Dear {contact.first_name},

December Newsletter

This will be the last AHYMSIN Newsletter of 2015. As a year ends it is often the time for us to consider how we are using time. At the end of 2012, Swami Veda reminded us “Each second a new year begins.” We have updated his message to the current year… “May all the 31536000 years from 31 December 2015 to 31 December 2016 be cause for celebrations and serve for you as gateways to the Non-temporal.”

Cleaning blankets for Karma Yoga during TTP Helping others to clean blanketsThis newsletter includes the TTP bi-annual newsletter as well. Here’s a couple of photos of TTP students participating in ‘karma yoga day’. Notice the youngest participant helping out!

We would like to thank all who have contributed to the AHYMSIN Newsletter. Your sharing has enriched the sangha. We invite this sharing to continue. John Sellinger has kindly agreed to start helping with the AHYMSIN Newsletter editing.  Stephan Hodges continues with formatting and other assistance. We are looking for additional people who would like to help. Please contact us if you are interested in exploring opportunities.
