HEALTH FOR THE MARGINALISED
[av_heading heading='LEPROSY ASHRAM' tag='h3' color='' style='' padding='10' av_uid='av-6l9lh' />
Seeing the pitiable plight of lepers in India, Guruji established a leprosy home on 11 November 2004. In this home, there are twenty rooms and over fifty persons have been cured of leprosy while receiving treatment here. Presently, a couple of families are under treatment here. It is pertinent to mention that apart from free stay, food and treatment, the inmates also receive a stipend. Even their children are provided free uniforms, stationery and education. This is a unique institution of its kind. There are also rehabilitated vocationally and amalgamated into the social mainstream. In Santmat or Ruhaniyat (True Spiritualism) it is believe that the Karmic account of a leper is difficult to shoulder spiritually and Guruji makes light of it by saying that it is his duty to serve everyone.
In the words of an inmate,
![LEPROSY ASHRAM](https://derasachasauda.org/assets/uploads/2013/05/6.kushthrogi1-282x300.jpg" width="182" height="151" /><strong><blockquote>"Guruji has showered boundless generosity upon us. Such care and compassion was not even being provided by our families. But Guruji has not only cured us but also provided us with a livelihood. Life is now full of joys."</strong></blockquote>
