Our Village was adopted under the Village Service Project and courses in accordance with Manavalakkalai Yoga conducted. It has transformed the people and made them physically, mentally and spiritually healthy. People have been awakened spiritually and come to realise that everyone is an equal and the same. I, as President of the Panchayat, and on behalf of all those benefited by the course, thank the functionaries of the World Community Service Center for having helped us in a selfless manne.

I am Duraisamy, a farmer from the village. I used to suffer from chest and hip pain as well as frequent bouts of anger. Manavalakkalai Yoga practices have helped me ward off my anger besides changing my eating habits. My family members also practice physical exercises and meditation. Thank you. Vazhga Valamudan.

Vanakkam. Vazhga Valamudan. “Service to man is service to God”-it was in keeping with this noble sentiment that Manavalakkalai practices, as designed by Vethathiri Maharishi, were introduced in our village for the benefit of Lakshmipuram Jambuliputhur residents, under the Village Service Project of the World Community Service Center. People from the village, who have studied and practiced simplified physical exercises, KayaKalpa, meditation and introspection under the Project have found them beneficial. Practicing them during the last one year hasimproved their ways of thinking. It is a matter of great pleasure that people have begun to live in peace and amity whereby our village has been transformed into a place of peace.

I am 47 years old and have been working as a conductor in the transport department for the last 15 years. Crowds within the bus used to make me nervous, with my hands shivering and unable to issue tickets. I was served with show-cause notices many times, which came in the way of my mental and family peace and deprived me of sleep at night. Visits to psychiatrists and doctors turned to be futile and I was on the verge of applying for voluntary retirement from service. It was around then that I happened to attend classes in Manavalakkalai Yoga after applying for amonth’s leave. I learnt physical exercises and meditation, which I began to practice regularly. I was able to overcome my problems and attend to my duties without trouble. Doctors have informed me that I am physically and mentally fit for which I am happy.

Village Service Project, under the aegis of the World Community Service Center, was introduced in our village by Sri. SKM. Maeilanandhan. Our village has remained free of petty quarrels, unhygienic conditions and loud noises from even the first day of its implementation, with people living in harmony and peace. Number of persons who consume alcohol has come down and awareness camps regarding Dengue fever and AIDS have helped us greatly. A cultural program by the Dharmapuri Kalairani Trust, as well as a program held during the Pongal festival, wherein 175 foreign nationals, with the assistance of the Tamilnadu Tourism Board, participated,and people being taken to Aliyar for a visit are some of the highlights of the course. We express grateful thanks to the functionaries of the World Community Service Center for all this.

I, Pavanraj who am of 61 years age, used to walk with the help of a cane, until recently. I practice physical exercises, designed by Tatvagnani Vethathiri Maharishi, regularly and it has freed me of my dependence on the cane. It has made me immensely happy. Thank you. Vazhga Valamudan.

I live in Thuvarangadu village and work as a driver. I used to consume alcohol regularly. I joined the Manavalakkalai Yoga Courses conducted in our village, and the practices, particularly simplified physical exercises and meditation have helped me overcome my need for alcohol.
