 We take a form of sign and a form of convergence of the Bhagavad Gita, for writing the station of Kruva. Bhagavad Gita My name is Ramalingam. I have come from a nearby village called Guilatalli. For my understanding, that is the first village nearby Toruville when it was started in 1968. My first contact person was Shyamala and Varadarajan. I was young. We were having a given education. That is the only way to bring the connection with the neighboring villages to know Toruville. There were many children. Not only having an education, also physical education where we are children about 350 children participating in sports activities. And it was managed by Shyamala, Varadarajan and one person called Ekhtar. And also Ambashankar Pramar Bindavashram. After some time, there was a problem for financial management. Not only our activities in our village, for various reasons, the project is continuing. I was very young. So, we after not completing disconnected from education from its standard, I start involved in various construction activities as an employee very young age. This is a family circumstances. It was very difficult to manage without having income. Age of 15 that I got employed in one of the Auro polyester here as per Asian. It was managed by Baha Vanda. Now, we call him Baha Vandas. His name was different. He was slowly forgotten. That is the real name of the people. And Louis. Actually Louis Coyen. After some time, even the factory has been closed for some reasons. I was participating in various activities in Auroville. Up to becoming a gardener and working in communities. And then, our family was a weaver. We produced clothes. And my father already gave me a chance to learn. And I learned. That skill after some time, I mean, that activities are producing clothes. I've been gone. We don't know what reason was. So in our village, entire is washed out. There's no more weaving sections in the villages. Then I went to nearby village in Pondicherry. I was doing some times. I was doing this work. And it was difficult for me to leave in the early morning and come back overnight. So again, I have come back to Auroville and start my employment at the age of 19. So during this time, being in education with the Jamala and Varajan, and then age of 20, that we have no connection at all. But during the period when we were with them, they gave an opportunity to know a little bit. Not so much. We were not very much concentrating on what they tried to expend. It was very young. And around the age of 22, I decided to join Auroville. I don't know anything spiritually connected to the project of Auroville but mother wanted it. And after joining Auroville, I began to work with Mr. Ramachandra Rao called Seven. He told me a few things about what's Auroville, what's Auroville, what's Auroville, what is mother. And we got a chance to take your books and to read, to try to understand a little bit about their background, how they come from. Because there was a freedom fighter so we can easily, then how this connection was happened. So we said, Auroville is Auroville's mother. And slowly to know only how things of them, not their internal spiritual activities, basic about them. So while I joined Auroville, I'm being started with Mr. Ramachandra Rao Seven, and then after some time going through this architectural design office called Fourth Dimension, I'm a draft man. The same time, there's a first community that I started to live, it's called Fitenity. So most of the people in French, they were very serious about Auroville, sorry, Aurovindos and mother's vision about Auroville. What is Auroville? And even though we are being in the community, that time it was a very difficult moment with various issues, and they were very serious about mother's vision to bring it up for materialization. And we were there together after some time that we have to separate from that. I left the place because going everywhere, different communities to get a shelter was not that easy. Even I'm talking, this is almost 80 to 80, 83, 84, getting a shelter is not easy. Very difficult for various reasons, and simple hurts. Some utility that I got somehow to stay there and it was a difficult for me, because that time I got interested to study French in Alien France. My class hours, it starts at 6.30, I'm up to 8.30, and returned back from Pondicherry to Auroville by cycling. It was big. Very difficult it was because those days there's not very much electricity available. It's dark and I have to go on the green-belt side. But I managed to go for one year to complete. And second year also I started during this timing it doesn't work for me to continue and I have to stop. During this period when I'm returning back, I used to go to the Auroville Pondicherry. It was managed by Subhir. And we go in the evenings sometimes to know about many things. He also helped me. While being in fraternities, my shelter would start to learn cooking. Cooking it's one of the fashion in my family, but they were running a small tea shop and they were giving food also to the people. Somehow that I got this opportunity to know, to learn something very basic with my mother. So while I was in fraternity that we have a rotation of cooking systems and the day comes me to do this cooking and I start to show what is my capacity and ability to cook. The taste of the food it was very much attract people and they encouraged me to learn more. They were giving some input even though they build also one small oven but I have to make many things in that oven which is inspiration which I got it, something like that. And then I heard about it, they are looking people to work in Baratneva's children's lunch to prepare meals for the school children. I just approached them and said what I want to do. They will come to me and then they gave a first job is to dishwash if anybody goes in restaurant. Dishwash because I'm not qualified person to be in the kitchen to prepare a food. One moment came that somebody asked me can you make some sambar rice? That's the first