This is a pile of wood we cut which we put in

Ready for the many volunteers who will hopefully come in the not too
distant future.
A blog to keep me in touch with the visual side of myself. Every day I post something about my life in Buddha Garden, a farm in Auroville, South India
This is a pile of wood we cut which we put in
the bonfire area near the stone circle.
Ready for the many volunteers who will hopefully come in the not too
distant future.
Today we took one of the gates on an epic
journey from its original place in the New Horizon garden to the new gate. With the cement slab it was very difficult as
it was very heavy, but together we managed it.
I had to take a picture of this four wheel
vehicle, the first on the farm since we enlarged the new gate! This vehicle
came to take away our rubbish and is the first of many that will come to do
jobs like brining in leaves and building work that need a four wheel vehicle.
I saw these clouds on my walk today. I love the way they look so tossed by the
wind although there wasn’t so much breeze on my walk.
Unfortunately this still picture doesn’t give
much idea of how the dappled sunlight danced with the wind.
We had several neem trees cut back yesterday by
a crew of special tree cutting people.
As the trees were making too much shadow on some of the vegetable
growing beds. It looks rather drastic
but Rajan tells me that the tree will quickly grow back and be a much better
shape.
I hope he is correct!
It was Guru Purnima today, a celebration of all
those who teach, and so there was a
special puja. This picture is of all the
puja items from Ganesha’s altar that had to be washed before the puja started.
