Today, many people are using alternative forms of healing, like ayurveda, yoga, homeopathy, to take care of themselves (instead of resorting to allopathy). We realized that we also need to consider what we eat, what we wear, what we use in our households -- how we live! -- if we are to be healthy in body, mind and spirit. With this in mind, Shikshantar, in partnership with Jan Jagran Vikas Samiti, Sandeep Bordia (city organic farmer), Ganesh Lal Sharma, and other local artisans, decided to put together Udaipur's first organic bazaar. We launched this at the beginning of TV Turnoff Week (April 2005).
