PRESIDENTS MESSAGE

Dear Brothers, Sisters and loving young friends,

Jai Shree Ram!

We had a very busy month of September with programs & activities for our all-round development

BODY, MIND & SOUL!!! Yogiraj Omprakash ji Maharaj and Dr. Sandeep, from Faridabad, India held

a week long Musical Yoga and Meditation Camp in the Mandir Basement. This was a very unique

experience where participants performed the Exercises and Asanas in a fun filled atmosphere,

humming popular Hindi songs/bhajans. People also benefitted from Guru Jis vast knowledge of

Ayurveda, Naturopathy and Healing Tips. Dr. Sandeep, who is an accomplished Doctor &

Physiotherapist helped several Devotees to cure day to day ailments with his massage techniques

and simple exercises. The Camp concluded with an intense session on Meditation and a pure Vedic

Havan performed by Guru Ji for the wellbeing of ALL the members of the HOM Parivar and

Community at large.

We also celebrated the auspicious 9 Days of Navratrey with great Enthusiasm and Joy. HOM is truly

Blessed to have Devotees who sing & dance in praise of Maa Durga during these special Holy Days
