From Vasant's Correspondence Vasant

Vibration of OM and mantras chanted at sunrise and sunset have a specific frequency of vibration which is attuned to the universe and can be heard on other planets. Such mantras facilitate the receiving of information and interstellar communication.

Planetary forces have reign on Earth's atmosphere.

Planetary dysfunction now on Mars is disrupting the atmosphere on this planet.

All this talk of UFO sightings. People really know so little. There are high forces operating on the planet now.

Scientists base their conclusions on experiments. Now they will be based on experience.

What do we mean by SOUNDS OF SILENCE?

Now we have to look into vibrational healing done with special mantras and fire.

Sound therapy will now be applied by practitioners of Homa Therapy. SOUND and LIGHT Therapy, combined with all music, art, vibrations along with special treatments provided by herbs grown in Homa

atmosphere.

We are providing practical knowledge at a very intense time in the world. People will look for ways to grow food.

Wisdom of ages is given through

ATMOSPHERE now.

At sunrise and sunset certain energies are released into the atmosphere and the effect is profound.

The atmosphere we are in determines our health and our state of mind.

Happy atmosphere = happy plants = abundant production with good taste.

Mr. Engineer Gilberto Vera
Chief of ADEX [an export company of the Peruvian government]

TINGO MARIA

Mr. Engineer:

Through this letter I salute you, wishing you much success in the function which you are performing. In my capacity as an agriculturalist from the High Huallaga area, with much experience in the implementation of programs for alternative crops (alternatives to planting cocoa), developed by different Government agencies, in which you participate and continue to do so, as ADEX, I find myself with the duty of informing you of the following:

First of all, I should let you know that I am very grateful to the High Huallaga Special Project, Tingo Maria, which is part of the Department of the Presidency, for having given me the opportunity to work with Homa Therapy, a technique of organic agriculture. Its effectiveness in obtaining healthy crops with a high yield, the ease of its practice and its low cost, fit the reality of peasants like us. This is a powerful motive for many farmers to join every day, to begin applying Homa Therapy.

Before starting to work with Homa Therapy, this was my situation, similar to that of any peasant from the High Huallaga region, a situation of total despair and one which people do not understand: I thought I no longer had any recourse to heal my crops, since I tried all chemical substances that you, as a Government agency, supplied to me. Nothing worked. Plagues and sicknesses continued, and the yield of the crops continued to diminish each time more and more. I first wanted to try the effectiveness of Homa Therapy on the "Panama evil" ( a stronger fungus than "Black Sigatoka") which was making my ten hectares of plantains disappear. All the agronomists, specialists, doctors, etc. kept telling me that that particular sickness has no solution because the fungus lives in the soil of cultivation. I thought, if many experts tell me that nothing can be done, what can I, a simple peasant who lives off his crops, do? Day by day I was threatened, seeing my plantain plantation disappear. This meant that I was losing the immediate sustenance of my family.

In my farm I also had plants of Tangelo, planted five years ago, and they still were not bearing fruit. Mangostino plants were eight years old and the tallest had grown only 1.5 meters high and some had grown only seventy to eighty centimeters high. (Tangelo and Mangostino are fruits which sell at good price because they are considered to be gourmet delicacies). All these trees were about to dry up. Their leaves were pale green, almost yellow, full of "rancha" (a fungus ).

When I planted Papaya plants, I was told that they were from certified seeds of high quality, but as they grew, the leaves turned yellow and one year after they were planted one could still not see any indication that these plants could bloom and that a crop could soon be harvested.

To ensure my economy for a few months, I used to participate in alternative programs for basic food crops, but every time my debt grew and I had no capacity to pay back. The last time I accepted to participate in a program using agrochemicals was to plant corn. They gave me twenty-five kilos of seeds. In the pictures that they showed me, one could see very big and beautiful ears of corn. I got excited and I accepted to plant. I prepared the land as I usually would for corn. I planted and not one single grain germinated. The Engineer of the program came. He confirmed that nothing had germinated, but he told me that in any event I had to give back the seed. I had to buy seeds from the regional variety and give it back. I told myself that I would no longer accept any Government program.

Many peasants are being sued because of the debts they incurred through their participation in alternative programs, to the point of losing the ownership of their land.

