 Good afternoon to every one of you and thank you so much for being here Luckily the rain is fine now. There is no rain despised here weather alert Okay We make we will do a minute of silence Because now a rebellion has passed and will pass the voice to One of our dear brothers Bernard Bogue He passed away yesterday afternoon And before we start the proceedings of the day I Wish that you'll join us in a two-minute silence to pay homage to the department soul. Thank you. I Introduce myself My name is Bianca. I am a newcomer and I'm also a life coach I'm here in Orville since two years and My soul brought me here like a lot of you from the moment I arrived I had the I had the great opportunity of Working with a lot of people through my work through life coaching and At the beginning I I had the great opportunity of working with many People in our wheel our villains guests and at the beginning I had the impression that there was A distrust in some people About the possibility of moving forward of Relouncing the tree not the dream but the aspiration of changing things And then at some point I found out that there was a powerful energy Boiling I can say in many many hearts here in Orville And I found out that There is this not only aspiration, but a great desire and commitment to Work for the change so Mmm Some of us after the meeting with the secretary Dr. Jayanti we felt the need to reaffirm the uniqueness of Orville and of us And to work together and finding finding solutions and proposals to To work concretely for the dream To come true. Okay. We we want to Make this meeting as a wake-up call So we will Present we will introduce you or someone may already know An instrument that is zero Someone knows some yeah, but is zero and I found that someone doesn't know absolutely or has Confused ideas. So we think that this is a great instrument to convey the possibility of Working on projects on proposals to move forward and to work all together For the change to come and the dream to come true So to have a good attitude to start with our meeting We will have an invocation Chanted but abaya revinda's and this core and I ask I'm pleased to Sing for us. Thank you. We will invoke with share windows Gayatri Mantra with I think many of us are familiar with Among you also. We did that for 15th of August So those who know it join us those who don't listen and The translation of the Gayatri Mantra is Let us meditate on the most auspicious home of Savitri The light of the Supreme That shall illumine us with the truth. This is a mantra by share window Yeah Yeah I Keep the word and the voice to pass you 150th birthday anniversary of share window has triggered certain ideas of how to celebrate where institutions associates friends all over the world are Coming up with different ideas how to do the celebration normally when we want to honor a Son or the daughter of the nation the celebrations take shape and form in terms of statues in terms of seminars conferences and sometimes Long-term institutions statues we garland them give all the emphasis on the ideals that Great personality has made available to us and then we forget it becomes a routine similarly conferences and seminars have a momentary Relevance, but then soon enough it's forgotten in the hub of our normal activities Institutions created lost a little longer, but as the time passes such institutions Have the tendency To forget the ideals that that great personality had shared with us to go forward It is in this context that one of the ideas that emerged Has been named as multi-versity perhaps it resonates with the present situation of our will and Some of the parents and the youth perhaps find that that is the direction to take this has inspired us today to come and Look at our own journey which inspired us to come and Participate in this adventure of consciousness called our will So today what we want to do is to go back to the beginning of the journey Look at What are the inspiring? Directors given by the founder the mother of how have we understood it in terms of the physical planning and Manifestation and to see if we can reflect seriously as To where we are today Examine and see how we can realign ourselves with the original inspiration that process brought us here with that I Wish to draw your attention Particularly in this case as we are starting to discuss with multi-versity because children In our will are an integral part of this experiment and the most important one because of us who have come earlier or perhaps the carpenters and the plumbers and The mechanics to get it going physically But children are the future and it's the children that we have to provide the necessary ambience and Atmosphere for them to grow into knowledge that brings them forward into the generation to come for the city to be What mother intended what she have in the wants us to work towards an evolutionary process Where every aspect of our life Whether it is physical mental vital psychic Spirit are all geared and focused to this growth of What we intend eventually to hope will happen in The human unity that is the theme of our role in this context I want to draw your attention go back please To the dream that was the starting point of this project When mother says in this place Maybe Titles and positions would be replaced by opportunities to serve and In this place the children would be able to grow and develop integrally without losing contact With their souls Education would be given not for passing examinations are obtaining Certificates and posts but to enrich existing faculties and bring forth new ones please next one and Then when she gives us the charter It's interesting that when she says our will belongs to nobody in particular Our will belongs to the minority as a whole But then she underlines a very very strong Emphasetic statement But to live in our will one must be a willing servitor of the divine consciousness That is the line that and Emphasizes the responsibility that we take when we Start this journey