“I was delighted to learn that everyone’s outstanding efforts have been recognized by the no. of people enjoyed “SURYA NAMASKARA “ as well as All the program. Very well manage, some mistake but we learn from our mistake. This event only happen because we all are united and clearly the word has spread! Congratulations on this very well deserved recognition, and please know how proud to be AN INDIAN, OUR TEAM WORK AND OF COURSE OUR GREAT ACHIEVEMENT. We are all fortunate to be united and work together. I know some people work very very ..hard and some less. But after all it is group effort and we work together that is great achievement for me. Thanks again to all of you and God to give me such a great opportunity and trust me.

A Big Harih Om & Thank you to all!Hearty Congratulations for a great Yoga Day Celebration at the independence mall! We had about 350 participants doing Yoga on teh independence mall and almost 500+ audience throughout the day! All afternoon sessions were very well attended even up to 5 Pm. The last Hare Krishna Kirtan was a perfect way of ending the day long celebrations. Thank you all and many many volunteers who contributed in every possible way for this great YAJNA.God's grace was certainly on us for beautiful weather! Could not dream of better!It was wonderful opportunity for all of us to work together through last 3 months, from mid May, when we had a kickoff meeting at Prasannaji's home. With a team of such diverse nature to begin with, and most possibly many who never met each other before, it was an onerous task to embark upon. A few of us had many discussions over this in early May. All over USA it was mostly 2-3 organizations who took on themselves to celebrate International Yoga Day. But it is only in Philadelphia that we thought of involving as many like minded organizations as possible. As a team, despite a few aberrations here and there, we could live up to the spirit of the meaning of YOGA, uniting or bringing together! This is no small accomplishment by itself!Please feel free to share pictures, video clips via emails, facebook and other media and any positive vibes you experienced. We would like to have a meeting of volunteers in coming weeks as possible, after considering travels plans of many key volunteers.As practitioners or supporters of Yoga our goal was to bring as many like minded together, propogate health & wellness through Yoga, and let people choose what fits their lifestyle and benefit. Certainly it was huge success being the first of its kind in our area.By participating in organizing this Yoga Day we had an opportunity to look inward, reflect, and be conscious of our own limitations and chart a way for our further progress on spiritual path! Let us work on this inner engineering, on ourself, to make this day truely a personal accomplishment as well.Again, on behalf of the Coordinating committee we Thank you all for a great, dedicated team work!Pls. feel free to forward this note to other volunteers whom I might have missed.with Love & Om!IDY Coordination Team If you can not do great things yourself, remember that you may do small things in a great way - Swami Chinmayananda