The following is a description of benefits which I have obtained and continue to obtain with Homa Therapy after approximately six months of application:

My main interest was my plantain plantation and with much eagerness and expectation I was hoping that Homa Therapy would heal my plantain plantation,

and it did.

First, they installed the Homa resonance point and, once I was trained, I began to practice the basic fires of Homa Therapy. After only a week I began to observe that my plantain trees began to develop very green, healthy leaves. I continued to practice the Homa fires, especially Agnihotra, which is the fire performed at sunrise and sunset, plus the application of Agnihotra ash as a solution. Each week with my fumigating tank, I began to apply Agnihotra solution to the whole plantain plantation, and in general to all my plants and the following occurred:

A plantain plantation of ten hectares, already abandoned because it was unproductive, useful only to give shade to my coffee plantation, rapidly began to develop "bellotas" (the rhomboid flower which gives origin to a bunch of plantain or bananas), in a line, one after the other. So immediately I started to clean up the plantain trees and to continue to use Agnihotra solution. This solution, as if it were some hormone, accelerated the flowering of the coffee and the leaves grew with a spectacular shine.

The Special Project High Huallaga of the Department of the Presidency, (PEAH)- Tingo Maria, installed two extra hectares of coffee for me. I have already obtained a harvest from the old coffee plantation and it is again blooming. (Normally, coffee yields once a year). I obtained a coffee with an exquisite aroma and of agreeable taste, after one year and two months of being planted.

Seeing that the "Panama evil" disappeared from my plantain plantation, and having an abundant production of real shoots through the effect of Homa Therapy, I made an expansion of my area of plantains, only with Homa shoots. Also, I paid a debt of three thousand soles [approximately 10,200 in U.S. dollars] that I had pending with the Special Project High Huallaga (of the Department of the President of the Republic), only with [the sale of] Homa shoots. I continue to take out real shoots and I sell them to peasants who are expanding their plantain plantations. This thing about Homa shoots is a new income for my economy.

I also did a new plantation of papaya and five months after being planted, it is already producing fruits.

Inside this papaya plantation of one hectare approximately, I decided to plant cabbage and beans, variety "Recline", but I still had about eight thousand square meters, so I thought I would plant more beans. Under these circumstances, Engineer Garcia of ADEX arrived, to invite me to enter into his Program of Castillian beans, variety Black Eye. I told him: " Engineer, I accept to plant in this area of eight thousand square meters, but what I do not accept is your agrochemicals because I am working with an organic agriculture which is the technique of Homa Therapy".

I am most grateful to the Engineer Garcia, for having respected my way of doing agriculture with an organic, natural method, accepting to give me only the twenty-five kilos of seeds of castillian beans, so that at the end of the harvest I return fifty kilos.

Also, the Engineer Garcia told me: You should get from eight hundred to nine hundred kilos from the area which you planted (eight thousand square meters) and ADEX will buy from you at 1.20 soles per kilo. (3.40 soles per U.S. dollar). I made my calculations and I thought I could obtain more or less one thousand soles in three months with the harvest of those beans from ADEX, freeing myself from the payment of the agrochemicals. I had the confidence and certainty that with Homa Therapy I was going to produce the quantity that the Engineer Garcia quoted. In other planting seasons, using agrochemicals, that quantity of yield was not achieved. After two months, I started to harvest ripened beans. I harvested two sacks to bring to Tingo Maria. Then, I had so much production that people would come to visit me and I would give them beans. I gave away three sacks in total. The beans continued to ripen more until the end and, after two and a half months, I started the final harvest. To my astonishment and that of many people, this area which was smaller than one hectare, yielded more than 2,500 kilos, almost three times more than the quantity calculated by the Engineer Garcia. I know that in the following planting seasons, the yield will increase even more, because all the plants are improving day by day because of the effect of Homa Therapy.

After sixty days I harvested the cabbages. Each cabbage weighed one kilo and I sold them in the market for one sol. The cabbages which come from Huanuco, which is the area of adequate climate for cabbages, are three times smaller and in the market they sell three cabbages for one sol. Only nine Homa cabbages filled up a sack.

The "Recline" beans came out in less than two months. I planted them before the "Castillian" beans. I consumed much "Recline" beans when they were ripe. When the plants of these beans were small, my hens were constantly eating up the leaves and did not allow the plants to develop. Some plants were totally destroyed. At the end, the plants had more pods than leaves. Of an area of 1,700 square meters, from only five kilos of seeds, I harvested more than three hundred kilos and I sold them at 2.80 soles per kilo. The beans developed very big and very shiny and with no attack from any "rancha" fungus or insects.

