Pilgrimage of Peace to India

Walk in the footsteps of Mahatma Gandhi,
January 16 - January 31, 2010

A Pilgrimage:

No matter how short the distances and familiar the route you travel on a given day, you can do it as a pilgrim — and no matter how long the journey or how sacred its destination, it is possible to be nothing more than a tourist. We embark on this Pilgrimage to India with a desire to experience the Divine, present in the spirit and work of Gandhi and in the people, culture and land of India.

The Alternatives to these problems lie in reorienting the attitudes of people to simple lifestyles, which are foundations for happy living.

Life-based development, organic farming, indigenous production utilizing the local resources are essential.

Quotes from Gandhi

Prepared by our guide Sri Prasad
“My patriotism is not an exclusive thing. It is all-embracing and I should reject that patriotism which sought to mount upon the distress or exploitation of other nationalities. The conception of my patriotism is nothing if it is not always, in every case without exception, consistent with the broadest good of humanity at large. Not only that, but my religion and my patriotism derived from my religion embraces all life. I want to realize brotherhood or identity with all life, even with such things as crawl upon earth….because we claim descent from the same God, and that being so, all life in whatever form it appears must be essentially one.”

“Organic manure ever enriches, never impoverishes the soil. The daily waste, judiciously composted, returns to the soil in the form of golden manure causing a saving of millions of rupees and increasing manifold, the total yield of grains.”
