Dear, dear People,
I'm at the Dreaming Tree, a wonderful rooftop restaurant in Tiru that has become my favorite place to work. So I'm overindulging, gaining weight, loving it, as I write this Report.

Namaste' dear People. Good morning!
It's morning here and the hot season is winding down. Nights and early mornings are comfortable, tho' it does get close to 100 degrees midafternoon.
Our Precious Ones still cluster around the eight air coolers in the Shelter. Mornings, they're starting to get pretty…
Good Morning Dear People,
Yes, it’s morning as I start. Actually, I’m fond of the beautiful Indian greeting, ”Namaste’”—"I bow to your Innermost Self"...So..."Namaste".
In the West we don’t have stray dogs. In India, it is an enormous problem, and they can suffer, deeply.
Early 2006, after forty years of Municipal…

Namaste' dear People,
This is the beautiful Indian greeting esoterically meaning, “I bow to your Innermost Self.”
It has been a good time-a time of effort and struggle. The Precious Ones, the animals, deal with such difficult karma…Indifference. Disregard for the sanctity of their lives. Outright malevolence. The absence of…
Yes! Dear People,
It was a long, long day. Got up at 4am. Got home at 8:30pm. But it was a sensational day, a deeply moving day, a humbling day. I took a little nap at 10:30pm, got up intending to shortly go back to bed...But then I saw it, "a gentle reminder" email from GlobalGiving that our next Report was due on the 19th...In seven…
Dear, dear People,
Before beginning…Thank you for the caring. Thank you for the support. Thank you for giving ;us the energy to go on.
A lot of our Work has to do with lifting the karma of the animals. They are faced with such a heavy load. Indifference—Political. Bureaucratic. General…Outright cruelty...And on and on. A lot of…
Namaste' dear People,
I wasn't going to write a report for several weeks, but came across a beautiful story from a number of years ago and wanted to share it with you. If there's any one word that describes our Work, it's HEART. And in this report I want to give you a sense of it. Om Namah Shivaya.
The story is about a gentle, gentle cow…
Hello Dear People,
It's mid-morning. Tiruvannamalai. I'm sitting in the Geman Bakery. Healthy food. "Killer" baked goods.
Got to sleep late last night. Just as I was starting on my "night feeding run"(I feed 20 to 30 dogs--Pedigree/hard baked biscuits,specially made--anywhere from a snack to a light meal, depending) on my Honda Activa, my…
Om Namah Shivaya, dear People,
The esoteric meaning is I bow to my Innermost Self. I learned that from my Guru.
He used to come out each evening (Remember…I’m an “old guy”…So that was a l-o-o-n-g time ago) and say, “I welcome you all with all my Heart…That is my most important worship…To welcome another human being with love”. It felt…