way I start in my food preparation sambar for larger scale about 600 to 700 students we were supplying food. By tasting the food and they found it was very good. Then they gave me you take the in charge of the kitchen proper food preparation then I became in charge also I had some labor problem because previous people at a time that all of them stopped their sisters they stopped I don't know what to do then I tried to go to sambal and bring some girls from there and train them, teach them from that stage itself they can cooperate with me to check vegetables and rest I can take care and start to managing the whole kitchen suddenly like that within a month. That was a big challenge for me to bring to make a food for this school children and I managed and then they give me the responsibility to an executive to go get the money and bring and make a menu and then manage with that menu within the budget what they provided me it was very good and I think it's the 85 or the 85, the year of 85 I had the chances to go to America to improve my culinary knowledge then I handed over to someone who was helping me then I went to America and come back within short period my father was sick I could not even be there to continue to complete my program anyway even that learned that program will not support our image because it is a non-veg it is a seafood restaurant some technology only I can pick it up from there and wherever I go that I found the food that what we are preparing in India in our village is much better than that food style but I always have the curiosity to know from other side what they do, what type of food they are eating how it is it is really impossible to be stored in the freezer so I have returned back and then I have no job what to do meanwhile I tried to get engaged in in revelation with the Prema, Auro mode of being in a as a supervisor at the same time that I have given that La Bhutik Daul Pondicherry to manage so I do off day work here at La Bhutik Daul Pondicherry managing the both and one moment they have constructed this solar kitchen when it is shifted from here to there the man who was managing this solar kitchen after me called Josephi from the beach area where I was in Gokulam is incapable to organize this fund they found it is not able to manage they called me again I went there I took over the solar kitchen food preparation centers lots of people we went up to 1200 lunches every day very interesting this preparation of lunches 10.30 we have to give a food to the children who are younger 5 years or 4 years exactly then 11.30 to the school children and you are allowed to be very careful with these spices which you are putting inside which should be accepted by and by 12 then it is for adults who are coming to eat very well everybody has appreciated the food was nice some problem internally to organize because I found that the food which I was preparing within the 3 different timings to delivery it became a commercialized attitude fast move fast so I brought this is not the way to do the preparation of the food you have to give a more time slowly then you bring the healthness inside not overcooked not speedy cooking so I decided to split the team were helping me into 2 timings to come one comes in the morning 7 other one comes in little late 8 o clock so we can able to have a more time to do this preparation children's food is very carefully so we need more time to do this there was no cooperation from the people and I said then there is no reason for myself to be here consciously something which I want to do here the food to be prepared for child's doesn't work so I told them that I am leaving if you don't give your cooperation they are okay so I left when I left I became a jobless also don't have a permanent place to stay one of my friend very good friend and lived in Auroville called Sharnam in Dana she is my best friend and mother she told me that now you have one house so there is one project available you contact Mr. Will Sullivan from CSR he will help you so I think this project something to do with the quiet and the project been presented and fundraised this was the name is not coming to me maybe later I will say people know about it I went to the Will Sullivan okay I can able to take up this project can you because a donation came it is lying there for more than 2 years nobody wants to go because it is a big task the land kept empty for more than 15 years and it just passes by the 3 villages so I have to go and protect that land about 14 acres so he appreciated very much yes I support you go and start then I started the project first we have to make a fence when you want to make a fence there is a lot of resistance come from the fisherman and the neighbouring villages people who have been using that land as a trespass as a passage I have to manage with the help of friends from Auroville they supported me and able to complete that work managed to put the fence okay fence is done several times they broke they came out to fight many things has happened but we managed to put the fence to cover and gate they have developed my own nursery of the Buchenwillers and then I planted also Buchenwillers around the fence it was also growing very nice then they brought that we need to put a windmill so I dig the well myself go into the ground way down and putting up this the rings of the cement rings and it is about 3 meters more than 3 meters I am able to go the moment I take up the soil immediately lots of water coming from there and it is going under totally wrong direction of all the rings so I decide to stop that part at that moment there was enough water for setup a windmill after successfully completed this one also some of these old coconut trees dying and I just cut and I have put a new one up in planted there was a new people came to live there that is organised by these health group centres and they were supposed to assist me but it is went on other way around that does not bring me comfortable to continue my work there also there was allegation on