Agricultural engineers from the German GTZ visited me. They said that their names were engineer Augusto Aponte Martínez, and Helfer Pasapera Pasapera.

They marvelled at the vitality and production capacity of the plants, and especially how heathy they were. The same Engineer Garcia from ADEX told me that it was the best plantation of beans that he had seen and because of this, he took [samples] to his bosses in Lima so that they would observe.

Another crop at which the visiting agronomic engineers marvelled was the tomato crop, planted in only ten square meters. Some plants developed from eight to ten tomatoes but they were very big. Other plants developed from thirty to thirty-five tomatoes. Each plant produced an average of five kilos per plant. From those ten square meters I harvested more than five hundred kilos of very healthy tomatoes, very firm and shiny, and I am motivated to continue to plant tomatoes because I have another income.

The small cucumbers produced in forty days and with an average of seventeen fruits per plant. Each fruit reached thirty-five centimeters long and they were very wide.

All this was achieved with the fires of Homa Therapy plus Agnihotra solution. The Mangostino plants, in only three months of applying Homa Therapy, developed 1.50 meters more, over the height of seventy centimeters or 1.50 meters in some cases, that they had developed in eight years and they were all very sick. The old leaves, full of "rancha" began to fall down and a new foliage sprouted up. Some are about to sprout and engineers from the University said that it is still producing at ten years of age. The same occurred with the planting of oranges. They grew 1.50 meters in three months and now they are bigger.

The Tangelo plants, which were planted five years ago and which had never bloomed before, now, because of the effect of Homa Therapy, are in full blooming. So, feeling very happy, I told my wife, "Now, I do not have to worry any more, because the Tangelo trees began to produce; thus my old age is insured, because I will have much production, not only with the plantain and other crops, but also the Tangelo, for which I waited to bloom for so much time."

I told Engineer Efrain Cáceres from the Special Project High Huallaga of the Department of the Presidency that I will plant five other hectares of Tangelo. They got motivated and said that they were enthusiastic about entering the agricultural activity in their personal capacity.

The Special Project High Huallaga of the Department of the Presidency (PEAH) Tingo Maria, gave me technical assistance to establish a nursery of oranges, variety "Cleopatra" and "rough skin" lemon, each one with five thousand plants. Agnihotra solution was applied every week, just as it was done with the other plants. Due to a strong summer, when the earth splits because of the heat without a protective roof, these are very green and healthy. They have grown more than eighteen centimeters high, two months after being planted. The engineers from the German GTZ also marveled at the vitality of these citrus due to the effect of Homa Therapy.

In my farm, I also have "Carambola" plants. With Homa Therapy, these fruits developed three times more than the normal size. The same occurred with the "Marglobe" variety of tomatoes, which I mentioned earlier. Even the rose plants, they bloomed permanently, with a very agreeable and long lasting fragrance. My wife is Evangelist and she takes roses to her Church. The pastor, smelling so much fragrance, asked whether they had poured some rose balm in the sanctuary and my wife, Medelina, told him that it was the roses that she brought from her farm.

Before, we could not sleep due to the worries that we had because I could not pay my debts, especially debts to the Government and I could not even pay with ease the people who were helping me with the agriculture. Now it is easy for me because every day I have more income, thanks to the benefits of Homa Therapy, especially to Agnihotra fire. It has returned my health to me and to many others who come to my agricultural land—poor people who come from San Martin region and from very far away places. To all I teach gratis to do the Agnihotra fire and they get healed from many sicknesses, such as asthma.

There are many agriculturalists who have been working with Homa Therapy and we give mutual support to each other. They are the ones who are near my area. Such is the case of the sector "Los Milagros". There the Muñoz Escalante brothers work with plantain, papayas and cows, applying Homa Therapy, and they provide me with the dry cow dung cakes. These cows are very healthy. They only eat natural fodder and Agnihotra ash and they do not receive any kind of treatment with chemical medicine nor any vaccination.

