Every year, amid much hard work and enthusiasm, the Vancouver satsang's garage sale raises money for Amma's charities. This year a successful garage sale was held on July 8 and 9. While Amma's grace alone is sufficient for her charities, it is a beautiful lesson for those involved in the art of working and pulling together.
Because Tusthi and Prakash's home has a big enough lawn and is in a garage-sale-friendly neighbourhood, that's where it's usually held. We take the opportunity to have Amma flyers and magazines on hand and talk about her work worldwide; Tusthi always keeps us supplied with snacks and drinks; and the atmosphere is fun and festive while a great deal of bargaining goes one way and then another. At the end of the day, both buyers and sellers walk away feeling they each got something good from the day – thanks to Amma's loving grace!