me saying that I am cut off these coconut trees a man came just one month ago that he is complaining about to me and also those project holders without consulting me they write allegation on me and sent to working committees that all brought me into unhappiness to be there and I was thinking to move from there so one moment I was sitting the evening I was talking to mother what can I where can I do where I go I am running everywhere since I came to Auroville it is almost 2000 83 when I came from there it is 2000 the answer came to me there are parts of land nearby it is called Auro beach actually a southern side of repo unutilised actually that land the first laundry service been provided I think the person called Poonam who have been staying there I went to see and being inquired before I am leaving I contacted project holder and I told him that I am leaving in one month I do not feel comfortable to continue here and find someone to take over so meanwhile I started to fencing the area of the Gokulam huge area it was very nice then one day over night before I shipped from quite to Gokulam someone called me that somebody put a fire on the fence the reason was that places was used to sell liquors so I have to contact Krishna Tiwari from Auro model to help me to remove this shop from there with the help of police he removed so people were angry and they set the fire on my fence ok we came and I have been stopped the fire people from villages helped me for this and rebuild the fence again meanwhile the day passed one month crossed then I checked with the project holder I told him tomorrow I am leaving you find somebody so they tried to put somebody there to release me to what happened I left then I start to be in Gokulam named Gokulam and I start to develop the place little by little or with a photo of my source source from me only I have not taken anything from Auroville and it has come but my intention was shifted to that place is also to create a school for that side children they do not have the school facilities we have school facilities from Auroville outage children, outage school children we have Kotakarai, Kulapalem and all of them of this but no at Mudaliar Chavadi there was no school I do not have a very much contact with the people from outside who can help me about the project how to write the project and get to approval so I failed to do this work then I start to create a dairy bike house for Auroville and then to go on this was successful and practically it also became a problem because it needs more land with the type of land already I am having more than 24 animals very difficult to maintain with that so I was looking outside with the help of land service that I could it got some land but it is too far near Sadhana forest to ship there and then somebody told me near Kotakarai I went there and I saw a construction everything done there about 15 to 20 animals can put so when I shipped my hatch from my animals from Gokulam to there in first year itself I found that there are diseases affected area I did not know that they got into immediately food and mouth disease so I allowed to remove cows from their immediate bring back to the previous place in between time I had a problem with the labour I have to close that unit in Kotakarai and maintain that one also in between I have not done anything big achievement but 2006 2000 exactly 2000 I was yeah this is I was planning to go to America one time and suddenly a man crossed and say that what are you doing? I am just here I cannot able to develop this place in Kotakarai there is a problem there I was also doing some cultivation not only dairy I was growing rice there and he told me wouldn't you come and join land service then I thought oh mother did not want me to go to America be here to do the work ok I give the first priority for that work then going to America I went the next day to his office he was joking on me oh you have come I was joking whatever it is but I thought it is a serious matter that you call me it is up to you now so he said alright you join us I join and then the responsibility I got is land management so my responsibility is to visit all the lands to check all the lands and what there is no how do you say that people crossing the field test passes and if there are any issue comes that you will have to go for legal action go into police station and go into court assist the advocate and lead the cases into the court up to that stage I have to follow up so any cases starts and I have to provide the history of the family how they caught land etc it was quite challenging work I did that for some time so one moment when they do the one land purchase it was not clear to me the amount of money spent I asked some questions and the question was not the answer was not fulfilled my question then I told them that I am not happy to continue here I am leaving so I left the job too then I don't know what to do in between time that until 2004 yeah 2004 I was outside doing my culinary activities join the schools of people come from Finland they have here vocational courses they took it was managed by I being appointed as a chef preparing for six months a year able to manage with that my life I leave the job for some reason and I have been asked to join LRM now it's called land resource management to continue my work again it's called land service land matters and being with them what was ok the big loan work that quite it's been done alright but not under percent as I wanted even I had a problem there's lots of lands I have not been utilized and bringing lot of problem also so while I being with them one incident took place in Gokulam where I was with my absence I was not there so it has become big issue then I have decided to close the guest house activities whatever I was doing it I closed then 2004 we had this tsunami and friends gone security is all gone and I became alone even I have wife and children but I came alone they shipped the place to positive locations I was being alone there and I am trying to