Q: Trouble with Trigger: wan to update child object field (which update via formula from other object) I'm new with triggers and am having trouble with making one work.
I have a child custom object called "Actividad" which has a formula field "Actor Principal Indicador" that gets updated from its' parent object "Indicador". "Actividad" is also parent for the object "Entidad participante".
What I want my trigger to do is to update a field ("Actor Principal Indicador" - yes, it has the same name as the field in the other object) in "Entidad participante" getting the information from its parent's field "Actor Principal Indicador" (which originally gets its information from the "Indicador" objetc)
Is this possible?
Any help would be appreciated!
This is what I have so far:
trigger ActualizarActorPrincipal on Actividad__c (after update, after insert) {
    Set<ID> IDActividad = new Set<ID>();
    for(Actividad__c A: Trigger.new) {
        List<Actividad__c> ActividadActualizada =
            [SELECT Id, Actor_principal_indicador__c, (Select Id, Actor_principal_indicador__c from Organizaciones_participantes__r)
             FROM Actividad__c
             WHERE Id in :IDActividad];
        List<Entidad_participante__c> EntParticipActualizar =
            new List<Entidad_participante__c>();
        for (Actividad__c AA: ActividadActualizada){
            for(Entidad_participante__c EP : AA.Organizaciones_participantes__r) {
                if(EP.Actor_principal_indicador__c == null)
                    EP.Actor_principal_indicador__c = AA.Actor_principal_indicador__c;
                EntParticipActualizar.add(EP);
            }
            update EntParticipActualizar;
        }
    }
}

A: :)
I think what you would like to do is update the field in the "Entidad Participante" object.
To do that, you would need something like this:
A trigger in your "Indicador" object that will update the field in the "Entidad Participante" object. Because you can't use a formula field on "Entidad Participante" that will reflect the value from the other formula field in "Actividad" (master) object when this parent changes and obviously it changes and this change occurs when Indicator dictates.
Therefore each time that the users create -update a "Indicator" object the formula field in "Actividad" will change and the same way you would like that a field ( non formula field ) changes in "Participate" .
Here is where your trigger should be :  in "Indicator" ( Trigger won't run in a formula change)
In the moment that a record(s) "Indicator" is created-updated the trigger linked will search in database for that "Actividad" record(s) where the relationship contains the  "Indicator" ( current record(s) ) id(s).--> here you will have all the "Actividad" records linkd to the "Indicator" record(s) in changing process.
With "Actividad" Id(s) you will search again and will get all the "Entidad Participante" record(s) related to the "Actividades" --> NOW YOU HAVE ALL THE "Entidad Participante" RECORDS THAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO UPDATE.
SCHEMA:
1.-Indicator record is created - updated
2.-Trigger in indicator runs:
    List actividades = SEARCH ID From Actividad_c where Indicator_c in {current Indicator(s) Id(s)}
    List posibbleEntidadesAActualizar = SEARCH ID, ActorPrincipalIndicador_c FROM EntidadParticipante_c where Id IN {actividad.Id(s)}
Now you have the possibleEntidadesAActualizar and HERE is when you can update them with the values that currently you have in the Indicator.
ANOTHER GOOD FILTER OPTION WHEN SEARCHING FOR "Entidad Participante" could be to directly search for that EntidadesParticipantes that need to be change, what I mean is if you have already the value that will be set  in the "Actor Principal Indicator" field, then use it in the query filters, like : WHERE ID IN :actividadesId AND ActorPrincipalIndicador__c != :newValueinActorPrincipalIndicador
Important! - Don't forget to don't allow the users to modify the ActorPrincipalIndicator__c in "Entidad Participante" as I think it will be only populated depending on "Indicator" :)
Hope it helps Tamara.
Buena Suerte :)
( I'll keep an eye in the comments if I can help further)

A: Your query in the loop is not adviced.
If Entidad is linked to Actidad, why don't you use another formula field in Entidad object ?

