Hello all
Quick update:
April was a busy busy month. I was diverted from the Service on Wheels project to help out with Manav Sadhna's ALL IN ONE project. A project that brought together Hindu and Muslim children post riot to share their views on religious harmony. Over the course of two years the youth produced a play, writing the dialogues and song lyrics. At the end of April, they had a huge show at Tagore Hall with lights, newly composed music and a dance. A youth in the project, Bharat (who was also part of the Ekta team that went to the US in 2002) and I choreographed the dance and I was an actor in the show due to last minute need. We had great great fun and youth are amazing, it you want to see harmony, watch them hen they are just hanging out.
initial part of May was spent catching up on Service on Wheels work before Vartik (rohitkaka's son) got married in Ahmedabad. Now Im out of India for three weeks travelling to Mann Sarovar, Mount Kailash (in Tibet) with my mom. Time to spend some quality moments with nature. Currently in Kathmandu leaving for the Chinese/Tibet border in a day.
Pretty blessed... three major jatras in 11 months; Char Dham, Tirupati/Rameshwaram and now Kailash.
be back in a few weeks to share stories and pictures
love
heena

I've been the jack of all trades and master of none. But as the learned have said - sab sadhe, sab jaye, ek sadhe, sab sadhe. From an engineer and dancer, I've turned into a tabla student and am training to become a professional classical tabla player in a male-dominated field. Through my journey into sound, I seek to know my self.
