Suresh: Understand your emotions and your points are well-taken. Poonam has a sick mother and a daughter (6 yrs)that she adapted. She is playing many roles at home with $15/month. The cost of her travel, can be well spent, if you help her get a fixed deposit certificate that adds to her monthly income to support her family. I have asked Ismail Bhai to help her get a steady income, so she can get a person at home to care for her family. I also pray that she finds a spiritual person, who helps her emotional healing. She already has inspired many people, but she needs to let go the past and write it as "experience". Past has no future in it. I have asked Ismail Bhai to look into this. Her Mom also need to get a medical check-up, insure medication and meditation so she can look forward for better health and spiritual life. Her mother and Poonam has set some touching examples for people of all regions, faiths, castes, and nationalities. India has 33% population below the poverty line that means per capita income is less that $110. Poonam has 3 people to feed and her per capita income is $60. World's 50% population makes less than $730/year. Bottom 20% population makes less than $365/year. Poonam as a head of family makes $180/year or $60/person/year. That places her in world's 0.01% bottom population. So, it is not a minority issue. It is a global human issue, and UN is addressing it. Look at www.artofliving.org. They provide training for "emotional healing" with Yoga and Meditat
