Clarification! Dear Friends, This is to clarify that AVDZINES at Town Hall will remain as a graphic / print studio. The new project proposal that was published a few weeks back will just be an extension and will mainly be a place to house offset printing, binding, framing and other related works. Avdzines team Revival of Saturday Markets at Solar Kitchen With the main guest season about to start, there is a growing feeling that we should once again start having weekly Saturday Markets outside the Solar Kitchen, commencing around 14th of December and continuing to early March. Anyone interested in this and who would like to have a display table at the market (available from the SK complex or on hire from an outside contractor), should contact us at Prisma, so we can determine how many tables are needed. A small charge is likely to be made to cover overhead costs such as hire of extra tables. (In the event of rain there would be no market that Saturday.)

Aurobindo: The Human Cycle, Life Divine, Bande Mataram, Karmayogin, Letters on himself and Ashram, Foundation of Indian Culture- Renaissance of India, Ideals of Human Unity, War and self determination. Apart from these I am also looking for: Collected works of Raman Maharishi God Talks to Arjuna- Paramhansa Dhampadda- by Osho, 12 Volumes Gita Darshan - by Osho, 8 Volumes Greening of America- Charles A. Reich The Perennial philosophy - Huxley India after Gandhi - Ram Chandra Guha Indian Philosophy Vol 1 & 2 - Radha Krishnan If you have an extra copy of any of these books and are happy to pass it on to me for my research, please let me know. I will keep the circle of giving, going ahead. Thanks, Dr Gaurav Chhabra (Ph: 9787897947, email: medimedia@gmail.com) Material for Meera Youth Camp, We would like to thank again the volunteers who came to help in Meera Youth Camp on last Sunday. We have built a new capsule on our own, with the help of the villagers! This gives us a new room for a volunteer for only 1500rs a month! The volunteer who helped the most to build it is actually staying there, and it gives her a beautiful feeling of achievement. She has built her own house and will give it to the next volunteers who will join the community and help it to become self-sufficient. Now we ask the community of Auroville to keep in mind that this small community on the beach needs help and support. We need: Material to make new houses (kajulinas, pakamaran, leafs, bamboos….) / Staff for the kitchen (mainly pans (big, small, sauce…) plates, glasses, knifes…) / Furniture for the rooms and kitchen (shelves, desks, chairs, mattresses…) / Cycles to be used on Auroville - Anything which can be useful. And please come over to check our projects and see our enthusiasm (especially on Sundays) Michael 9626012318 Thank You so much!