Gecko Sex Satellite Loses Control With Russia's Mission Control
By John Virata
Update July 29: The Russians have regained control of the satellite and says that 90 percent of the experiments should be fine. The geckos continue to mate.
A Russian satellite that was launched into orbit last week won't respond to commands from Russia's mission control. Why is this important to reptile lovers, and gecko lovers in particular? Well, the satellite features four female geckos and one male gecko as part of the payload, and Russian biologists are hoping to get more information of the sex lives of geckos in space. While the satellite quit responding to commands, it is still sending data back to mission control, and apparently, the geckos are getting busy.

"The equipment which is working in automatic mode, and in particular the experiment with the geckos is working according to the program," Oleg Voloshin, a spokesman of Russia's Institute of Medico-Biological Problems, told Agence France-Presse.
According to Aljazeera America, the scientists have been able to watch the lizards mating via video, and are hoping that the animals will be fine after the 60 days in space.
On the flip side, British comedian John Oliver has issued a call to Vladimir Putin via #GoGetThoseGeckos imploring Russia's president for life to go get those geckos. He has asked a variety of celebrities, from Patrick Stewart, to Julia Louise Dreyfuss to Richard Branson, to demand Putin to Go Get Those Geckos!
Hopefully the impact of weightlessness on lizard sex will bare fruit for the scientists.

Much like Tottenham, I had momentum and lost it. In the past few years my life has changed with considerable responsibilities owning my time meaning my writing mojo has been erratic. Add to it the drainage of my remaining creative juices, exhausted by the vanity driven demands of social media and the far more fulfilling therapeutic journey undertaken with the podcast, I've been unable to shake free and reclaim the expressive freedom of the past. The past being before everyone had a voice that in the present has rendered most blogs redundant with everyone taking the role of a 'blogger' be it in 140 characters or so.
I'm having another Don Draper moment here.
The satire is rare. The irreverent musings occasionally appearing. There is so much consumption of all things Tottenham Hotspur that I find myself thinking, why bother writing up a review of something that everyone has already seen and discussed a 1000 times unless I can't offer something different. That something 'different' is my personal holy grail.
I need to rediscover my form. Or at least try. I can only do so without the constraints of expectation and editorial regulations.

True self-improvement does not come through self-effort; it comes from dependence upon God—from faith in Him. He allows us to make an effort, but it must be effort made while depending on Him, not effort apart from Him!
When we repent of our sins and accept Jesus as our Lord and Saviour, he then lives in us through the Power of the Holy Spirit. He is there to help, support and to encourage us.
Romans 8:26 says that the Holy Spirit helps us in our weakness. He knows all about our hopes, concerns and our weaknesses, and He wants us to pass them over to Him so that He can give us wisdom in every area of our life.
The Holy Spirit will not shout at us, he will whisper in a still small voice and we need to be still and listen carefully as he speaks to us through his Word and through the Spirit that lives within us.
As Jesus said in John 15:1, "I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinedresser." Verse 4 says, "No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me." We can only grow in our Spiritual lives when we are connected to the true vine, Jesus Christ!
Thank you for sending Jesus to pay the price of our sins, Heavenly Father, and give us the strength we need to live a life that is pleasing to you.

