"Karma is your experiences of body and mind. The word itself is Sanskrit; it means cause and effect. Your experiences of mental and physical happiness are the effects of certain causes, but those effects themselves become the cause of future results. One action produces a reaction; that is karma."

– Lama Yeshe

Greetings!

By Divine Grace, Singapore has escaped a massive natural disaster and all of us had a very comfortable & Merry Christmas. The magnitude of the Asia earthquake disaster is much larger than the Gurajat Earthquake which we helped in 2001. As our AoL classes are small, our teachers have decided to focus our efforts on Indonesia & Sri Lanka. We have called AoL Indonesia & Sri Lanka High Commission and they have requested your help as follows:

SRI LANKA:
(1) Children clothing
(2) Men's shirts, trousers
(3) Linen & blankets
(4) Canned / Packaged food eg bee hoon
(5) Packaged drinks eg milo. and ladies clothes if any.

Clothing / Linen:
Please ensure that your clothing are clean & in usable condition. Fold your materials & separate each category (children, men) into different bags and write the contents on the bag. This will save us a lot of problems from sorting. If you can store these in carton boxes, it will be even better as we are short of boxes right now.

Send an email to - Shailaja (radhavj@starhub.net.sg) or Chay and April (chaykk@singnet.com.sg) to let us know what you intend to donate.If your donation is a lot or heavy, please call or email us in advance to arrange the cargo so as to avoid the burden of carrying these to level 3.

Deadline:
Please give us your donations by latest Sun 2 Jan 2005. We will deliver your donations to Sri Lanka High Commission and they will ship these out next week.

Collection Point:
Art of Living Yoga & Meditation Centre - Jln Ampas Centre. No: 6 Jalan Ampas, #03-04 off Balestier Road. Tel: 6250-4020

Collection Arrangements:
Please bring your donations to Jln Ampas preferably on Friday 31st Dec - 6.30 - 9.00pm or Sun 2 Jan - 10am - 12.00 pm.
