October 2022 marks my journey of 21 years with the Sacred Lotus. To celebrate this moment and as an offering to the Divine Mother, I opened my Home once again to friends and relatives. This time however modestly. Just inviting 2 folks at a time on three days during the course of the 10 days of Navaratri. Since 2005, I have celebrated my journey with the Sacred Lotus as an offering to the Divine Mother, with Lotus Wick Making Workshops and/or a Lotus Garden Walk (2005, 2008, 2010, 2012, 2017 ) involving 10-20 women. See program The Compassion for Earth Being (THE Lotus Project) Project) . In 2017 I invited 2 men and 2 women - my childhood classmates.

Navaratri 2022 was celebrated with dinner invitations to a couple, a mother and her adult son and to two women for a morning coffee and a chat. All three activities involved an introductory Lotus Garden Walk and an introduction to the Sacred Lotus.
