Hare Krishna Community
and among them a few families with children - make up our community.
25 are resident on our land and another 20 or so live in the neighbouring
village, but are closely connected to the project. We plan to
build 3 or 4 new houses, especially for the couples with families, but as
yet we have not got planning permission.
On a voluntary basis each individual contributes to the project according
to their means. The most important consideration is the consciousness
behind the endeavours, and the interest to participate and learn in
an interactive way. All members of the community are independent
and responsible for themselves and may leave the community when
they like.
If you would like to participate, you should be ready and happy to live
vegetarian, free from intoxicants, during your stay. We ask that visitors
to retain an open mind for the principles of Krishna consciousness
(Bhakti-Yoga). Our spiritual practices are based on the teachings of the
Vedic literature, especially the Bhagavad Gita. If you are interested in
understand more about this, we suggest you visit your local Hare Krishna
centre.
The easiest way for interested persons to get a real picture of our farm
community, is to experience it for themselves by stopping by for a visit
(over the weekend, for example). We recommend those who wish to
spend extended stays with us, begin with some short visits, so that we
can get to know each other, before mutually committing ourselves.
