Love in Action: The Dera Eye Camp
A black-and-white photographic book, Love in Action documents every aspect of the 22nd Eye Camp held at Dera Beas in 1989. More than 6,000 patients were treated for cataract and other eye diseases during the camp without regard for religion, caste, colour or other social distinctions. All medical treatment, board, lodging and after-care were provided to every patient, free of charge. The book covers the concern and compassion of the Master for the patients and the love and devotion and high standard of organization and discipline of the doctors and more than 7,000 sevadars. The book also provides information about the medical, technical and humanitarian significance of the camps. It is truly a story of dedication, selfless service and self-sacrifice. |
