I'll have to see what Chinmaya is up to too because I know they have service programs and I wonder if they do a food drive or anything like that.Ambaahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17928793933638999583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3960293404576749034.post-50487256634302922282010-07-19T06:49:53.199-04:002010-07-19T06:49:53.199-04:00Being Hindu, many of us are concerned about the pl...Being Hindu, many of us are concerned about the plight of people in India. I think making certain we buy Indian -- dhotis, saris, jewelry, puja items, etc. -- in order to support Indian cottage industries is a good idea.<br /><br />Finding charities to donate to is difficult. It's hard to know their real agenda, to know where the money's going.<br /><br />As for here at home, where homelessness and hunger are real issues despite the general wealth in America, I believe it depends upon one's means and one's talents. I've seen personally how the Big Brothers/Big Sisters organization can make a difference in a kid's life. And there might be a neighbor -- down the street or across town -- who could really benefit from a couple of bags of groceries dropped anonymously at their door from time to time.<br /><br />Sri Easwaran says it's us little people, changing ourselves for the better, doing the little things that we can, that can improve the world dramatically.Arthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08196513651391624428noreply@blogger.com