of this beautiful adventure and Then she goes on to say our will be the place of an unending education of constant progress and youth that never ages it is in this spirit that today we want to take this journey back to the beginning and Align with that thought and see how best we can move forward on that principle next one, please We have recently been talking about 15,000 people It is not a number that we want It is a selection. It is not brilliant students that we want It is the living souls Next please in terms of education for our will when we started in aspiration These names came automatically to the mother last school after school Super school no school We still carry on with the last school But we are far away from the other positions in the meanwhile next one, please I just wanted to tell you a funny things that happened yesterday we were preparing the Presentation and we put this light that is a something written by the mother and I created this light and then I tried to see as a presentation and then the slide disappeared Then I created four times and I Duplicated and never it appeared on the presentation then we asked it what was happening. What is that and After so we prepared this another one exactly the same because we weren't sure that it was appearing today And then this morning we wake up. We woke up and it was there So we asked ourselves. What is the reason of this? Maybe it's a message of mother saying you have to work on school in a different way. I don't know Next one, please Next one you see this takes us back to when mother finally decided in 65 to a point Roger as the chief architect of this project was 700 So whether we are planned or we have not planned it is happening in any case with her grace Then when we come to this aspect of the work Because it is known well known mother's wish that all of us should Do collective work Minimum five hours a day if Sundays we want to take out at least six hours a day What should be the work? It starts in 69 with this idea, which was Fully understood by the mother and Roger in that sense Production of quotes 30% Services 45% Cultural activities 25% It goes on like this in all these areas and This is a reminder that perhaps we have Somewhere on the way Slightly deviated from these ideas and so on so forth and now is the time to try and realign because Suddenly this 150th anniversary birth anniversary of share of Bindu has brought a new Hope a new wave and a new dimension and a new energy and if we have to take full advantage of this energy to move forward We cannot crawl anymore. We have to leap forward in that context next please in terms of formal or informal education Which is the subject of? Our prime concern today Parents and as far as the youth Even from the very beginning There are two aspects that were already provided the one here What was at that time called? the University of peace next one please and Another one was what was called the technical college Both of these Find their expression also in today's master plan So in terms of the formal education Certain age is necessary So that the child gets geared to understanding the language to understand the various subjects and so on so forth And then the child is encouraged to explore explore with the mentors and not essentially a classroom and In this direction some of the children when they grow up they would like to go into Furthering their knowledge in researches and so on so forth and for that you have in Common terms we call it a university in terms of our will we call it from the University of peace it eventually after consultations first with the mother then Roger had a associate Joshi Between the two of them one was an educationist associated with the ashram and the mother very deeply They arrived at finally a name called Center of international research in human unity It's broad theme Sometimes confuses most of us So today we felt that we want to share with you the physical design of that place to give you an idea that it does not Either exclude or Eliminates or overlooks the possibility of that Knowledge that the young people have to acquire to become the researchers and The future citizens of our world at the same time many of the children as we know They essentially do not want to go into higher studies or in researches and want to be Skilled in certain professional activities as such so both these provisions are here The only thing is perhaps in our busy Activities of life-to-life struggle and so on so forth We have missed out at these points and our idea today is to draw your attention to this once again and to re-emphasize gather our forces together to come forward and Build the city as it is being promised now Also with the support that is coming from various sources including government of me. Thank you. Next one in the current master plan education and culture International studies on humanity Indian and east-west culture synthesis of knowledge art crafts and technology These are the aspects that siru at the level of higher education so-called higher education and research would be able to provide Next one, please Now I hand it over to Lucy to try and explain to you Thank you, Pashi. Yes. We have this important I would like to read that When I was coming to this meeting I received a message from us there and I would like to share it with you It's addressed to work in committee, but she's asked me to read it out to you Friends allow me to share some perceptions Our will has received increasingly since early days individuals groups of students teachers and eminent personalities artists in all fields from India and Internationality for a lived experience that our will offers Our will aspires in share windows and in fiftieth birthday anniversary for a further widening of This circle it shares after the mother founded in 50 years ago the field of diverse activities With its soul the matri mandir at the center on going through the draft proposal of the multi-versity the structure presented with Designations is not in residence with the field of experience such as our will holds Which is an ever-growth of consciousness and its progressive expression in life with this manifold activities as a Collectivity of humanity the future calls for our an ascending movement of the world's collective It is an organic growth of the world Spirit not to be held within a structured form of function and evaluations Thank you, and this is in fact also Finding an expression in our current secretary Letter that she's addressed specifically to the golden chain the ex-sturince of ashram and Devotees and sons of the mother which she will read it for you.

