Fund Support For - Iyer Shelter
To support Iyer ji, please visit our CROWDFUNDING CAMPAIGN:
https://milaap.org/fundraisers/support-dr-shyamraj-iyer
Dr Iyer’s Animal Shelter is situated at Dalonda, Thane and caters to 100+ animals. All the animals over here are rescued (some from slaughterhouses) and include dogs, cats, rabbits, goats, ducks, turkeys and hens.
Dr Shyamraj Iyer, a homoeopathic doctor by profession, has been independently and singlehandedly caring for these animals for the past 18 years. Even today he is still the only one who looks after the animals at the shelter and lives alone without any other full-time assistance. The animals are vulnerable to being picked up by locals who have even at times tried to poison them. This happens because the boundary walls aren’t secured with any fences. The goal of this fundraising campaign is to help address the multiple challenges Iyer Ji is currently facing.
We seek to raise funds directly to Iyer Ji’s account for urgent developmental costs and also to support him on a monthly basis for food, medicines and other supplies. Details for which are mentioned at 03:17 in the video.
Iyer’s Animal Shelter is counting on you for support.

Interview with Dr Rupa Shah (MBBS)
A few days ago I got the chance to meet and interview Dr Rupa Shah.
She is not only a doctor (practising for over 35 years) by profession who treats her patients with a whole-food plant-based diet but also helps tens of thousands of people change their lifestyle habits which indirectly saves animals and our environment as well.
She has achieved all this in her unique way - through her books, through The AhimsaFest 2018, through vegan cooking workshops, etc. -

Is veganism a western concept?
The philosophy of love and compassion can be expressed in many ways but the content that is being emphasised is always the same: we need to live with kindness in our thoughts, words and actions.
We do not have to stick to the words, we just have to understand its deeper meaning. -
