New Rental
Greetings to any large-hearted landlords / property owners! The Sri Chinmoy Meditation Centre - which offers year round free courses in meditation and has ongoing humanitarian aid projects - is seeking new premises to rent/lease in the central Auckland suburbs. Providing one of Auckland's most popular community spaces, the Centre has taught over 35,000 Aucklanders the art of meditation through its free programs, and also responds to aid projects for children throughout the South Pacific. We'd love to hear from any property owners who would like to discuss rental possibilities. We need about 250 sq m2 or more of space, preferably from Onehunga northwards, to accomodate our public classes and community w/shops .
Our organisation is a non-profit registered Charitable Trust and entirely staffed and funded by volunteers. We're happy to renovate any potential property and would like to additionally have a ground floor retail space to look at opening a small food enterprise. (We opened and ran the Blue Bird vege cafe on Dominion Rd for 22 years). We've excellent references and treat our rental space with great respect and care. For further details, please contact Jogyata Dallas, 022 1887432 or email : jogyata@slingshot.co.nz
Thankyou!!
Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓
In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?
What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
-
36.5% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)

63.5% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
