Wednesdays are magic, here in Ahmedabad. Last week, Uday-bhai (the gift-economy rickshaw driver) brought his 3 very young children for meditation — and they sat for the whole hour! A mother and her daughters are regulars. Our cook, Arti-ben, has started observing silence for an entire day every week; now her husband, who used to be a daily laborer and an alcoholic, has started coming and become sober and sometimes even brings his friends! Even when we’re not in town, someone or another hosts Wednesdays in our home. Just a year or so into, random strangers have started to come and join us. Thanks to charity focus family from where it all started. Silence was never so beautiful.
