Hi, This is a very pleasant surprise. In South Africa we did not have very much inclusion like this.
Here the roads are impossible to walk particularly in the villages, but at least we have these pleasant surprises from time to time I guess.

Sir, these many medicines also come with braille display example the tablet that I take for liver issues is written in braille and few other medicines also have braille written. Thanks to the technology and importance given to Visually challenged in society.

Greetings yamuna: Hare Krishna! This is most interesting indeed. I have never heard of this company but will surely check them out first thing tomorrow and place an order too. I also plan to leave a review on Amazon featuring my appreciation post purchase. I also encourage others to do the same. As they say, there is strength in numbers. I have always believed that reservations, promotions, special programs and so on for our community are mostly lip service. Only a handful of organizations are performing genuine work like this one.

Hi friends, A few weeks back, my wife bought some shower gel on Amazon. Seemed like an ordinary event and I thought nothing of it. When the package arrived, my eldest son excitedly brought it to me. “Baba! Baba! Come check this out” he exclaimed as he put the bottle into my hands. Not thinking much of it I asked “What is this?” without much examination of the bottle. “sShower gel” he said, still excited. “Feel the bottle”. Somehow I still didn’t catch on, as I fingered lamely around the bottle’s edges. “Ok Nice”, I said. “Go pack this away now”. “No! Feel the face of the bottle. Feel properly.” He insisted. I now knew something was up so with more alertness I carefully examined the face of the bottle. Before I could even figure it out he exclaimed “Braille!” And he was right. Not just that, but both the front face and on the rear face had a whole lot of braille. On the front face across the short side was written in short single lines as follows: Fiama Shower Gel On the opposite face, this time along the length of the bottle was written, again in beautiful braille letters along the length of the bottle this time: Patchouli And macadamia It was uncontracted, no capitalization of letters, the dots felt somewhat faded on the plastic label, but still it was a pleasant surprise indeed. Coming to India I wasn’t sure I would ever see beautiful braille again, here in the village of Vrindavana. Just for this fact I would like to keep buying this product, to simply say thank you for remembering us on the fringes of society, while most others see us as nothing more than disabled people that might at least be able to sing for some handout. We now bought 4 bottles in total for the moment, and every morning I can’t help running my fingers over the braille when I take some out to shower my body. It just feels so warmly familiar. Just wanted to share this small yet heart-warming story of my own personal experience. With kind regards, Yamuna Jivana dasa -- Disclaimer: 1.