The activities to promote research to interact between the research and to prepare To unfold the energy Can be located can ever next One things I want to make it clear some people Misunderstand that zero is only a building and this and that not at all Building is necessary to create proper activities, but the main things is to promote the Endless number of research is in our field and we are coming with in within one minute Stretch one We are coming to The form which we would like to distribute Proposal form Very simple, we don't want to make it too bureaucratic But where people your dreams or dreams of a group can be formulated budget giving a time frame and Present that for the time being and we invite You to come up and help this initiative Actively because this has to be managed properly for the time being there are the forms somewhere Somewhere there Suleika you have it so you ask Suleika in case you have some project to give you the phone and Return it to Bianca Don't send it to me Okay, but this is a way to call this is a call for project to see Set from within and our will comes the energy for development That is the one of the reason of today.

My name is Sophie I was very surprised when someone forwarded me this letter of the secretary of the foundation to the Golden chain Since as a resident of the resident assembly of world will I haven't been contacted before I haven't been talked about this project I'm feeling very Puzzled by this letter that the secretary of your foundation decided that we need people from outside to build our city That she has a whole program without even consulting the resident first, so I would like some light on this You remember I said it appears that we are on the same page But the devil is in the details and that's exactly what You're pointing out because it has been overlooked the fact that We really have to take on the responsibility and Decide and Not people who will come from outside and for such they will come to help if they want to in the best possible manner But basically it is our responsibility and we have now to take that responsibility in fact so far Why this has happened is because we have avoided to take the responsibility Resident assembly has not come forward and has not been consulted according to us. It is important that we the residents Are fully informed in transparent manner So that we can know where we are going and how we can travel together With the cooperation and collaboration of others But the main Responsibilities are and this is the point that we have to necessarily emphasize. I agree with you. Yeah Yeah, I'm also In our concurrence with passion what Pashi said we have pressure from outside which risk comes on time to be arbitrary and artificial and this is pushing us to come from within and Propose an hour of bill which is Solution yes the world but something which carries the spirit of our own and we also like you we don't want something Impose on our but the moment is crucial. We are a crossroad and that's why this meeting and this one this topic Yeah, please so you have read one letter and Lata post it in the arrow net so everybody knew I Have received another letter and other people have received another letter and These letters from the Dean of Pondie Central University international relations and It concerned the fact that the Pondie University has been invited To have a memorandum of understanding With the foundation this is the first line But the second line is quite special Because our will is defined as a national institution Governed by the government of India But I asked the working committee and explanation explanation was not coming So I spoke with one of them And he said that they were themselves surprised and they were trying to find out what is this So that was on Saturday as now I've seen there are two of them a Shreemoy and sorrow I would like to see whether finally they know Because in the meantime I I read in internet what is a memorandum of understanding in India so He's not just an invite letter. He can also turn into a legal document But the second bullet talks on fraud So we have to be very careful because first of all Community doesn't know anything but second I cannot personally cannot believe that the Dean of Pondie University international relations can write in something so gross So I would like to know from where this comes And above all I want that this is rectified Anyhow out of that I started wondering If our will is a national institution governed by the government of India It means that the act has been repelled Or about to be repelled. So this member of the working committee told me no no no This has not happened But then another thing that came out and this is also called connected to the letter to to the fraternity These people have been given several points of the master plan and the ATDC will present to them First of all, not only we are not invited But we don't even know anything So the question arise that as long as the our will foundation act is alive It is for the resident assembly To elaborate the master plan, but also to update it and then it is for the governing board To approve or amend or whatever Anyhow, this is the act So how we our these things can happen What is the resident assembly going to do and what the working committee is going to do? Thank you So do you want to say something or three