Philippe Starck designs "phantasmagoric" hotel topped with a house for Metz
Tom Ravenscroft | 16 March 2018 Leave a comment
Philippe Starck has revealed plans to build a 14-storey hotel in the French city of Metz, with an 18th-century-style house on the roof.
The French designer was commissioned to design the "habitable, surreal and poetic work of art" by the Hilton Group, to operate under the Curio Collection brand.
In an arrangement that Starck describes as phantasmagoric, a traditional regional home will be placed on top of a monolithic and monochromatic hotel tower containing 119 rooms and suites.
"This project is an out-of-scale phantasmagoric architecture. It's a game about uprooted roots, a symbolic construction of Lorraine", said Starck.
The house, which will contain a "poetic restaurant and lounge bar", will be surrounded by a rooftop terrace and garden.
Centre Pompidou-Metz by Shigeru Ban
Designed to resonate with the nearby Centre Pompidou Metz, designed by Shigeru Ban and Jean de Gastines, the hotel will be located in Metz's recently developed Quartier de l'Amphitheatre.
"Metz is going through a revival," said Dominique Gros, mayor of Metz. "The opening of the Centre Pompidou Metz and the wider Quartier de l'Amphitheatre redevelopment is attracting investment and drawing household names such as Philippe Starck and Curio Collection by Hilton."
"It's great to see projects of this caliber come to Metz and there are exciting times ahead for the city," he added.
Patrick Fitzgibbon, senior vice president, development EMEA at Hilton added: "Maison Heler Metz is a unique property, the design of which perfectly captures the spirit of our hand-picked Curio Collection."
"This will be Metz's first upper upscale hotel in a number of years, and an impressive addition to our portfolio in France, which continues to be the most visited country in the world."
Starck, who ranked at 64th on Dezeen Hot List 2017, is known for his imaginative approach to architecture and design. Recent projects include the interiors of a plant-covered hotel in São Paulo, a power dock for Bentley's first hybrid car and the medals for the 2024 Olympics in Paris.
But he won't be the first designer to top a tower block with a house – the same approach was employed by British studio FAT, with its Community In A Cube project in Middlesborough.

Charming Doodle...sew it, build it!: Happy Birthday to Me...and a present for you!
Happy Birthday to Me...and a present for you!
Today is my birthday! I'm feeling old-ish now but won't turn down a day of fun and gifts just because I don't want to admit to the fact that I'm getting older. And today I want to spread the birthday fun to YOU too! I will be having a flash sale on the patterns in my shop! I was born at 2:17am (many, many years ago) but since I'll be sleeping at that time I will begin the sale at 2:17pm (Central Standard Time) and it will run for one hour. Use the code BDAY to get 50% off any or all of my patterns.
One of my favorite birthdays in recent memories was when I was dating my husband. I went and had a little birthday mini-spa day while my boyfriend (now my husband) went to my apartment and filled the ENTIRE main room with balloons.
Hundreds of them! Everywhere! He rented a helium tank and blew up balloons until they filled every inch of the ceiling. It was really fun to see them over the following hours and days as each balloon slowly lost helium and floated to the ground. Then the floor of my apartment was covered! SO fun! A totally memorable birthday.
Great memories like that are better than presents, aren't they? But presents are fun too! My kids constantly talk about their 'birthday lists' and add new gift ideas to it all year long. I, on the other hand, did not get my mind in gear quickly enough to put together a birthday list so my husband could get something for me that I actually want.
And something sewing related, of course. I've heard so many great things about Ottobre magazine. I'd love a subscription.
There are other things I'd love too (like a new laundry room) but they're bigger and more expensive. Although the laundry room is getting closer...maybe it will be done in time to be my Mother's Day gift this year!
What's your favorite birthday memory or gift you've received?
Joyeux Anniversaire!! hope you have a fabulous day!!

Have you ever wished to use translations in your front-end code (like Vue.js) same Laravel translations you use on the back-end?
It works out of the box with packages like vue-i18n or with a few configurations with the popular i18next.
In your app.js file, just add the following import.
"failed": "These credentials do not match our records."
"failed": "Estas credenciales no coinciden con nuestros registros."
And so on, with all your languages and all your translation strings.
There are choices for loading either just PHP or JSON translations files, as well to add a namespace between the lang keys and the actual translations that some packages require. You can examine the different loading options on the readme of the project. And please fill an issue if you have any troubles or suggestions.
Notice you can directly pass the languageBundle object as a parameter into the VueI18n constructor.


