INN EVENTS An Enlightening Supermarket Tour, Coop Obs Superstore, November 4 at 09.30 We invite all INN members to an enlightening supermarket tour.

We will also reveal some Norwegian seasonal delicacies that you may be interested to try. A separate invitation will follow.

She is joined on stage by five legendary dancers, ages 58 to 79. They dance to music by Rebekka Karijord, played live on stage.

Her inner journey goes hand in hand with her explorations of the presence of the body in a room, its relation to others, to everything. Her choreographic work is based on meticulous introspection and reflections on human nature. In her more recent works, such as La Traversée (‘the journey’) and La Nuit (‘the night’), the dancers create poetry through repetitive motions in a dim room which is only occasionally lit by a flickering light. A fusion of Sufi-inspired sensuality and meditative expressions create a strong sensation of presence - here and now.

Introduction Kakatiyas- an indigenous Telugu dynasty ruled over the Andhradesa consisting of modern states of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh from 10th century AD to the first quarter of 14th century AD. The name ‘Kakatiya’ is derived from goddess Kakati- a mother goddess Durga, venerated by the dynasty. Gunadya Rashtrakuta was the first known personality of the Kakatiya clan. He was the commander of the Rashtrakuta Krishna II who died in the battlefield while fighting with the Eastern Chalukyas. King Krishna II, very pleased with Gundaya’s loyal service towards him, rewarded Ereya, Gunadya’s son with the governorship of the Korivi region. Kakatiyas were the feudatories of Rashtrakuta kings upto 10th century AD after which they were overthrown by the Kalyana Chalukyas. Kakatiyas then became the feudatories or samanthas of Kalyana Chalukyans. The Kakatiya rulers Beta I (AD 996–1051), Prola I (AD 1052–1076), Beta II (AD 1076–1108), Durgaraja (AD 1108–1116) and Prola II (AD 1116– 1157) served the Kalyana Chalukyas until the collapse of Chalukya empire during Tailapa III’s reign.

  • Contribution of Hindu Women, Amongst Others
    ॐ 1 | P a g e ॐ Inspiring and Unprecedented Initiative In an era of mass consumerism - not only of material goods - but of information, where society continues to be led by dominant and parochial ideas, the struggle to make our stories heard, has been limited. But the tides are slowly turning and is being led by the collaborative strength of empowered Hindu women from within our community. The Covid-19 pandemic has at once forced us to cancel our core programmes - which for decades had brought us together to pursue our mission to develop value-based leaders - but also allowed us the opportunity to collaborate in other, more innovative ways. It gives me immense pride that Hindu Sevika Samiti (UK) have set a new precedent for the trajectory of our work. As a follow up to the successful Mahila Shibirs in 7 vibhags attended by over 500 participants, 342 Mahila sevikas came together to write 411 articles on seven different topics which will be presented in the form of 7 e-books. I am very delighted to launch this collection which explores topics such as: The uniqueness of Bharat, Ramayana, Pandemic and the Hindu way of life, and the Contribution of Hindu women, amongst others. From writing to editing, content checking to proofreading, the entire operation was 2 | P a g e ॐ conducted by our Sevikas. This project has revealed hidden talents of many mahilas in writing essays and articles. We hope that these skills are further encouraged and nurtured to become good writers which our community badly lacks.
