Golden Ratio Agnihotra Farm–Sacred Fire and Sanctuary
Lee and Frits Ringma
New South Wales, Australia
In the rolling green hills of Little Akaloa, South Island, New Zealand, where the land itself seems to hum with life, three brothers—Remy, Jean, and Kieran— along with the rest of the Family as well as friends have dedicated their lives to a profound mission: restoring harmony between nature, animals, and humanity. Inspired by the ancient Vedic practice of Agnihotra and guided by wisdom passed down from their grandfather, their farm, Golden Ratio, stands as a testament to the healing power of Fire, soil, and devotion.
Golden Ratio’s journey began on land dominated by heavy clay soil—seemingly lifeless, resistant to growth. Yet, within just three years of incorporating Agnihotra ash, cow dung, and Agnihotra-related farming techniques, the soil transformed into a thriving ecosystem.
Today, an unmistakable green radiance spreads across their land, a visible contrast to the surrounding areas. This alchemical shift is not mere coincidence; it is the result of ancient wisdom in action. Agnihotra, a Vedic healing Fire performed precisely at sunrise and sunset, generates a subtle but powerful healing effect on the atmosphere. Scientific studies have documented its ability to neutralize pollutants, increase soil fertility, and even promote plant resilience. Through the brothers’ dedicated practice, the farm has become a living proof of Agnihotra’s regenerative power.
Golden Ratio shares this knowledge through seminars, Agnihotra gatherings, and courses throughout New Zealand, empowering others to integrate Agnihotra into their own lives. Many who have joined their gatherings have reported profound benefits—some experiencing mental clarity, others deepening their spiritual connection, and many witnessing tangible improvements in their surroundings.
The Sacred Bond with Cows: Keepers of Harmony
Central to Golden Ratio’s work is their deep reverence for cows—beings regarded as guardians of cosmic balance in many traditions. Their journey began with the rescue of three cows, who, to their surprise, were all pregnant. From that first act of compassion, a growing herd emerged, each cow a cherished member of the family.
Beyond companionship, the cows play an essential role in the farm’s ecological balance. Their dung, rich in microbial life, is a key ingredient in soil regeneration and Agnihotra
practices. Golden Ratio provides dried cow dung patties, ensuring others can access this vital element for their own Agnihotra practice.
A Vision for the Future: Service to Nature
Golden Ratio is more than a farm—it is a living temple of restoration and transformation. Inspired by renowned Agnihotra centers such as Homa-Hof Heiligenberg in Germany and Om Shree Dham in Australia, the brothers carry forward a vision where humans step
into their rightful role as caretakers of the Earth. In a time where the planet calls out for healing, Golden Ratio stands as a beacon of hope, proving that ancient wisdom holds the keys to a vibrant, regenerative future.
