Dear Brothers
Greetings from TOS India
We are all cooperating with regulations to discipline ourselves by stay at home during this period of lockdown time.
Our deepest brotherhood enquires to all over the globe who are undergoing difficult time with the COVID19 19 situation causing immense misery in several lives.
Many people want to do service in this crucial period to support the suffering. But due to the lockdown situation we are helpless to reach out widely. However individually one can do best possible by adopting a family or giving basic requirements to the neighbours in need. This is the time many people are showing kindness towards immediate neighbouring suffering community by responding with in limited capacity observing safety precautions.
By using the services of permitted volunteers and by taking permission some TOS groups are distributing groceries and food.
On 9th of this month from our TOS India Varanasi Bank account Rs.200000 was transferred to PM CARES fund SBI bank account for relief work.
Kindly continue by the stay at home with the spread of compassion and peace around us. We are enriching ourselves with more humanitarian approach to life than our ignorance in the past towards the path of materialistic attractions.
This is the time to express our theosophical learning in the practical life.
Look forward to your valuable suggestions for meeting the needs of those who are suffering.
All TOS regional Presidents and Secretaries