manage and keep them in the asset within two years after that the sea erosion started taking out the soils they took away also my house which I built there and staying so I becoming a house I was staying there lots of land had been taken away the area became very short ends I don't know what to do I have been asked by land board while I was working in even land resource management to give that land back to Auroville and get in to move into inside Auroville as it is a request of the governing board chairman Mr. Currency so then I approached them and then shipped into Auroville because no house how can I stay in Gokula they have agreed and sent the people to make a valuation of the existing assets and they could come up with that actually it is lucky that all this program has happened before this erosion takes place otherwise the whole building will be gone without any proof there then the FMC was working closely and asked me to present my project so I agreed to submit my project and they have agreed to go stage by stage to build what requirement to become a farm to make a farm but every time I am challenging already started Gokula myself where there is nothing also the quite started there is nothing there now the third place again there is nothing it is an assessment form which I have to start one more every time that I am challenging the problems more come from from outside than from inside too I have to challenge everybody to do these projects there was this lack of misunderstanding from within our own brothers and sisters in Auroville I could not realize why this kind of resistance comes I always focus very much on this what they say about this project what are the resistance comes where it comes there are moments where I come to realize that it does not come from outside it comes from inside that I try to realize and then try to control not to lead in the direction to change myself or rather look at changes from others that is a moment I think it was 2010 where I began to realize many more issues which is happening to my life being an independent not get married till the age of 30 all my sisters and brothers married then I decide to marry then the family one side I become a one side from 2000 it was 2004-2005 onwards then again I try to start something forming sector there also I am getting problems I am not getting the support in time from our own communities what I was learnt is pushing any matter will not happen it will happen on its own rhythm and time when something to be done to be decided to be done something it will happen be sincere devotion and dedication in that line and it will happen in time no need to push that matters when the challenge came to me to establish a new farm one year I could not be able to manage because fund was not granted and I was struggling a lot so at the time only mothers support to me she sent an expert to meet me called Mr. K. Mahadevan retired officer age of 80 above the 80 who got a vast knowledge about agriculture and also is a consultant of the ashram farms on our old chart he come to know my stories one of the farm group meeting usually the land allotted by FAMC but that should be recommended by the farm group in my case is a different that it is swap I.e. about the land which was managed by me belongs over I am a handovering bag but FAMC take the responsibility to allot me it is unusualism but it is something new thing they did they studied 80 acres they gave only 4 acres under the condition is if the land is being used in better management and increase the productivity after 3 years of evaluation they will allot me another 4 acres that is ok I agreed that conditions my professor called K. Mahadevan when he came to see me he asked me are you really interested to do this agriculture yes and he asked me are you ready to invest relax I told him he merited one go but in space I can do stages I can do that work so he accepted then he taught to teach me about agriculture how to do about it when land have nothing only bushes was there from the beginning from 0 to 100 that he taught me everything a student who go to agriculture college to study even he would not have that experience on being practically working in the field which I got the chances that evening every evening at 5 o'clock I will be his house our theoretical classes goes on for 2-3 hours there and I come back then I implement in the land the next day I have to what I have been implemented what is the result it was and I have to report back to him and he will give the other guidance what I suppose the class went on from the soil management water management plant management disease management environmental management so everything has been taught me how to do also that land which need is NPK the basic basic nutrient there are trace elements about 32 which we have to bring in site inoculate and what has to be done that he taught me if he would not come to teach with his agriculture I would not come to a succeed farmer I would have been like others having a random knowledge and it is not in scientifically how to go about it I came very successful farming and within the acre even though 4 acre they given to me it is only 2.4 acre I can bring into cultivation others rest is their coconut and mangoes and access and houses things like that what he taught me it is in mind that self-welfth action no attachment with your activities devotion and dedication and be strong the first thing what he told me is be strong in agriculture but any circumstances situation these agriculture activities are related with the environmental ecology some reason that you may get into disturbed by this environmental ecology for example storm or rain or things you may have to lose your crop and don't get into panic you have to be strong and start next activity immediately so I said yes definitely and it became very successful we showed we made a project to submit to the FMC for approval we are supposed to become sustainability with 50 years but within 3 years that we became sustainability in our project