Bianca Muntean
Hello dear All, I would have liked sooooo much to be able to attend this year’s Passover Seder and the Easter Sunrise Service as they are both so close to my heart. I have only just discovered Swami Swaroopananda and the Sivananda Ashram and my heart jumped with joy and certain recognition when the two above mentioned events came up. Sadly I live too far away (in England) and am probably too old (53) to begin ‘the process’… I wondered therefore, if these two events (Swami’s talks) will be filmed and published on your website? Thank you and I look forward to your reply, Shalom, Bianca