Also in the same area "Los Milagros" they are working with cocoa, applying Homa Therapy without chemicals. The agronomic engineers from the German GTZ, who visited me said that Mr. Augusto Ascenso Bedoya's cocoa plantation was the best from the whole zone. They even went to Tocache and they could not find a plantation of cocoa with so much vitality and producing outside of season (month of August) and at the same time, flowers.

There are other farmers from "Los Milagros" area who planted ADEX's castillian beans with Homa Therapy. They are still in full bloom. It ensures a good harvest.

Until the last days of my life, I will continue to practice Homa Therapy, because, thanks to it, I recuperated my will to continue to live, working in my agricultural land and I no longer think of selling my land and going to Tingo Maria or another town to search for another means of economic income. I feel happy because I have always been a farmer. I wanted and I continue to want to be a farmer and with Homa Therapy, this is possible.

I would like that this letter transmits the happiness that a farmer feels when he really can have material prosperity and also good health, a reality that for many years has disappeared from the men in the countryside in High Huallaga and in other areas.

Sincerely,

Observations from Engineer Rosa Cortez Morales from the Department of the Presidency of Peru

(Compiled and translated by Irma Garcia)

Beans, "Recline" variety

The standard is that this variety is harvested every three months. Before Homa Therapy, these beans were attacked from the beginning of their development by insects and this affected the quantity and quality of the crop. Now, with HOMA THERAPY, they are free of sicknesses and plagues. Each plant is producing an average of 135 bean pods. The beans were ready to be harvested two months after having been planted.

Oranges, "Cleopatra" variety

Five thousand orange seedlings, after applying Homa Therapy, reached a height of eighteen centimeters two months after their germination, in full summer without any shade.

Cabbage

In conventional agriculture, using agrochemicals, the reproductive cycle of the cabbage consists of ninety days. With Homa Therapy, the reproductive cycle was shortened to sixty days. Each cabbage has an approximate diameter of eighty centimeters. They are absolutely free of plagues and sicknesses.

Coconuts

Before Homa Therapy, all new and old coconut trees in this farm were attacked by ants and fungi such as Fumigaria. The fruits became loose and fell down before becoming ripe. Ripening took a very long time and each plant produced a maximum of five coconuts.

With Homa Therapy, the plants became clean and totally healthy, free from ants and fungus. Each plant produced from twenty to twenty-five coconuts. The production of fruits is permanent.

(This photo shows a coconut tree with thirty-five coconuts as a result of Homa Therapy.)

Plantains, "Isla" variety

The plantain plantation was fifth generation, with a minimal production and very small bunches, with seventy percent infestation of Fusarium fungus, forty percent Pseudomona Solanace, as well as Black Sigatoka and Yellow Sigatoka. The plants produced an average of six to seven shoots, most of them not apt for propagation. The reproductive cycle took eight and a half months.

After four months of Homa Therapy, there was a uniform rejuvenation of the whole plantain plantation, and the absence of all plagues and sicknesses. They yielded huge bunches with tremendous weight, and an average of 120 plantains per bunch. Twelve to thirteen real shoots were produced by

each plant. The plants had eight to ten leaves at the termination of the ripening process. The reproductive cycle was shortened to six months.

Tomatoes

In the previous planting season, with agrochemicals, there was a ninety percent infestation of Oidium SPP and ninety-five percent of Bemissia Tabaci. Fruits were seven

centimeters high, thirteen centimeters in diameter and weighed eighty-five grams. They were tasteless, the texture was dull and opaque, and they were pale red in color. Plants yielded one to two kilos of fruit, and maturation took twelve weeks.

In the current planting season with Homa Therapy, the plants are completely healthy. Fruits are ten centimeters high, twenty centimeters thick, and weigh 120 grams. Taste is agreeable, texture is hard and shiny, and the color is intense red. Plants are yielding three to four kilos of fruit, and maturation is taking only seven weeks.

Cucumbers

With conventional agriculture, using agrochemicals, the productive cycle extends itself up to eighty days. With Homa Therapy, cucumbers developed their reproductive cycle in forty days. There was an average of seventeen healthy fruit per plant. Each fruit was from twenty-five to thirty centimeters long and twenty to twenty-five centimeters thick.

After four months of application of HOMA THERAPY, all pathogens disappeared and a total rejuvenation occurred in all crops, with a subsequent increase in all production, with a subsequent increase in all production, with bigger fruits of more weight and size, better taste, color and texture. The vegetative cycle was shortened in each of the plants by forty

percent.