it was written very clearly it is forming activities when the success will comes we go into catering activities to make a form food land to table we already written the project so once this is completed then we go into training program the knowledge which he is giving he want others to know because he came to do he came to Auroville to do this form assessment in Auroville they had a project to do 5 year plans in that report in that report what he has been told people need more knowledge on agriculture it is lacking nice lands but need the production it is not sufficient more production we need then the project is collapsed it didn't continue anymore cancelled or whatever was happened so he left and he was being in Pondicherry he come to see me first beginning for 3 years he comes even sometimes almost every week once a month or twice a month or sometimes after 2 months but he get a report from me update report proud to say himself I know I am in Pondicherry but I know exactly what is happening where is what that attitude which I got myself but without his knowledge even I am not able to just pull it up one grass so I went in that way make a clear vision about him about what is happening in the farm then he get able to give me proper lesson what I am supposed to do but unfortunately he passed away only a month ago but I feel that if you are going to continue to stay in other 10 years the project which I have taken now with the support with his support that will be more strong to continue and make it successful however that I will bring successful no problem but what knowledge he has given to me so these are the things which is went into my life right now that I have been taken assessment not assessment assignment is to collect to look all the land which has not been utilized for so many years bring them into food cultivation for present and future maximum land can be utilized and these cultivation method will be a collective farming systems the farmers are interested to do this farming activity they will be gathered as a group and upon parcel of the land available club them into four or three or two not one single every individual will get five acres of land these five acres clubbed into three people fifteen acres four people twenty acres they will get all infrastructures to do the farming activities for cultural operations they get one maintenance and also they will get a budget to do this work this project already been submitted to the FMC they are working on it for approval soon we get their approval we will work this is one thing what I have been talking about my life journey where it is went on in outer lay it is only external work external development which was happened but the base to succeed every aspect which I have been travelling out ship that inner consciousness is much much more important which as development which is happening I always used to say that it is not Ramalingam or does this Ramalingam is a tool internally there is a spirit which is strongly believe on mother divine energies that to witness the divine energy will manifest only when we have no attachment with the materialist lifestyle every time there is a human error is there in my error in myself I found it that is the way I speak disturbs others even I speak good things may I don't know how to express in soft way whether make people to understand but the way I speak also to rush speed people don't understand sometimes and I also come to know many time that even yesterday also it was happened to me one of my friend tells me you both are shouting the same language that we are speaking in Tamil little louder and speed people who don't understand the language they see always expression they both are fighting but the meaning they don't understand so this happened the whole my lifetime but I have not taken into very serious about it but at the same time I wanted to correct myself so I always realize that success come from where this is what I said especially Ramalingam when he step into any activities how the success come and I told them when I started this farming activities in Sassanam's farm they give only 3.5 3 and half lakhs only they give for farming activities they put into infrastructures but doing this hard work there we managed to bring one of the best farm for protection and to be a predictive model the reason behind is that what my professor taught me that he never taken any paisa when he gave knowledge to me and that's what he said I have I'm a well-wisher and also I'm very much attached with mother's activities and I'm being an officer in Pondicherry and he wants to support me so they always say about you do the divine work that is what we return our in the canteen the food is served here as a prasad please don't waste the food not in the mind of the cash values so he said and also he said keep the prices a minimum the food what you serve will be affordable by the local farmers when they pass by don't put the board outside that brings a tourist inside and your quality of the food will go away so all he taught me be consciously connected with the work of the mother what she wanted so this part still it goes on my activities but what is inner development what I've been achieved in that one naturally it was happened to my life I didn't want to marry anyone I don't want to marry anybody I was thinking it that she might become against of my aim to be in Auroville then sometimes I found somebody who can who was associated with our system activities and I said okay this person would be good okay I married I have one child but after that I found a no human being human being we also need something and what mother's thought to the people teach the people to live in this project to achieve it is for every individual inner progress to have this inner progress we should not have any attachment with the material if we don't have that if you don't follow that we end up nowhere we will have a constantly problem that's what she brought a very good methods she brought the one who wants to live in Auroville