Your jholas have arrived from the ashrams, and we'll be packing them starting Sunday morning.
If you have'nt declared a preference of which ones you want, now's the time!
cheers,

Due to invoicing and international transfer delays, the jholas have yet to be shipped. The problem was located and corrected, and your jholas should be shipped in just a few days. We'll rocket them out to you as soon as they touch ground!
Thank you for your patience, Aa
The jholas are all printed and ready to ship from India. I expect we'll be packing your artist edition jholas up to send within 2 weeks!
We created 533 artist edition jholas, 700 days of work for the ashram, and the balance after expenses goes to Mr Handa to pay teachers who serve poor worker communities around Delhi. This is the real work!
We're creating the means to truly cooperate and make a little difference across worlds of experience and perspective. We're building trust together, and sincere respect between all participants, a special shared dignity that grows into Love.
Because of our project, Google contacted us to print 1500 jholas for their "Computer Science for High School" program. We won't make any money, but it creates an additional 2000 days of work for people the ashram. We all deserve congratulations for getting the ball rolling!
Work on the new book "Other Imaginings" has already begun and you'll be able to see the work as it comes from the ashrams...We'll be posting interesting updates as we go... Stanford University has purchased an advance copy already....!
ONE LOVE,
Aaron
Aditya Kumar recently sent these photos of completed jholas for our project. More are on the way as they work to complete the project before the end of the month. I think we'll be getting them to you in early April!
We'll post more images as they come to us!
