AYUDH Pune ARPAN 2025

AYUDH Pune celebrated Amma's 72nd Birthday by planting 72 trees as part of the 'ARPAN' Project, a special green initiative aimed at transforming barren land into a flourishing mini forest. Inspired by Amma’s message to protect and preserve the planet, the 'ARPAN' Project was first launched by AYUDH Pune on Amma’s 65th birthday in 2018, and this year marked its 8th consecutive year of implementation.

This initiative is a loving tribute to Amma, who has always taught the importance of living in harmony with Nature. Amma Herself transformed Her birthday into a prayer for world peace and universal happiness.

The plantation took place at Banel Hills near the Tukai Devi Mandir, concluding with a devotional Arati, filling the atmosphere with devotion and the spirit of seva. AYUDHians shared that serving Mother Nature brings them immense joy and strength, inspiring them to keep planting and thanked the 'Vasundhara Abhiyan' group for their help with the project implementation.

As Amma says, “Living harmoniously with Nature will in itself bring happiness and contentment.”

Through this initiative, AYUDH Pune shows how collective action can create a greener, more sustainable world for generations to come.

As always, the most loving & meaningful birthday gift to Amma from AYUDH: Nurturing Mother Nature!