to be a willing servant of the divine consciousness if I want to be in divine consciousness and do my activities as a karma yoga I should not have an attachment with anything I could not accumulate in my personal need and she has said there is the simple life unless I go into simple life I cannot be connected with the divine activity divine impossible that's where I will go on and Anashram take these songs or his mantra or the book returned by in Tiruvannamalai Arunagiri Nathara 600 years ago the song is very clearly mentioned about it how to be connected with divine exactly that's what mother has been told how to be so in also where is the divine the lyrics are going to sing right now in Tamil but see whether people can understand he has written very clearly Singing The saint is he returned the songs that he demands it's for everybody. If I sing it's for me I think it's for me, it's using, it's for you. What it says is divine and me are not separated. Divine in me, me and you, or I and you are together. All our actions comes outside. It's the benefit of the same divinity on every once. So there is no separation of ourselves. This is not the problem today that the mind said that I and you, no, we, that's what Mother wanted, we together, one movement I was thinking about also, the development of the inner consciousness and also to others is to start from individually. It's fine, you can start individually if you can able to realize who you are. If we are not, it's very difficult. Then they start I and you, we and they. So we is to understand the divine energy in you, we expect the same thing from others. You respect yourself, you also respect others. So loving nature only can bring together and not by ordering to anyone. If people are not understand about it, give a chance to make them to understand, not to impose that what I have, what I found. This was my problem which early days, what I'm seeing that's a perfectly all right and what I say that's what Mother wanted. It's what you do, it's wrong. I hope you're not living according to Mother wish. That's not my work actually. The divine work should happen by itself part of make the people to understand it's an early mistake what I did. That's I'm coming to realize myself and try to change myself and try to do my work and perfectly live accordingly of Mother wanted maximum. Not even 100%, at least 20% what she asked me to be the material manifestation. So material manifestation will happen only when we have given up this ambition into material lifestyle. Even most of them I say to my wife and children, you may have certain vision of your lifestyle. That may not suit into my lifestyle. I'm not living the medical lifestyle towards the future. I'm more in the present. Be in a consciously lead my life towards to whatever I want to do. If you have an expectation of something that any father can bring material support to you means that I'm not the guy, I'm sorry. Of course I realize I did a mistake. But after doing that only I realize I did a mistake that I don't have the what when children. It's too late. But I leave them, I show them direction you can go, you can get. But life it's not ending with the materiality. A material ambition never wrongs satisfaction. So does satisfaction become dissatisfaction bringing a disappointment? Disappointment will bring sorrows. Sorrows bring the illness. Illness is bringing up your death. That's your only end. But when you start to work for divinity in a divine work for work for people and you include yourself with them. The joy, how do you say, there's no word to express about it. The joy what you get inside. So much excitement, whatever the age is it doesn't matter. But the inside, the energy what you get. It's one should do, get into that and then to analyze this and then you'll understand about it. But still I'm learning, but very much I'm learning because I got a chance to read these lyrics to find out what it say about it. And that support me my life to be here and also when the success comes into every my action that I always say to people that it's not because of Sri Ramalingam. It's a divine work. She's with me and she see what I'm doing it and she give the direction to me and she give support to me also. Even recently the new project of collective farming project which I had in my mind for many years by seeing that lands or something. Something very interesting to see a collective way of living because I lived earlier when I came to Auroville. That happiness that joy which we had cannot forget about. And I always say very strongly it should come back. We all worked united towards her wish. It's not her wish, it is our wish actually. We put that mother wanted to that. For who to? It's for us only, it's actually our project it is. Metal manifestation should have happened everywhere being. It's towards the human cycle actually. We are today with the knowledge of the mind. What mind says we do that. And there are people who are connected with the soul inside. They can analyze what mind says, what your soul say about it. And then you connect with the both and bring it towards what mother wanted. Towards the evolution what's going on. The next stage of the mankind. It believes very much it will be super mind. So in order to go in that line to get the super mind we have to be ready in physically and mentally. When this is going to happen it has to depend upon the participant, participant, people how they are sincere to keep this project run mostly to the divine work. That will happen. However it's going to happen individually but mother said collective is most important. So if you all focus at that line we can receive this very short time. So it's all up to us. Auroville today is the project which has given us for every well-being who have been participating in this project for their welfare. So this is what I learned. I've undergone through the experience till the dialogue I'm going to be here. But very interesting. I have, first of all when I came to Auroville that's also I do not know