as they are guided by the principles of life-long learning, open access to information and positive belief in human potential.
