Sooo... I’ve just started a six-week fundraising appeal in London with these wonderful people (Mike, Declan, Chris, Ramesh Babar, Vajragupta, and Kusaladevi Spence)! We’re going to be raising money for an amazing charity called Karuna which helps to transform the lives of individuals and communities affected by the tyrannical caste system in India and Nepal. 

We’ve all now arrived and are settling into community we’ll be living in together. For most of us, this is the first time we’ve done anything like this and the atmosphere in the community is a good mix of excitement, inspiration, and more than a little apprehension...

The appeal involves knocking on the doors of strangers and inviting them to support Karuna, which, I’m told, can be a profound spiritual practice! We’ve just found out where we’ll be knocking and have had our first training session - the general public now awaits! 

I’m sure there’ll be a lot more to come from us over the next weeks - I’ll keep you posted with my news here! You can also find out more about the work of Karuna at www.karuna.org.

Jai Bhim and love to you all! x
