In order to save time and strength, when we reclaimed the wasteland full of weeds, we cut the grass and spread it directly on the field , plus some cow dung and leaves, composted directly in the field, and then we brought in discarded iron tiles to cover the compost,which can accelerate the decomposition of organic matter into the soil of agglomerated structure. After a period of time, we can grow vegetables directly on the compost. This method saves us a lot time and conforms to the principle of least resistance in nature. Now there are only two members of us in our community. In addition to hard work everyday, we also need to use our brains.
During this time, we harvested a wave of oversized taro and green vegetables, winter melon and eggplant can also be picked one after another, the loofah began to bloom and fruit, the beans and cucumbers continued to dedicate themselves. Every time we ate the fresh cucumbers, our heart was full of gratitude for nature! The Abbot likes to eat beans. He said that he was very happy to eat so many beans this year. He was even curious and asked how Yang Le managed to make beans bear so many! We really have a secret weapon. In addition to apply a lot of solid compost, we often apply liquid fertilizers too. Brother Huiguang returned to the first branch. Brother Yangle was responsible for a lot of technical tasks: installing water pumps, connecting water pipes, repairing duck houses and nursery rooms. I am used to seeing him standing next to a compost pile or in a vegetable field with a hoe or a shovel, and then looking at him holding tools such as saws, pliers and hammers with a serious face, I instantly feel that this brother is so attractive. I couldn't help but admire, I really didn't want to tell him, I had the urge to kiss him at that time, hahaha. . .
After coming to our community, I found that I really like planting work, whether it is planting flowers or growing vegetables with Yang Le, I find it very fun! Look! these little buds are coming out, so cute and amazing, how did they do it? Seeing the seeds from germination to growth, from flowering to fruiting day by day, we have witnessed the magic and greatness of life at a close distance, as well as felt and been grateful for the surprise and hope that they bring us. In addition, I experienced a state in the process of taking care of these small lives: a peaceful and calm heart filled with the joy and expectation:I wanted to play and participate in creation. Driven by this inner power, every act of working is so smooth and natural, without any stagnation and force. Yes, participating in the activities of nature, becoming a part of nature, there is no youself, no worries, no resistance, everything happens according to the wishes of the Greatest Creator,feeling safe and comfortable, harmonious and beautiful! Our spiritaul guide said that being a human being, the most beautiful feeling is blending into nature.This is true. I hope that every brother and sister can put themselves in the embrace of nature through their favorite work.
