The Shanti Tree Project

The Melbourne committee would like to invite all to participate in a special sponsorship project pertaining to establishing a symbolic Shanti tree. The tree will symbolize the prayer for peace for all beings in the world. It is made locally in Melbourne from recycled-metal and will be featured in the main hall. All funds from this giving tree concept will be directed to the Melbourne ashram development fund.

The Shanti tree will have 54 leaves, and the sponsorship amount for each leaf is $1,000.00. Each sponsor (or his/her nominee) will be entitled to:

  1. Have his/her initials inscribed on a leaf (up to two letters);
  2. A Special Ganesh Homa which will be undertaken at the ashram.
Ganesh Homa

Ganesh HomaFor positive vibrations in the house, when starting new ventures such as a new job, or generally to remove obstacles.

In India it is customary for important events to start with a prayer to Shri Ganesha, as the elephant-faced god is considered the remover of obstacles.
