Ahimsa & Compassion are helping me because non - violence between me and my siblings is better and when somebody gets hurt, I have more compassion with them soon.

We joined “North Orange County Face Masks for First Responders” . I and my wife made more than 1200 fabric face masks for the group in the last four months. Our Group has donated more than 70000 masks so far. One member of our group drove from California to Utah to deliver 650 masks to Indian Nation. He did not have proper address for this Indian Tribe. He stopped at a 7-11 store and the store took the responsibility to reach out to the right people. He got a thank you note from the tribe later. - * Brea, CA - Age: 65+

I heard several stories of people helping others in this pandemic. One story which touched me is about the Indian actor Sonu Sood who helped thousands of migrant who were stuck in Maharashtra and elsewhere in India get back to their native place safely. He and his team selflessly transported several thousand of them to their home town without looking at their background, fed them and provided them shelter. His philanthropic work is exemplary.

Some fun and creative activities for me mostly includes music related ventures. Me and my brother have been trying to figure out and compose multiple songs and more. It’s a great experience and something I would definitely recommend.
