As wildflowers unfurl across the Polish countryside, Ecovillage Bhrugu Aranya welcomes a season of growth, community and creativity. The long-awaited Centre of Light, the Ecovillage’s flagship ecological building, remains under interior construction. Yet, even in its present form, its timbers and sun-lit panels have provided a vibrant venue for Open Days, musical gatherings, healing circles and small meetings—proof positive that as the structure rises, so does the possibility of hosting larger groups and deeper retreats.

A beautiful event honoring Mother Earth was organized by Professor Javier Cruz and Leslie Girón, teacher in the Agricultural School in Tambogrande, both Agnihotris. This was done in conjunction with the Municipality of Tambogrande and its Department of Ecology.

When I lived in Piura, due to my job, for two years with my family and my parents, we built a bio-garden during the COVID-19 time. My mother was very involved in this garden. Because there was no garbage collection during that time, we used all the organic waste from the kitchen to make compost, burying it and creating a bio-garden. We added the ash from the Homa fires, in addition to practicing these daily, sometimes in the company of many Agnihotris. At that time, it was very difficult to obtain fresh fruits and vegetables. However, we began to have a wide variety of everything, such as herbs, paico, basil, herbs for seasoning, papayas, caiguas, and passion fruits (beautiful in color and in great abundance), cherry tomatoes, squash, cilantro, aguaymanto, pickled chili peppers, limo chili peppers, cocktail potatoes, purple corn, plums, sugarcane, etc.

In the rolling green hills of Little Akaloa, South Island, New Zealand, where the land itself seems to hum with life, three brothers—Remy, Jean, and Kieran— along with the rest of the Family as well as friends have dedicated their lives to a profound mission: restoring harmony between nature, animals, and humanity. Inspired by the ancient Vedic practice of Agnihotra and guided by wisdom passed down from their grandfather, their farm, Golden Ratio, stands as a testament to the healing power of Fire, soil, and devotion.

Shree Vasant advised Horst to find a place from which the spread in Europe could start. Together with around 50 interested people, a farm was acquired at the end of 1988 and has been run as Homa-Hof Heiligenberg since 1989. Here a place developed where the Fivefold Path is lived intensively and shared. Lectures and seminars are held in which the knowledge is taught in a practical way. Many visitors can feel the high light energy at the Homa-Hof (Hof = farm), and the positive effect on nature can be seen in the crops grown.
