It was wonderful to visit and spend time with Giridhari and get updated on the project. How do you like the house so far? It´s becoming more beautiful every time we visit!

I remember an important insight our teacher once taught us, what do you see when you look at those trees 🌳 🌳 🌲 🌴 🌳 🌲 ? "They are the extensions, the other half of our lungs 🫁 we inhale what they exhale, they Inhale what we exhale - and they only give, give and give - and we are incomplete without them, they complete us, without trees 🌳 we cannot survive" I never felt more connected to the trees so directly before! Trees give us so much - food, air to breathe, shelter and shadow! Do watch Rajiv Malhotra Infinity Foundation video on "Desert Religions vs Forest Religions" MUST WATCH, its an eye opener 👌

He has understood the true meaning of life and how to live with nature . There are millions of yogis in Himalayan mountains areas , who live with ZERO carbon emissions. In ancient India, yogis during their entire life had not caused even 0.001% of climate change . Intelligent people take initiative to show the path to go back to golden olden days , so that planet earth will again bloom

[@eternalfearless4532]

Yeah, it's very nice life-style. He's SUCH a cool, wise and relaxed guy. I'd love to live like this. Maybe I will soon. Just by the way, I don't not believe that human activity is contributing significantly to climate change. Certainlyt not enough to warrant the ridiculous, extreme restrictions that governments around the world are imposing on their citizens. The theory of Man-Made Climate Change is completely unprovable. And it really is not a problem. Also it is being pushed by mega-rich billionaires who themselves have, according to their own philosophy, HUGE carbon footprints. They fly in private jets everywhere and have multiple huge houses. They are hypocrites who seems to want ALL of us to become poor in the name of saving the planet, but they themselves do nothing, and give up nothing. I don't trust any of the nasty, corrupt, demonic, atheist immoral so-called "leaders" in the world today. They are wrong on many issues, and are proven liars and murderers. Did you know that 20 years ago, they were literally saying that many coastal cities would be under sea-water by now, because of rising sea-levels, due to melting of polar ice-caps, due to increased temperatures? But THAT never happened! Why should we trust these guys? Millions of people worldwide are literally blindly believing something without actually knowing. Plus no public, open, free debate is allowed on the subject, which rings a lot of alarm-bells. Science MEANS debate, and robust, and sometimes heated discussion. But the powers that be want NO discussion or debate on the subject of Man-Made Climate Change theory.

[@JamesErics]

Thank you for following up with the updates on this amazing project. The original question remains unanswered: How does he make out a living? Except for the homegrown veg. produce, every other item he is using has a cost involved, whether it's building materials, bamboo, lime, building services/labor, even the flour for the roti which he is baking, and the oil bottle next to the wood stove. So, would you please request him to share more detail on how he is managing the expenses with day-to-day life and for building the home? What if someone in the family needs unexpected medical treatment? I believe, many people would like to know about it to connect the dots for understanding this lifestyle, reality, and practicality. Pranam ! 🙏

ISKCON pays salary to its full time devotee workers. He probably works in a kitchen or a Gurukul garden and receives a stipend. They deserve it. Because in this day and age you can't survive without some monetary expenses.

[@stop_and_smell_the_roses]

I don't follow Krishna but I was planning on making a Cobb house. It's slightly harder in Canada because the government has strict building codes. But it's the best to insulate against cold and heat, and it cuts into gov electrical gas heating and cooling. So I'm moving to a country where I can build what I want. It's strong against high winds and you could drive a car in it and it would hold up. I noticed that Afghanistan and Northern India have used it before cement. I just watched an Australian guy explain how he grows passion fruit, and use the seeds. A strong trellis holds it overhead so he just walks under and picks. I recently discovered the blessing of comfrey. I watched a few videos on how to dry it and then crush it and let it soak in coconut oil for a few months to let it marinate. The oil has so many uses. I ground powder with water to make a paste and put it a wasp sting, wrap the body part to seal in the paste. Comfrey also makes the best plant fertilizer and animals love to eat it. I crush dried comfrey in water and let it steep, then use it to fertilize plants. I have the variety that spreads but the non spreading is better as you can plant it where you want when you want.
