Seva in Dharamsala
After visiting a ceremony in a small temple in Dharamsala a lot of volunteers formed a real Seva Circle to bring sand and small stones down from the river up to the temple grounds. The volunteers passed a big iron plate filled with sand and stones to each other and dropped it in the middle of their circle. The sand and stones were used for building a new part of the temple. This for two hours in the hot sun while the women were singing shabds (devotional songs). This was so beautiful and emotional. It seemed the women were singing right from their hearts with deep devotion. Taking part in this Seva Circle it was impossible to keep our eyes dry. And it made us feel humble.
