Theos-Talk Archives (February 2008 Message tt00242)

Dear Mkr and all

Mkr you are correct. It is a day celebrated to 
recognise all those in the Adyar Society who 
selflessly gave of themselves to their cause.

Adjacent to the "Great Hall" at the international 
headquarters of the Adyar Society in India is 
placed a small monument dedicated to all those 
workers who have contributed behind the scenes; 
those vital arms, legs and hearts, without which 
the day to day operations, conventions and lecturers 
would not be able to function. 

They are the usually unsung and unheard heroes in 
any organisation or group.

It was by far my wife's and my favourite monument.

Regards
Nigel