more? Well when Luigi Give me them positive invitation. I told him that it was not a good idea to connect here with multi-versity Multiversities proposal that come from outside. It has generated the Discussion with the large meeting large participation next last week there has been a draft which has been prepared for the As an act of parliament that this draft is going to be a review They both say here and working committee has clearly say in the meeting that In the view of it should not be mentioned in the draft and should not be the opposite multiversity the point which In that meeting itself. I refer myself to zero is a rather than keep going on being on Reactive and negative and let's try to develop what we are Doing what are our original idea and mentioned here in that context and I had hope that this meeting would be focused on Why there is in turn a couple international zone? Why there is a Center for International University or new man unity inside the international zone and how We can take the initiative Again, so that is I would I mean for me the way it has been formulated as lost the focus I would invite to make focus because it's true The resident has to be a bit being quite Inactive in the past few in the past few years It has been perceived as a stagnating body And that's why external agency are intervening. So there are all these facts like this letter of The Dean University we have wrote the foundation. We are waiting a reply. Let's see if they know something and that that's it and Regarding the letter of the Collaboration now we had just posted this working committee a full clerical a note in the our net has been posted this afternoon So I invite to everyone to go and read that note. I am a bit surprised by the reactions I understand certain uneasiness for certain passages. I can understand but basically is a letter that invites to collaboration with People was studying in the ashram. We have been donor of our will to try to Corporate and support found raising for getting the land for our will Getting the infrastructure and getting the houses So should we discuss this the fact that we are in discussion that we are surprised it is this type of letter means that We have lost a bit focus that is What to get landed to make to make efforts to build out into building for such should be our Primary scope our own primary initiative is not something that we have to go and ask around every every minute all around permission to Raise fund for land or for developing the city So that is why again, I go back to what they said have been a less focus on being Proactive of being initiated come from our own of course. There are incoming arrow from outside We have to deal with it, but let's our focus being on what we are able to regenerate and mobilize our own forces inside our wheel as a member of our willion as Pasi said as people who are resident of our will you are the primary responsibility to develop this place Thank you. Thank you Okay, my name is Sandeira and what comes up for me is actually I do see that the resident assembly is a very sleeping body and What comes up for me is actually you are asking to fill up forms for proposals for the future But I'm wondering do you have any database? What's alive already? We have so many projects which are going on and we have to gather our Power and see what we are already doing and come together and start to Actually Executes is in a much wider field. So I'm wondering do you have a database? Are you planning to have a database? Because I think when we are realizing what's going on in different sectors of our society and See each other more Properly because I think we are not realizing what we have so Naturally a power comes up and then we kind of developing out of what is alive already We are developing a power for the future, but if we are hanging something like we have an ideal Of creating something. It's kind of airy-fairy But if it's grounded in what we have it will have much more power and then we can also Show to the outside what we are what we can give what we what there is already and I'm just wondering what's what's going on in this regard. Yeah, I want to reply to that Thank you, Sandeira. I I It was my opinion at the beginning when I and when I found wrote read about zero That there was a lack of communication Not all in zero, but in our wheels somehow because people don't know what the others are doing and there is a lot Going on. I absolutely agree with you. There are a lot of wonderful beautiful projects that No, not all the residents know about so I Prepared a proposal of communication strategic plan to create a database of all the existing things that have been done and from that Going moving forward and to collect The existing ones the project already existing and others that may arise From that and we are working together. Absolutely not necessarily As an umbrella that wants to do everything but together I absolutely agree so our Proposal was for those who are not having someone who can help to develop the project they can send Apply the form and send ideas and let it let it us know what is what are the projects undergoing so we can communicate we can share and facilitate the communication and maybe finding To find the partners found these I don't know so this is our ideas There is a common place where we can meet all together and share the Wonderful Ideas that are that exist already, but then there may be other things that can be developed so The call to action was that Let's see who we are what we can do what we can give to the outside world as unique place unique Identity and then develop all together this this was the idea for this meeting in fact to communicate that Sandhira You are welcome along with others people who are interested because all has to be build up I don't care about a name zero not zero doesn't matter. We are our villains Who try to build the next step if there is a response if there is not a response? I go to the beach we go to the beach But the potential