As moms, most of us have the ultimate goal of raising kids who are independent and make the right choices, but it's tough. I know I grapple with how to help my young kids make good decisions, and what the right line is between guiding them and being too controlling.
Our role is defined by helping our children determine right from wrong, and make the right choices when faced with options. Many of the decisions our kids make in their lives will determine the outcome of their life, and the path they take, so arguably decision-making is one of the most crucial skills we can provide our kids with.
I feel like as parents, it's easy to think that what we do has no effect, but one example of ways it does is the decline in cigarette smoking by teens. While some of this reduction has to do with the introduction of alternatives like vaping, it's also likely because of the focus we as parents have put on teaching our kids from an early age the importance of not smoking cigarettes. What we say does matter, even when we feel like it doesn't.
The following are some of the ways I'm personally working on helping my children make the right decisions, now and hopefully over the long-term and later in their lives as well.
It sounds cliché, but our kids are watching what we're doing as their mothers. They build their very first decision-making skills around what they see us doing. Observation is such a pivotal part of our kids' development, and it's vital we model the behaviors and values we want them to see. It's tough to always do the right thing, but I think about the little eyes that are on me even when I don't realize it.
It's tempting to make all of the choices for our kids, particularly when they're little, but we can better equip them for life by letting them make some choices in my opinion.
For example, with your toddler, you can start very small by letting them choose their clothes once a week. Empower them to do things on their own, and continue that trend as they get older.
Decision-making is about developing the right skills and then using them effectively. Even when your children are toddlers, you can help them develop these skills by highlighting the options available to them, and showing them how to evaluate each option and ultimately choose the right one.
As your child's reasoning skills develop, as will their ability to more critically think about the decisions they're faced with.
If you raise your child with no options when they're younger, it's going to be much tougher for them when they do have options from what I've seen in my personal experience.
Decisions have consequences, and a good way to emphasize this as a mom is to ask your kids about their decisions and how they think they impacted others.
I try to create a dialogue with my kids. It can be as simple as asking them whether they're happy with the decision they made for their snack. If they make poor decisions, such as hitting a sibling or throwing a tantrum, I might ask a few short questions about how that might have impacted others.
Of course, you don't want to bog a young child down with too much conversation, but just get them thinking a bit.
It's always been my experience that the more you're able to let your kids guide their lives from a young age, within reason of course, the happier you're going to be with their decisions as they get older.
I'm a single mother of 3 trying to stay sane. I love to write, eat at burger joints, and read stories to my children.

(Reuters Health) - Fathers' use of antidepressant medications around the time mothers become pregnant does not increase babies' risk of preterm birth, birth defects, autism or intellectual disability, according to a study in the BMJ.
Sandin and colleagues studied 170,508 Swedish children who were conceived between 2005 and 2007. The team tracked the children's outcomes through December 31, 2014 using the Swedish Medical Birth Register and the Swedish National Patient Register. They also used the Swedish Prescribed Drug Register to identify fathers who filled prescriptions of antidepressant drugs around the time of conception and after a child was conceived, as well as fathers who did not take any antidepressants.
Dr. Anna Sara Oberg of the department of Medical Epidemiology & Biostatistics at the Karolinska Institutet in Sweden said she and fellow researchers published a similar analysis of the same data focused on maternal antidepressant usage in the Journal of the American Medical Association last year. She said the new findings support previous research indicating that underlying conditions and patient characteristics - rather than antidepressant medication itself - may influence the risk of neurodevelopmental disorders in children. Ideally, she said, the new study would have tracked the outcomes of children past the age of 8 or 9, since some children may not receive a diagnosis by that age.
"As a result, these findings may target the more manifest and/or severe cases," she wrote in an email to Reuters.
Dr. Sonia Hernandez-Díaz, a professor of epidemiology at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, said that there had been "no real concern in the scientific community about paternal exposure." She said that, for years, studies had implied a possible connection between maternal use of antidepressants and the development of neurodevelopmental or mood disorders in children. An increasing body of evidence shows that it is likely not these medications, but, rather, the mental disorders that led the mothers to take the medications - or associated environmental or genetic factors - that increases babies' risks for these problems.

