A fortnight ago we introduced Swaram’s podcasts. Here are the next three interviews: Sudas on centres, Leela on Osho Mystic Rose and Dwabha on her children’s home in Rishikesh.

Saturday 24th October, from 6.30 to 11pm (GMT): free international streaming event as fundraiser for Ramana’s Garden Children’s Home.

As many of our readers know, Prabhavati Dwabha lives near Rishikesh above the Laxman Jhula bridge, where she built and runs an orphanage and the organic restaurant Ramana’s Garden, overlooking the river Ganges, many feet above the water level.