anything about it. Only some people told me but this is a life realization when I go through this exercise zone. Not that easy. A man who married have children that's not that easy that people can understand. As an Hindu, some lifestyle that father has to look up to the children some children's needs is very difficult. But sometimes also get blamed. But strong willpower what we have we have to bring that to the family. Also tell them that you are here. You are not some simplest just you come like that. It's there is an invitation by knowing or unknowingly if you just quietly think about it then you will understand about it. To do this work of the mother what she wanted us to do. So focus on that line and you will get your own experience. Be an experience you will realize what you are supposed to do. I have my personal conversation with my son. And he listen and understood very often and he said yes, yes, yes. But still every children, every young I have ambition and life that you want to do this, you want to do that. So unless that you go through that experience and he never going to another direction you still will have lacking of that. It also happened to my life with my son very much interested to go after his college education to be motorcycle riding became a biker. Bike racer, even you can see datum you raise you're riding bike motorcycle very speed. I've told them already every time you have some lessons be careful. So he's going to be complete in studying in Guaimattur recently. He participated in the racing program in Guaimattur. He got some lesson there. He fell down something and also see the people who are there how many years of practice and what's the motorcycle they have and everything. Since he's come back he don't open any more about the topic at all. So he realized, he told me this is not possible just start today and tomorrow to win this. It's a long practice from the childhood it has to come on parent support and to concentrate and all comes but they where I am and looking after they do to my age 23 and within that that is become after 23 seems it's going into adult stage up for different age group to participate. So he realized that it stopped. So that is where it is every individual doing any activities when he comes with a personal experience for realization of these what he wants to do then he make changes immediately. He made changes to change his lifestyle. That is what I see much my son but my work is started long ago to every activities how does it going on? And I tried to be more connected with the community with the divine. I see all members who are living and are available as a member. It's a divine worker. You're also there and also outside people are living outside. They are not able to realize what's a divine work but here we can able to see we people have come for that work. Whatever we have a difference of opinion but we are still we have that aim to do. But first thing is we need to understand what is the project? What is Auroville? Auroville is not a obstacle somewhere. It is in you the way you live the way you live in Auroville and the life that you lead in Auroville that's called it's called Auroville but it's a inner progress but most important now your participation. How far you understood about Auroville what the divine work mother wanted us to then if we can begin to change in that also feel about it to understand and make a progress and no attachment. I do have that long time that when I say something I look forward always that to be sanctioned granted that's correct. Now myself I'm changing slowly even though there are some push from inside what's wrong with that your presentation? It's all good only it has to go that way only what's wrong with that but then I just put one word if that's a correct let it get sanctioned if that's not correct live for some time take back no argument no fight. So if you are feel exactly that divine work that what you've been carry out automatically get sanctioned don't need to worry about it. If not then it will be delayed. So if it is delayed means it takes some more time to get ripened then it will be sanctioned should not get into personal attachment the worries and sorrows of that which was not happened give a more time. But in that way that I'm still learning how to even the first of all to learning how to be in the group and work in the group which I was not doing in all my life because standing position of always I'm the right you are wrong and always say about if something wrong you tells me if you can prove that something that you're wrong that I nowadays is what I say if you say something if you feel something I'm doing wrong whatever it is you tell me this is wrong what you do then I just analyze with that and I make an apologize or correct myself. So maximum I control trying to control myself not to disturb others in that way that okay but still. So our next stage is now we have successfully we brought is the food canteen called Akshaya Farm Kitchen to provide food lunches from 12 to four o'clock. Anybody comes from Auroville four o'clock where is the food? Go to Shastan Farm there is a food. So for food that we keep opening we're serving a simple food. So from that stage we want to go to know as one more to teach agriculture to the young people to become a more farmers and also we want to teach the food processings what I think right now it's the scheme the project which we have taken up now for collective farming which going to bring lots of food. So if we depend only the people who are here to consume still there is more food is there. Once we have a larger food and we'll have to go for a processing system. If it is a milk you make a cheese and many more product and give it to the people. And if it is a fruits you make a dehydration and then keep stock and supply to the children. So don't need to worry about the foods. We try it now it's very difficult because managing these farms and it's disposal of their it's produce. It's need a lot of cooperation from the community side is