ICE launches investigation after data of more than 6,000 immigrants exposed
The probe is being led by the agency's Office of Professional Responsibility and Office of the Chief Information Officer.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement has launched an investigation after a spreadsheet containing personally identifiable information of 6,252 immigrants seeking protection in the U.S. was inadvertently uploaded to a public-facing website on Monday.
The internal probe is being led by the agency's Office of Professional Responsibility and Office of the Chief Information Officer, FedScoop has learned.
As part of the investigation, ICE will analyze IP addresses to establish which entities may have accessed the PII while it was publicly available, and issue "claw-back" letters instructing individuals and organizations to destroy any files they may have retained.
The remedial action comes after details including names, nationalities and locations were accidentally uploaded to the agency's website.
The data disclosure may have directly placed immigrants at risk of retaliation from the individuals, gangs and governments they are fleeing, according to the Los Angeles Times, which first reported details of the incident.
All of the immigrants affected by the data disclosure are currently in ICE custody.
An Excel spreadsheet containing the names and A-numbers of 6,252 non-U.S. citizens seeking protection in the U.S. was uploaded to ICE's website at 9:45 a.m. EST on Monday.
Four hours later at 1:53 p.m., ICE was notified by nonprofit Human Rights First that PII had been uploaded to its website, and the file was deleted by 2:04 p.m.
Federal regulations generally make it illegal for such data disclosure without permission from top officials in the Department of Homeland Security because personal information of asylum seekers is supposed to be kept confidential.
In a statement to FedScoop, ICE said: "On November 28, 2022, while performing routine updates, a document was erroneously posted to ICE.gov for approximately five hours that included names and other personally identifiable information, along with immigration information, of approximately 6,000 noncitizens in ICE custody."
They added: "Upon notification, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement took swift action to immediately rectify the error. Though unintentional, this release of information is a breach of policy and the agency is investigating the incident and taking all corrective actions necessary. ICE is notifying noncitizens impacted by the disclosure."
Following the data disclosure, ICE is reviewing policies, practices and technologies to reduce the risk of future improper disclosure of information.

A panicking man who fled from police while still handcuffed later had both his hands "chopped off" with a fearsome machete in a gruesome attack.
He claimed that he was subjected to the horrific injuries after a case of mistaken identity but was still living in fear of reprisals, a court heard.
Jeffrey King, 41, of Scunthorpe, admitted escaping from lawful custody on July 30.
Stephen Robinson, prosecuting, told Grimsby Crown Court that police were called to a report of two men behaving suspiciously in a vehicle in Scunthorpe.
They were in the back seats and King seemed to be dazed from drugs.
Police knocked on a window and took the keys from the ignition.
King was arrested and placed in handcuffs. He was put in the back of a police vehicle. The other man ran off.
King opened the police car's door and ran away while still in the handcuffs.
He was not arrested until August 24 when he was in the street and was heading towards his mother's home.
He had slipped off the handcuffs and thrown them away.
Antony Farrell, mitigating, said the escape was a stupid mistake after King panicked and ran off when his friend fled.
He said the other man "had good reason" to run off because he was wanted on a warrant at the time and had since been jailed for a third-strike burglary.
King was later the victim of a vicious machete attack and "almost lost both his arms" because of it.
King, a heroin user, told the court: "Both hands were chopped off."
He insisted it was nothing to do with a drugs debt and claimed that it was a case of mistaken identity.
He feared further reprisals because of the incident.
"I just want my life back," he said.
He did not turn up to court on two previous occasions because he claimed that he was frightened that people might be waiting for him there.
Mr Farrell said that the man who attacked King was in prison and that, if King were jailed, he would end up in the same prison with the other man, a well-known offender.
Because of this, King was given a one-year conditional discharge and his earlier post-licence supervision will continue.


