Vihara Youkta

[Guest guest]

Vihara Youkta, wife of Viktoras Kulvinskas, ascended peacefully, and

gracefully in the company of loved ones on Oct. 16th, 2007.

Ms. Youkta lived the raw food lifestyle for over three decades. She was

a beautiful successful Woman, and very talented accomplished yogini and

dancer. Ms. Vihara, unfortunately neglected to have the symptoms from

which she had been suffering for more than a year diagnosed until her

condition was irreversible. A life of ongoing stress will cause distress

to the body regardless of ones lifestyle. The recent stress of moving to

Costa Rica, and loss of a loved one, exacerbated her condition rapidly.

Like Viktoras, Youkta also survived some extreme abuse and suffering in

her childhood which no doubt took an early toll on her overall well-being.

We celebrate Youkta's life and the fact that it ended in the perfect

divine time. We are reminded that death spares no one.

This is a great loss to the raw food community.

Youkta left behind many devoted students who are carrying on her style

and teachings.

Friends of Youkta can send cards and letters to the family, her son,

Nick and Kim and their daughter Samantha Geraigery, at 1671 Somerset

Ave, Taunton, MA. 02780.

Cards and letters will also reach Viktoras Kuvlinskas at the same

address or email to survival4u <survival4u%40msn.com>.

Contributions can also be sent for the Vihara Youkta Foundation, for the

purposes of continuing her vision of building a school in Costa Rica to

the above address.

A memorial will be held at Garvin Gardens, Hot Springs Arkansas Nov

11th, 11 am.

Her memorial services will be held the week of Feb 18th in Montezuma,

Costa Rica.