and the responsibility which passing means and that we know in our soul But the reason why we have been called here calls for a commitment That we have never seen before only in certain moment and I tell you and in this we have to Rebuild completely the the sense of a movement forward Otherwise, we got stagnating and as how rightly mentioned arrows will continue to come and not only arrows Heavy stuff. I would like to so my invitation is not only for Sandhira but for any of you who can help in Responding to this into organize and focus, but in response to several I would like to say We are at an incredible crossroad and what is a started here is only the beginning It's only the beginning the years to come. We have to be strong We have to be gentle because and vigilant Because we feel that some of our working group are in the beginning of miss vigilance No, you get excited with this and that and then when you see the legalistic aspect It can be a disaster for our point is one Years ago and the same team our wheel is under the dependencies Department department of the government. We went to two constitutional lawyers You may remember the name Solis Arab and the other one they fall in a remand top constitutional lawyers and We have still their report Consistent legal report which analyzes very well What are the responsibility of the government? What are the responsibility of the residence assembly and it's a representative the working committee? What comes out is first our reveal is an autonomous statutory body. Am I correct in the definition? Autonomous statutory body is not a body of the government But otherwise what is the sense to make an act of parliament and this we have to stand behind because there will be many challenges down the road and The working committee and other groups they should I know it's not easy But they should call the residents of our wheel because we have to stand united Not to protect in the name of our freedom is this no but to protect the identity of our wheel The possibility of creativity and here is the beginning so the question and they conclude on this is Why we don't say it only no to a proposal which large number of Avrovillian have felt artificial It's because we want also to say yes, but if that yes doesn't come We open the door to Something which may not be good for our My name is Ram Narayan I See it is a very important point and we are The residence assembly is not consulted and there is a very serious concern but on this serious concern how many of us from the community are here to address that and And in our community we are Also Residents assembly is not functioning and we are divided not only divided but the multi divided and there is a saying in Sanskrit the way The way Viva the truth is she allow her when two people quarrel The third takes the advantage So when we are multi divided it is like this when the proposal stuff like this come It is also certain Avrovillians who are behind this. So we have to strengthen our cells residence assembly and For your information, you will be surprised to know that recently there is a letter from Orville Foundation asking that to give the Assets that is built with the government to fund for the foundation staff And the housing board is yielding to it So there are many things and there also some Orvilleans who are responsible for saying this and Behind the foundation. So this is something and the other things are also there We need to see as a and we have to have a common voice and in the parliament act That you see not that everything or anything that the foundation can do there is a limitation to that We can also go through that and as you say we have to have a legal consultation very strong legal consultation how to keep proper direction to the Whole thing and the residence assembly the pound the power is that given that should be protected. Thanks When Luigi said that is an autonomous body Yes To the point that this is something I discuss very often between it was a murti They are not the employers of the government They have no pension. They have no right whatsoever So when they stop working, they must have saved money throughout their life Because they will not get anything from the government. So it's absolutely impossible to declare Our will an institute a national institution governed by the government of India While even the employees of the Auroville Foundation are not Can I say something? if I may This is not the moment or the occasion to go into the legalities because we know That there are so many misinterpretations even of the foundation act and in action Responsibilities and authorities are all so mixed up that we have created a Complete confusion and this is exactly where I say we have not been able to Realize the fact that foundation act was merely intended to provide a Legal recognition to this beautiful experiment But the experiment has to be carried out in the vision of the mother and there is nothing stopping us to do that We started arguing about who has the rights According to me. It is not the question of rights It's the question of the responsibility and the obligation to move forward for all the three constituents Whether it's a resident assembly or it is a working committee or it is the Governing board or for that matter even the advisory committee We have to move forward and not get into the Nitty gritty of legality to that extent I think it is the goodwill that will move forward because we are part of parcel of the same movement That is how I see it. Maybe there are issues Being misinterpreted and misrepresented by different people at different times for Moment has come here if we come forward as Collaborators, I think all these differences that have been created will start disappearing Because they are negative issues that keep coming up from our lower mental Sorry to say that but we have allowed ourselves to become What I call the modern tower of Babel We must realign ourselves with the original theme and with all humility See where