(The report is also signed by the chief of Leoncio Prado—Padre Abad area, Special Project High Huallaga, Department of the Presidency of Peru.)

On December 15th we started a resonance point in Alta Gracia de Orituco in Guarico state. This day was a terrible day for Venezuela because all of Vargas and Miranda states were totally flooded and many people died. It was the worst flood in our history here.

The owner of this farm is Francy Alcala, an agronomic engineer. Her farm has forty hectares, of which eight hectares will be transplanted with tomatoes and two hectares of sweet aji (peppers). Last year she cultivated tomatoes and they were all diseased. She also said that all her neighbors have sick tomatoes. Now there is a new disease that starts drying the plant from the leaves, rots the fruit and then moves down to the roots.

Being an engineer, she wanted to try three hectares with Homas and agrochemicals and the rest (seven hectares) only with Homa Therapy, but something very peculiar happened. Suddenly it started raining and the river of the Alta Gracia overflowed. All the neighboring farms near Francy, which had corn and tomato cultivations, got all flooded and lost their crops. Francy's farm, where the Homa Therapy resonance point had been introduced only three days before and almost two weeks of morning Agnihotra had been done, was the only farm in which only three hectares were flooded, and in the rest of the farm nothing happened. Also, only the part where the agrochemicals had been put was flooded.

Right now, a volunteer from Caracas, Eduardo Rodriguez, is there for a few weeks to make sure the fires are being done correctly.

Om Shree!

What is the aim of all sadhana (spiritual practice)? Maybe "self-realization", "liberation", "enlightenment". Let's for a moment be very practical. Practically speaking, the culmination of all sadhana is to reach a state where it is all the time "Love thy neighbor as thyself." Where you can see God in every person. Every person becomes a special manifestation of divine energy. In every face he sees only God. This is the stage we are aiming for with our sadhana, so that no matter who it is, (it may be anyone, anyone at all) can you see God in him or her?

Even if someone abuses you, can you see God in him? You may have had a negative experience with a guru or spiritual guide, but can you see God in him? Your marriage or relationship may have broken down. Can you see God in your ex-wife, ex-husband, ex-partner? This is the end of all spiritual practice—if in every face you see only God, then it is all the time "Love thy neighbor as thyself." When that stage is reached, no further effort is required.

This also implies that we should see God in ourselves. "Thou art made in the image of thy Father." "I and my Father are one." However, most of the time we are totally forgetful of this and we need to make some effort in order to regain unbroken awareness of this. Forgetfulness of our Divine spark means it is constantly "I am the body" consciousness—nothing beyond that. All the sense organs are focused outwards, not inwards. The body gets used to finding pleasure through these sense organs and eventually we feel security only in these pleasures. This means more attachment to persons and material things in this world. And unless that attachment is broken we can never reach our goal.

We need to make an effort to get out of that "I am the body" consciousness and into the awareness that "I and my Father are one." This is training the mind in the direction of total love. This is training the mind in the direction of "Not my will but Thy will be done." Only one person in thousands feels the need to make this effort and then only very few of these make the actual effort. Depending on the person's previous Karma, they are brought into contact with some saintly person or Guru or some type of Satsang (proper company). NEVERTHELESS THEY STILL HAVE TO MAKE THE EFFORT. For this Agnihotra Ayurvedic copper pyramid healing fire is the MOST POWERFUL material aid. (Agnihotra is performed exactly at sunrise and sunset.) Agnihotra creates conditions which are conducive to making this effort. Agnihotra actually pushes the human mind in the direction of Love. By practice of Agnihotra the mind gradually takes on the coloration of TOTAL LOVE.

Whatsoever adversities come your way, welcome them. That does not mean not to solve the problems as they arise, but to face them and realize the lesson each one comes to bear for you, like a transporter. They carry the lessons to be learned. Your whole life you are just waiting for the transporter to bring these lessons for you to learn and to rise higher—whole life. So, if this "transporter" seems to have run late then you may be experiencing the delivery of several transports at one time. It is all right. That is also a lesson.

If you can see it like that and get it, you will have much less trouble later on. Next "transport" will arrive and you will be ready for it. "OK. Deliver it here. Thank you very much." Times ahead will be so much simpler if you learn the lessons.
