SATURDAY MILAN (சனிக்கிழமை சங்கமம்) – 125

We are happy to share the highlights of the 125th week of Saturday Sangamam at VAMA. This week, we celebrated International Meditation Day. Our Art of Living teacher, Mrs. Lakshmi, conducted a meditation session and explained the importance of meditation in bringing peace of mind and relaxation to the body. She also provided practical guidance to the participants.
The session was attended by 40 students from Athrikal School and 68 elders from various places, including VK Puram, Thirumalai Puram, Kalyani Puram, and Alwarkurichy, bringing the total number of participants to over 100.

Due to heavy rains, we did not invite the elders to this week’s Sangamam gathering. Instead 124th week of sangamam we extended our support to those affected by floods in the nearby village of Chettikulam. This area has been severely impacted by the Kadana River flooding, with more than 50 people losing all their essential belongings. They are currently sheltered in the Samuthaya Nala Koodam at Chettikulam.
Upon request from the RI and VAO, VAMA stepped in to support these flood-affected people. As part of our relief efforts, our kitchen team prepared and served meals. We provided sambar sadam and papadam for lunch and idli with sambar and chutney for dinner over the last two days.

Greetings from VAMA Charitable Trust!
Today, we conducted the 121st week of Sangamam at Sailam. Since it is the rainy season, we invited elders only from VK Puram, Thirumalaipuram, Alwarkurichy, and Kalyanipuram. More than 60 elders participated and enjoyed the program in the cool, rainy weather.
The program began with a prayer song sung by the elders. After the prayer, a short exercise session was conducted by Ms. Karthika, a team member. She explained the importance of exercise for elders and demonstrated simple routines to maintain good health.
This was followed by fun activities such as the ball and cup game and a strength-based activity. The elders enthusiastically participated and enjoyed the games.
At 11:00 AM, we served tea and biscuits. After the tea break, Mrs. Vadivoo had a discussion with the elders. The key points of discussion included:
• Their experiences with VAMA over the past 120 weeks.
• How they feel about the friendships and connections they have made.
• Any memorable incidents or inconveniences they have faced.
We received valuable feedback and insights during this session.
Later, Mr. S. Lakshmanan from Ambasamudram and Mr. I. Lakshmanan told stories from the Ramayana and Pattinathar. They spoke about the challenges of life, managing survival needs, and the importance of recognizing the permanent source of peace and happiness in life.
At 1:00 PM, a delicious lunch was served, which included rice, sambar, pumpkin kootu, pachadi, and buttermilk. The elders enjoyed the meal thoroughly.
After lunch, we organized a Pattukku Pattu (song-based game) session. The elders were divided into two teams, and each group competed enthusiastically, singing songs with great energy and spirit.
The gathering concluded with sukku coffee . The elders expressed their heartfelt gratitude to VAMA Charitable Trust for organizing such thoughtful and enjoyable activities, fulfilling their needs during their old age.
