AYUDH Americas

AYUDH Americas AYUDH is the international youth wing of Embracing the World!

AYUDH Americas, the international youth wing of the non-governmental organization Embracing the World (ETW), empowers younger members of society to work collaboratively in identifying global issues and creating innovative solutions for social service, green initiatives, personal empowerment, and intercultural exchange. Each year we hold a youth summit called The Ripple Effect 2016, a platform for

youth to come together in a series of discussions and workshops lead by renowned leaders of social change, learn how to create and sustain effective change. In 2015, the youth declared climate change, hunger, and education as top priorities, and pledged to plant 500 trees, collect 1,000 pounds of trash, serve 1,008 meals, and save money that often goes to unnecessary items for ETW education funds. Each year AYUDH members from all around the continent come together in a four day long conference, called “The Ripple Effect,” to collaborate on what issues they feel most important today, and find common solutions. We have thirteen chapters that span from Canada to Costa Rica, and we work together during the year to meet these goals collectively.

Here are some highlights from this month’s AYUDH Reflect with Br. Mokashamrita Chaitanya 🪷

This session inspired a deeper discussion of regret - how it stems from our desire to control results rather than our actions. We explored how to move forward by befriending the mind and learning how to navigate through obstacles that may arise 🧭

You cannot control the river but you can learn how to swim 🏊

Stay tuned for more info on the next session!! ✨

Whether we like to or not, we are forced to make countless decisions every day. It may be something as mundane as choosing what to eat for breakfast or something life altering as picking a major or a career. How can we live in the present without regretting our past decisions? What causes us to feel guilty and how can we get out of it?

Join us on Tuesday November 25th at 9 PM ET as Br. Mokshamrita Chaitanya leads us in this reflection. Swamiji is a vibrant and engaging speaker who serves as the National coordinator of AYUDH India. Mokshamrita Ji has a computer science / engineering background making his talks more relatable.