Having an oversized wall calendar is a perfect method to stay organized and a lot of companies, educational facilities and even households have started using it for this reason. Life can swiftly turn chaotic (considering there are many different occasions occurring inside a household) without having a planner. Getting yourself an Oversize Planner 2018 will not only help you remain in charge of the occasions that are happening in your lives, but you may also find it very simple and enjoyable to do.
The Oversize Planner which is a dry erase wall calender has blocks like what you see on traditional calendars only you have to write down the months, days of the week, dates, and any important notes that must be written down. You should only use a dry erase pen with your Oversize Planner. One member of the family can use a different color from the others as they come in different shades. Colors that really standout, like the bright ones, are great.
Household with small children might have fun using stickers in a variety of styles on the planners.
Where you place you planner is very important because its primary objective is to update each member of the family of the occasions and important dates. Planners vary in size and depending on the size you choose, they can be positioned anywhere around the house. Having magnetic refrigerator calendars for all family members to access and make changes to as they start their day everyday would be a good choice. There should also be a magnetic dry erase pen.
An Oversize Planner is exceptionally easy to maintain as opposed to the traditional chalk board. The writings on both the white board and the chalk board can be wiped off but the advantage of having the white board is it is easier with no dust and less traces of writing. Keeping the Oversize Planners as white and bright as possible can be done easily with just a once-a-month intensive cleaning. To do it, you can either pour a water and vinegar solution in a spray bottle or just purchase a cleaning product. Rubbing a piece of fabric or paper towel on the board after the solution or product is applied, should clear any left markings on it.
A lot of advantages are being offered by Oversize Planner to households fighting to be organized, but it does not keep any data permanently. Wipe off a note on the board and it will be gone. The calendar must be located where young children cannot access it. Secure a personal planner also as backup in keeping all the information like important occasions and dates.

