Ecovillage Bhrugu Aranya Summer Update June 2025 Satsang | Volume 53 #2 | New Era 82

As wildflowers unfurl across the Polish countryside, Ecovillage Bhrugu Aranya welcomes a season of growth, community and creativity. The long-awaited Centre of Light, the Ecovillage’s flagship ecological building, remains under interior construction.

Homa Therapy in our Bio-Garden March / April 2025 Satsang | Volume 52 #7 | New Era 82

When I lived in Piura, due to my job, for two years with my family and my parents, we built a bio-garden during the COVID-19 time. My mother was very involved in this garden. Because there was no garbage collection during that time, we used all the organic waste from the kitchen to make compost, burying it and creating a bio-garden. We added the ash from the Homa fires, in addition to practicing these daily, sometimes in the company of many Agnihotris. At that time, it was very difficult to obtain fresh fruits and vegetables. However, we began to have a wide variety of everything, such as herbs, paico, basil, herbs for seasoning, papayas, caiguas, and passion fruits (beautiful in color and in great abundance), cherry tomatoes, squash, cilantro, aguaymanto, pickled chili peppers, limo chili peppers, cocktail potatoes, purple corn, plums, sugarcane, etc.

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.
