                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<div><strong>FOR ASHRAM USERS<br />How to post your monthly report:</strong></div>
<div><span> </span></div>
<div><span>1. Once inside the Ashrams section, click on the month you wish to post your report in. (Example, "February Reports Due" and it has a photo of Gita next to it)</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span>2. Once you enter that section, DO NOT click on "reply" to Gita's message located on top of page, unless you want to say something to her directly, and you are welcome to do so. However, <em>Do NOT post your report in her message section</em>.</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div>Instead...</div>
<div><span> </span></div>
<div><span>2. -Scroll all the way to the bottom of page, and after the last person's post you will see a separate section  that</span><span> says, "leave a reply." That is where you want to post.</span></div>
<div><span>    -Do not change "title" (for example: "RE: February 2022 reports due," the title will automatically appear there each month. </span></div>
<div><span>    -Just type or paste your report in the (body text area).</span></div>
<div><span>    -And then click "add reply" on bottom right side of page.</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div>NOTE: to also find you/post/report easier, please type your name on your report at the <span style="color: #ff00ff">*</span>bottom of your report.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Dilara has volunteered to help anyone having issues with the forum, please contact her directly: Dilara Aslandogan <span class="clickable ClickableEmail inactive">dogansky444@gmail.com, and if there are any website/technical issues she will contact TSG and we will get our website tech to resolve it.</span></div>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Dear Group Friends:

I wanted to write to you and re-state our group work on the forum:

We began our daily meditation and monthly reporting on the Forum since the Fall of 2011. Our group has grown since then and our work has had a great and positive impact on our TSG work as well as in our individual lives. 

In writing to you, I wanted you to see and understand and appreciate your individual power and the group power to which you contribute. I know that our work at TSG could not have been successful without the group work to which you have so unselfishly dedicated yourself.

Our group work is completely and totally voluntary. When we do group work, it must be with our whole heart and soul. However, I know that life circumstances do interfere and there are times we cannot keep up with the daily work and monthly reporting. I understand, and I want to provide for all of you the freedom to participate or, temporarily not to do the daily group work if life circumstances demand it. 

<b>If a member is unable, for any reason, to report on the Forum for two consecutive months, his or her name will be removed from the Forum.
However, if a member wishes to re-join the group at any time, you are welcome to do so. We will add your name to the Forum as soon as we hear from you that you wish to re-join.</b>

<strong>Feel free to telephone me or write to me directly at any time. If you have questions, concerns, do not hesitate to contact me on my office email. For a timely response, please be sure to email me directly to my office and not on the Forum. </strong>

Keep up your great work. I absolutely love and cherish every word that each of you writes and thus share a part of your life with all of us. It is an honor to be part of the TSG Ashrams Group life.

With love,
Gita]]></content:encoded>