we have gone have gone wrong because we also need to do Introspection of ourselves and our efforts. So for God's sake, I think we should not make it as an issue This was brought out because an external force has come into play to force us to think how we can reorganize the education of our children in context of the arable spirit where everything is a living laboratory siru offers a possibility of even That stream of the children growing up and participating into higher knowledge base. So I think We intend to even talk with sire on the subject and see how they can realign Whatever they're doing now with the original spirit of education and how siru can play its own role Because siru provides for all those researchers in the physical sciences once we have a focal point in the physical because Whenever you start an activity, you need two aspects. One is the content Which is the aspiration of how you want to do things and the second is to have a place where you can express yourself siru What has been displayed to you as a design is the place and what we have to do is how we can bring the content Which is our responsibility so with this I would say that let's confine our Today's conversations to the positive aspects of how we can realign with it rather than go into too many Legalities and integrities, which is not our objective our objective is basically to awaken that Discussion and debate which takes us forward into the positive direction. Thank you Hello, I'm Joseph living in acceptance and I happen to be an author do research on what's going on in our field and I first of all, I appreciate very much your introduction on Institute you're promoting it It reminds me a little bit on on YouTube all the all the movies on you on our reveal on YouTube How beautiful it is and how high all our aims are and the realization about that My question is you mentioned Conversation I Would like very much what you understand by conversation Conversation about what? Yeah, conversation. I Refer more to a debate or a dialogue Because I would like very much. I'm not here doing which is very noble. I appreciate very much But I'm more concerned how you do it Because for me our will is a process and not a product and I relate to the dialogue because I would like very much There is an openness amongst us and discussing courses instead of symptoms Because I'm here for 22 years and I roll from one issue into another issue And we will find a solution for the issues whether we like it or not, but we never touch the cause Because the cause is something needs a dialogue amongst all of us Because I have some difficulties myself is the practice of Salana what mother wants She shows me a road, but I have to walk the road myself And if I go on repeating mother says mother says mother says I Have the impression that we are all having new gurus here who know it all the best and Each one is having their own views and It reminds me on the 60s when the Gestalt therapy was there then everybody was right and nothing happened So my question only is You call this an international institute you want an international collaboration I'm almost sure that within our reveal. We don't have to specialization to discover the malpractices What we are presenting to the outside world at the moment Because I think Salana is an extremely difficult yoga. It's not for everyone and We are living here with 3,000 people So I am not able to measure who is here right and who is here wrong, but I only see That there is a lot of misconception regarding mother's vision and Mother's vision each and every time every page I read on Cheryl been doing the mother It's a slippery path Each step forward two steps backwards and I think when we are allow ourselves To have an internal dialogue where we can admit that maybe there's something wrong in our practice Then maybe we find a more easy solution for the difficulties. We are facing Then endlessly arguing endlessly new discussions new institutions and not being able to integrate the old part Of what we have been doing. Thank you very much Joseph has shared with me one of his latest publications it was only a few days back and I found it a fascinating reading of a person who is really a researcher I Would like To take this opportunity of saying That we do really do as for the content is concerned Need to develop a dialogue so that we know where we're going and Unfortunately, we have missed that point due to many other aspects and pressures that have developed historically in The growth of our will if we are at the crossroads today It is basically because of those external pressures to which we will not be able to answer positively So as far as I'm concerned Joseph, I agree with you But this is something that has to take place by the people who are willing to participate in that dialogue and More of those us get into that dialogue the more easy it would be for us to understand and to move forward But thank you very much for bringing this point up. Thank you Just one second to compliment Joseph because this morning itself Pashi read to me from your book a passage from zero and maybe You have understood zero better than us It was so inspiring. Thank you. You wanted you want this one. I Don't know if this is partly what sorrow was alluding to Because I have to say I completely appreciate the intent of what you have presented and proposed But I found it also lacking focus. It was meditative. It was slow. It was lyrical It was beautiful. There was zero sense of urgency or we need to step up to the plate It was missing dynamism completely. So I feel like there's a whole energetic Dynamic and actually I'm getting older. I kind of appreciate slow and meditative these days But 20 years ago no way I would have been pulling my hair out with frustration at the pace of this at the Repetition and all of that and I'm just giving it to you as feedback because I think this is great I think it's important. I think seru has a place I think it could be a container for a lot of wonderful