It is with great sadness that we have learned of the passing of two of our loved community members Alan and Naomi Scherr who were tragically killed in the recent events at the Oberoi in Mumbai. Our love and support go out to Kia and Alan's family at such a heartbreaking time.
We choose to reflect and remember Alan and Naomi, two beautiful people who brought so much into our lives and who will always remain in our hearts.
Alan and his wife Kia have been integral members of the Synchronicity community for more than a decade since moving to Faber with their young daughter Naomi. Alan committed most of his adult life to meditation, spirituality and conscious living. He was a passionate Vedic astrologer and meditation teacher who inspired many people to begin a journey of self awareness and meditation. He was committed to making a positive difference in the world and devoted himself to the community he lived in.
Naomi was a bright and lively young woman who loved spending time with people and living life to the fullest. She was passionate, if not a little mischievous, and will be fondly remembered by many of us for colorful hair styles and radiant energy.
A site is currently being set up for those who wish to express their love and pay tribute to Alan and Naomi:
www.alanandnaomi.comWe will be holding a memorial service in the future which we will announce in the coming days. In the mean time we ask for the media to allow time for our community to deal with these tragic events before making any further statements.

All other Synchronicity participants who were staying at the Oberoi are accounted for and safe.

Why can't they even name the monsters that committed this atrocity? These weren't just "recent events." These were cold-blooded murders by evil men in the name of the "god". This is an insult to Mr. Scherr and his daughter.
