Namaste HDF,

This request might be a bit of a long shot, but one never knows if one doesn't try.

Regulars here on this forum might know that as far as Hindu gurus go, I follow the guru that leads the Art of Living foundation - H. H. Sri Sri Ravi Shankar. There is an opportunity to take a course/retreat with him later in the month, in Boone, NC, USA.

To deepen my Hindu practice and benefit from this guru's teachings, I wish to be able to attend. The one complication that gets in my way though is financial - normally a course such as this one would be out of my financial reach.

That is why I started an online fundraiser, after hearing similar success stories elsewhere about such fundraisers. I wrote a post about it on my blog, and put a link to my fundraiser in the post:

So take a read, and please let me know what you think. If you have any further suggestions, please let me know that too.