things and oh my god You have to do it like you're not Intending to kind of put people to sleep but you're intending to energize and be impassioned and have some you know a sense of Urgency because when I hear that this meeting was called for all these outside people to come and build the city on December 12th And I didn't hear about it until just now. I'm like You know so I think and no, I don't want to be I mean given who the letter was sent to I'm sure they're all you know Wanting to truly help, you know, but Yeah, I just wanted to give that feedback as in terms of you know, we need the young people involved We definitely need young people involved and so just a bit more Dynamism energy Enthusiasm, you know that kind of thing I think would go a long way towards, you know, it's it's I mean I I've never really liked cheerleading, but they do play a role, you know in the crowd. So That's all I wanted to say appreciation and Appreciation Yeah, this is what I felt when I read the for the first time About the zero that I didn't know and I realized. Oh my god But this is something that people if people could understand that this is an instrument at all To develop every every possible thing together Even if it's that is not the name zero. It doesn't matter, but we can be together young people all Everyone who has done something that is undergoing new ideas And I thought okay, we have to explain the resident the people living here in Norville young people but also all the others that There is a possibility to do something more together and I wasn't just so I proposed myself I'm not in the zero. I have no Upon not no charge of anything so I am no one but I Felt the need and the urgency absolutely agree with you to do something to move people to involve people to feel That there is a possibility now the energies are there with my work I met really a lot of people Quite 300 people since I'm here and I touched the core the hearts of the people and I cannot show you That there are a lot of people who want to do something different to to work for the change. So we decided to have this meeting to to To address people to to participate And the not only not anymore the aspiration but the concrete Work to change and to reach the dream. This is what we thought There is someone else who want to say something. Yes, very briefly So we all feel it's open. It's open. We feel all the enthusiasm So to come back to practical What is your vision so we we share for example, we feel the the form we share it with you and What is the next step? so So Yeah, in order to create a common ground and to create a database or To know at least in the beginning. What is happening? What are the new ideas who are the people who want to involve themselves? so we need people to work on All the development in every field you have seen all the different fields of activities So we proposed for this moment We had very few time to organize that so we propose to Create this form to put my emailed address my number that of Luigi for more information So you can contact us you can send us Email what's up a proposal ideas and then from that moment we can have Also ask an idea to collect all what is happening or what is developing in our villain Then we can continue together finding the right way to to move forward. So we are undergoing Yes, yes on the practical side the soon We got answer if they are there The better because we will structure that we will structure them We will give a proper form and approach Working committee approach the lady secretary the approach whoever Can be is trying to raise funds To see if there is support, but we don't want to use this as a carrot to say hey It's easy money's coming. We everybody will get no far from it because there are already ideas. There are already Streams done, but we would like to put this on the table the more consistent the better Saying hey, this is something which come from the group grassroots. This is something which come from within And that's all this component that is what we hope but we cannot promise the moon because it's not in our hands What I wanted to add to my previous saying is that Ram Narayan We have witnessed our potential our possibilities skills and the values that we have grown with and we have Those things to build the future and give the proper shape, but at this moment what occurs to me you may Excuse me if I say wrongly is that there is a tsunami coming and we are trying to Vacate our houses are clean things are make setups with the cycles so there is a weak force if I have heard our Chairman governing board and the all the letters that are going on. It is a kind of tsunami We have to prepare ourselves. I don't know the strategy I don't I can't say but our actions should be in the otherwise So we will be reacting, but we should be proactive. I think we are perfectly Capable of surviving any tsunami can come because we are united and we can work united Now I have to close our meeting and I Ask Aravinda to to have a chance for us to conclude our meeting in a good attitude Yeah, just one sec I think all of you who has come against The not favorable situation. I think also All the radio and the people Suleyka included Who has given the technical assistance and I don't know the few people on live stream? Who has listener? Who are all on the radio who has take the time the passions and we hope also the compassion? To understand the process we are going through So thank to all of you and our gratitude for those Who continues to believe in our will and who wants the flame to grow? I would read the last hymns of Rig Veda The translation is come together all of you Speak in one voice Know with one mind even like the gods who of your knew with one mind and Together had their share of enjoyment Samanam manha sah chittamesham Samanam mantra mabhimantra yevah Samanenavohavishajuhomi Samani vaakuteh samanahridayanivah Samanam astu ho manu yathavah Susahasati Oh Thank you so much to everyone we close our meeting. Thanks. Thank you
