Over 500 volunteers from the Isha Foundation joined the Shramdaan cleanliness initiative on October 1st, 2023, as part of Swachh Bharat, which was launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

As part of the initiative, the volunteers visited tribal and rural villages near the Isha Yoga Center in Coimbatore, with activities focused on cleaning their houses, toilets, and the village streets. In addition to these efforts, drains and other public areas were also cleaned.



The volunteers also conducted an awareness drive to explain the health and environmental benefits of maintaining cleanliness to the villagers.



Furthermore, Isha Volunteers also participated in a marathon at Boluvampatti to amplify the message.



Enthusiastic students from Isha Samskriti and Isha Home School also came together to participate in this noble cause.

Sharing his message on the eve of Swachh Bharat Shramdaan, Sadhguru on social media X shared, “Striving to keep clean our temples, streets, and most importantly, our minds, is a significant step towards reaching the heights of our prosperity.

Attending the campaign, Thiru Sadhanandam, Panchayat President of Ikkarai Boluvampatti said, "Not only on this day, Isha has been consistently supporting our panchayat in the cleanliness activity. People of Isha daily go door-to-door in vehicles to collect garbage. They also do the work of sorting and disposing of bio-degradable and non-biodegradable bags properly and making organic compost from the biodegradable waste.”

“Isha has been carrying this activity for the past five years at their own expense. Having Sadhguru and Isha in our area is a great gift to us.”