Dr. A. T. Ariyaratne
A. T. Ariyaratne stood before a group of villagers in Sri Lanka. They were in despair: their irrigation system was in shambles and the government had ignored their pleas for help. For years, they had gone without enough water for their animals, their crops and their children. Now they could wait no longer. Their village was dying and they needed a miracle.
Ari knew that only by working together could they create one. To teach them a lesson, he asked the villagers a few simple questions: "Who can feed one person by sharing his meal with another?" One by one, several hands went up. "Who can feed two, three or four?" A few more hands went up. Gathering materials in the same way, Ari organized a work camp for the villagers to repair their own water system, save their village and begin to make history.
In 1958, Ari had the idea of bringing his upper-caste high school students to remote poverty-stricken villages to help rebuild them. For two weeks, these privileged young people lived and worked side-by-side with people of the lower caste. They learned practical skills while developing compassion for their fellow countrymen and acquiring a broader perspective of the world. These two weeks made a lasting impression on both the students and the villagers.
From these work camps, Ari began a national movement, a crusade. He called it, Sarvodaya, a term Gandhi used for "awakening of all," – starting first by awakening individuals, then local communities, then the world. Ari wove Gandhian and Buddhist principles together to create a powerful volunteer service and grassroots human development organization and created the shramadanas (work camps) as "gifts of labor."
As a child growing up in a tiny Sri Lankan village, Patrick Mendis had heard stories about this small man with a large spirit. By 1972, everyone in every village in Sri Lanka knew about the good works of the Sara.
Since the government was ignoring the needs of small villages, the Sarvodaya was the only hope for the "little people" of Sri Lanka . Patrick says, "When we heard that the Sarvodaya was coming to our small village in Polonnaruwa, we were ecstatic! It was like Santa Claus was coming home. We'd ask ourselves, "Is it really going to happen in our village? It gave us hope, because we knew now things would get changed for better."
Patrick was only 12 years old, one of the youngest of thirty young boys who participated in a one-day shramadana. Since he had been left by his parents as an infant and raised by his grandparents, he'd always struggled with feeling like an outsider. Here he was the only Christian in a group of Buddhists. To his surprise, they welcomed him warmly, ignoring their cultural and religious differences. "Everyone called each other Malli or 'brother,' not by the names," he says. "We lived as brothers in one big family, we shared and treated each other as equals."
These thirty youngsters spent one whole day together, making their village beautiful — planting gardens, digging latrines, connecting the village's road to the main highway. They had fun working together, happily and enthusiastically. "We didn't have a plan, a design or a blueprint," Patrick says. "After we talked about our ideas and what we'd like to see in our village, a leader emerged from among us and worked together until we got it right. We started the day with a Buddhist chant, a loving-kindness meditation and finished with a meal. From early morning until late at night, everyone worked together to improve life in the village. At the end of the day, everyone was jubilant," Patrick says. "We'd built more than roads, we had built a family, a community and a new sense of spirit in our village."
"We planted seeds that day that grew for many years," Patrick says. This sense of oneness as a village family lasted for a long time. Uplifted by seeing their village transformed, they gained self-confidence in their ability to improve their lives. "When things needed to get done, we'd talk, figure it out and work on projects together," he says.
Patrick's own inner awakening started connecting him to the larger 'family of man.' The seeds planted that day left an indelible mark on his soul.
A few years later, Patrick left Sri Lanka for the United States on with an education scholarship. He was fortunate to study at the best American universities, learn from great teachers and leaders, work at the best organizations and companies and receive many honors and awards. He became an accomplished researcher and teacher of international development and foreign affairs. He had a wonderful wife, two beautiful children and a good life in Minnesota . But something was missing. In the back of his mind, he kept thinking about that special day from his childhood.
One day, he started writing about the Sarvodaya, publishing articles and even a book about this practice. "What is happening to me?" he wondered. There were other books he was supposed to be writing, but memories of his experience with theshramadana just kept coming back to him and wouldn't let go. Finally, he decided it was time to write to Ari and re-introduce himself.
By 1995, the Sarvodaya had become well known as the world's largest volunteer movement. Over seven million people, almost half of Sri Lanka 's population, were working together to improve over 11,000 villages throughout the country. They had 100 coordinating centers, each serving the needs of 20-30 villages, implementing programs in education, health care, transportation, agriculture and technologically appropriate energies like windmills and methane generators. In one year,Sarvodaya built three times as many roads as the government had, linking many underdeveloped villages for the first time with the outside world.
Ari was pleased to hear from Patrick and invited him to come home for a visit, as his guest. It would be Patrick's first visit to Sarvodaya in over 25 years. He was a bit nervous and very curious. "When I arrived at Ari's house, he bowed his head to me," Patrick said. "I was shocked. I thought I should be bowing to him. Then Ari put his hands together and called me 'Malli,' or brother, and told me to call him 'Ayya,' or Big Brother." "This is our home — it is always open to you," Ari told Patrick. "Here, we are one family." Patrick felt that same wonderful connection that he had when he was a twelve-year-old poor village boy.
One day, Ari asked Patrick to join him at a Sarvodaya family gathering. There, people would talk about their village's problems and share their ideas about how to make things better. When they arrived, Patrick was invited to come up to the podium. When he was introduced, he was nervous — and embarrassed. He hadn't spoken his native Sinhalese for many years. You can speak any language you want," he was told, "we will translate."
"This is our guest, Dr. Patrick Mendis from the United States ," Ari told the people who were gathered. "He is from Polonnaruwa. A long time ago, he worked in the Saravodya." As Patrick stood to address them, he told the expectant crowd, "I really came to learn from you." He told them of his experience as a young boy at the shramadana and how his life had been changed by the sense of connection that he experienced in just one very special day. "Saravodya awakens young people like you and me, who then awaken their families, their communities, and then the entire world," he said. "But the awakening must start first with each of us."
Everyone loved hearing Patrick speak, even though he mixed up the two languages. Some wanted to shake his hand. Others wanted to know how he got to America . "They thought I was a 'big shot,'" Patrick says. "They wondered how I could end up in the United States coming from a tiny village in Sri Lanka. They wanted to know my secret."
Patrick told the villagers that the secret was there for them, right in their own soul and in their own village. And that coming to America wasn't the key to happiness. Smiling, he reminded them of the Sarvodaya saying, "We build the road and the road builds us."
We must be the change we wish to see in the world – Mahatma Gandhi
Call to Action: If you would like to create an awakening in your life, come experience a Shramadana work camp at theSarvodaya in Sri Lanka . Visit Sarvodaya at www.sarvodaya.org.
