Ayudh - Awaken Youth; Unite for Dharma

On the auspicious occasion of Shivaratri, AYUDH Pune undertook a unique journey of devotion and seva by organizing a Shiva Temple Clean-up in the heart of Pune. Inspired by Amma's profound words, "On Shivaratri, along with worshipping Lord Shiva, may we also be able to receive the message he gives us straight into our heart... May Shivaratri give us the inspiration to go from wrong to right, from adharma to Dharma, and from ignorance to knowledge," the event embraced both spiritual reflection and selfless service.

The day began with heartfelt prayers to Lord Shiva, setting a sacred tone for the activities ahead. AYUDHians, filled with enthusiasm and dedication, traveled to the Ghoradeshwar Shiva Temple in Pune to clean the temple and its surroundings as an act of devotion and environmental consciousness.

The temple clean-up honored Lord Shiva while reflecting AYUDH’s core values of service and stewardship. This act of cleaning was not only a physical task but also symbolized the cleansing of the mind and soul, resonating with the transformative energy of Shivaratri.

Through this initiative, AYUDH Pune hopes that their actions will inspire others and create a ripple effect of positivity that extends far beyond the temple grounds, embodying the spirit of Shivaratri and the teachings of Amma.