still lacking. So the method what we are bringing up slowly any farmers to our collective farming system that their mind will be removed from these produce and sale that should be removed slowly. And people bring to work together with the group which was need especially farming sectors every farmers right now independently working and there is no collective way of doing anything. And also it says buy and it's produce and sale bringing different mindset of attitudes create more problems. And we are focused on to take out from that one and put into collective farming systems. But it's a big task. We haven't lived in this kind of life more than 50 years. Now we try to bring up people to more centralized their activities also to more in collective way. But we leave this to the mother because we see she has to lead this project in such a way it gets successful and make people to I'm interesting to see here that there are already 20 people I've been open for this. I told them one thing be careful. Land is given to you but you are not that's wrong. And the land given to you or collective farming system. You are not only five acre yourself no. So when you put in things in collective it's returns becoming very much larger. When you take individually so much effort goes only to protect your individual five acre but revenue will be less. There are many infrastructure we'll have to create in that way. It is not possible I said. We have to come back one practical issue right now it's about let's say four people get into 20 acres and one bore well one tractor. It's okay we can keep much more even planning to have even one tractor for even 50 acres plant such a way that one tractor works. But right now how we are farmers there are big farmers about five people I think five or six people they have everyone's tractors. The tractor work only minimum time can you you don't use it. So the resource been saved when you have a collective farming systems. We don't need to accumulate more tractors once enough. So I believe this project will be successful and Oro will merge and come back again to the life of the collective system collective I believe where this individual lifestyle has to go away and bring back again the community lifestyle and sit and speak openly to share which is lacking right now in Oroville. Lot of things which has been spoken behind you know if that's consciousness will not help the project to go the wish of the mother how it's supposed to be. The first of all we allow to understand each other to be and make a progress. The energy is most important than the external ones. I always used to see my son when he went when he go there to put an application to become an Orovillian. He was asking question is not able to understand what is spiritually and materially. I give a simple answer to him. For example we in Sassan form create all assets inside it's called material. Spiritual if tomorrow authority tells you leave go away that's a spiritual you have no attachment. You have to be ready anytime if they ask you to leave, leave. Otherwise that word which says the life that we grow here and Oroville material and spiritual development no meaning at all about it. He understood immediately so wherever we are we are there we should not have an attachment. So things people to realize then we'll have no problem joy. See somebody came and told me even not even tell me that they went there simply marking then where I have a kitchen marking a radial road. I said what are you doing here? We are marking the radial road. Oh okay very good so I see this one. It is a progress of my activities. One way I support them road I don't want to block them. Second that activities I have to reconstruct the kitchen another place. It's promoted to 100 people to sit inside to eat. Now we are only 40 people consider 50 people not more than that. So I see always when we participate with the global functions or community functions of development and it's always benefit to people to bring other activities, another things which is promote itself. I merrily told them that all right you will make your road I can shift. I'm here I'm nowhere no one here. I don't have any authorization that's what I say. To live in Auroville one must be willing survey, travel, divine consciousness. And Auroville belongs to nobody in particular. In what is the particular that I have authority to block or to resist anything the activities which has been going to carry out by the centralized people, development groups. When we have to participate even I did a mistake. Sorry this is my mistake I did. I don't want to object to that. You can go ahead that cafeteria right now there is not concerned by me. It was did by earlier with the already people who have sold that land they build a watchman house. I mean in such a way that in the watchman house of the minimum investment I can bring a dining hall to eat. The various areas where we're sitting only we need temporary ones. But the main cooking areas they build it already. So I said I don't have any attachment in that if you do it I can cooperate even I went for a few times to meet the development committee and put my things even written email message. I willing to cooperate but tell me as quick as possible that when the roads are going to come because all my renovation activities have been stopped now I don't know you they also told me don't spend money. So things going on smoothly. So these shows from my side is that I'm here to the divine work and collaborate with the community not for myself. And also we predicted our lifetime is a very shortened within the short time that what we can achieve not even 100% mean you go into 60 70% that you according to mother how she wanted the every participant to be in our will towards to their inner growth for the next stage. So it's all up to every individual of involvement in my way I'm very happy and I'm very proud being here in this project doing the work of the divine work is actually there into that. And also yeah many more things that thank you.
