AN ORGANIC FARM IN INDIA: Manure, Life and the Bio-fuel Miracle of the Cow

I didn't actually know how the bio-fuel system worked, and I still don't, but I know a little more. Visiting this farm as a homestay was a grand experience in India. It also helped me understand the common sense of how and why, among a largely vegetarian populace, the cow came to be considered sacred. She is a profound symbol and means of sustainability, when treated with love and intelligence. At the very least she would have been, and may still be, vital. We also visited a small organic farm-based community at the end of our trip, Navadarshanam, which was gorgeous and slow, and the people lovely.

The stunning music from Brijesh and Vivek is something I witnessed at a Christmas Eve concert in Fort Cochin, with, shockingly, only about twelve other people. It was jaw-dropping and inspiring I left the theatre in a heightened state of joy and wonder.

You're pretty cool.

Yeah, it is wonderfully...in balance, in a certain way. To think sweetly of the Earth just feels honouring of this extraordinary planet who inconceivably sustains us.

This is definitely the trend of the future. Organic farming with bio-fuels is the only way to go.

0:13 If you stop it perfectly, the little sista on the bike is smiling at the camera :) The Original Man and Woman, with their culture intact, are so friendly...Maybe we need to start farming.

@jacoboDrew I don't know...Like these brothers and sisters in the video, I too, am Black...And I love Free-Enterprise...Nothing wrong with Capitalism...You have to be careful and not come down on the wrong side of the equation...When men and women debate about polygamy, they argue that it is patriarchal and oppressive...When in reality, it is not the system, but the practitioner that is patriarchal and oppressive...Capitalism existed long before the Bushes and Gordon Gekkos of lore!

amazing. the beauty and simplicity of life without manufacturers and organizations to control the day to day process that people have strived upon for thousands of years.
