New stairs

It was for quite a while that we risked our lives every morning climbing up a very dodgy bamboo ladder to get to the roof every morning. These stairs are a well-welcomed luxury. The roof is now an easily accessible space for yoga, sleeping, drying foods and also provides a nice view of Rajpur village and the lake.

Fresh sugarcane juice for everyone!

Hard work for a cup of juice! The old-school juicer lies just outside the ashram walls, it was bought by the ashram and is free for anyone to use. A good way to bring everyone together and heat us up in the winter. We've seen people from the village try all sorts of ways to get their juice quicker - cows, cars, tractors, bicycles, motorbikes... nothing works better and is more fun that grabbing anyone nearby and running round in circles with your friends. Makes the juice taste better too.
