Hare Krishna Gurudeva, please accept my humble obeisances

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!!

All glories to Hanumatpresaka Swami!!

All the members of this project have resolved the fundamental questions: Who are we? Can we work as a team, and how are we going to make this project come true?

To date we are: p. Raghunatha, p. Uddhava, p. Gadai Gauranga and his wife his mother Nadiya, Nitya-kisori mataji, p. Laksmi-Narayana, Maria and me.

Summary of progress made.

ASA - Many hands make light labor!

1. With Prabhu Uddhava, disciple of Prahladananda Swami (he is a forestry engineer, an expert in agrarian issues with 40 years of experience) we are in the preliminary stage of locating and formalizing the property.

We have located two properties, one in Zuñiga (Cañete), to the south, three hours from Lima and another in Pativilca, to the north, at 3 or 3.30 hours.

We are also evaluating, Canta, Huarochirí and San Mateo. As you mentioned that Pamashto is very far (20 hours from Lima), we are locating the property within a radius of no more than 4 hours from Lima, okay?

ASA-Uncle Gismo - It must be within 45-minutes of a city where there is a university, no? Must be land for ASA and other land that friends of ASA can buy. Water. Maybe in Ecuador???

2. With the Ecological House of the Catholic University and Walter Leon we are seeing a project to build ecological houses, we are baptizing this model as RAM house (Rural, Anti-seismic and Multipurpose). They will also advise us on the use of wind energy and solar panels. Any suggestion?

HpS - Grass converts solar power, oxen and bulls eat grass and provide work, no? Good solar power?? Can develop property so that it will be attractive to other buyers, not just Hare Krsna buildings, then can sell and buy other place if better?

3. With the La Molina Agrarian University we are in very good conversations so that this project is evaluated for its organic and ecological crops with permaculture, they will make a soil evaluation and investigate our production model as a model to be replicated. Any suggestion?

ASA - Puede tomar apoyo del Maharaja Bhakti purusotraya Swami y su proyecto???

4. Nitya-kisori is a business administrator and her brother Franco is a planning expert trained in France, both of them, starting in January, begin to design the administrative and legal structure of the project and an annual work plan for the next three years . Any suggestion?

HpS - Good.

It is a fact that we have to have a place where we can practice the way of life that we preach: "Simple life and high thinking." I have been talking these last weeks with different types of people, academics, artists and businessmen, they all agree that the creation of these ecological and cultural villages is the best way to live in goodness and to properly face this pandemic and all those that seem to be looming.

ASA - They are all Krsna's mercy. Bhakta Fred thinks that Krsna has given power to people in the Kali-yuga to develop industrial power, yantra vidhi, but now they are destroying the Earth, so He is finishing it. This pandemic will mutate and in the end the industrialized life style will be destroyed. Peopl will be successful who live in nations based upon village, rural life. Village, Town, City, County, Nation.

The will be 80% self sufficient just from their village life and not travel too much or too far, but will be very well connected if need be.

Normal Dvapara yuga life.

HARE KRISHNA GURUDEVA, her useless servant, Abhirama Thakura dasa.

HpS - ASA --- Thank you many!!!!! ASA Asokavan, Peru, Radha-kunda.

Proyecto: Aldea Agroecológica y Cultural "Nueva Aksovan"

Todos los integrantes de este proyecto han resuelto las preguntas fundamentales: ¿Quiénes somos? ¿Podemos trabajar en equipo? y ¿cómo vamos a hacer realidad este proyecto?

Hasta la fecha somos: p. Raghunatha, pág. Uddhava, pág. Gadai Gauranga y su esposa su madre Nadiya, Nitya-kisori mataji, p. Laksmi-Narayana, Maria y yo.

Resumen de los avances realizados.

1. Con Prabhu Uddhava, discípulo de Prahladananda Swami (es un ingeniero forestal, experto en temas agrarios con 40 años de experiencia) estamos en la etapa preliminar de ubicar y formalizar la propiedad. Hemos localizado dos propiedades, una en Zuñiga (Cañete), al sur, a tres horas de Lima y otra en Pativilca, al norte, a las 3 o 3.30 horas. También estamos evaluando, Canta, Huarochirí y San Mateo. Como mencionaste que Pamashto está muy lejos (a 20 horas de Lima), estamos ubicando la propiedad en un radio de no más de 4 horas desde Lima, ¿está bien?

2. Con la Casa Ecológica de la Universidad Católica y Walter León estamos viendo un proyecto de construcción de casas ecológicas, bautizamos este modelo como casa RAM (Rural, Antisísmica y Multipropósito). También nos asesorarán sobre el uso de energía eólica y paneles solares. ¿Alguna sugerencia?

3. Con la Universidad Agraria La Molina estamos en muy buenas conversaciones para que este proyecto sea evaluado por sus cultivos orgánicos y ecológicos con permacultura, ellos harán una evaluación de suelos e investigarán nuestro modelo de producción como modelo a replicar. ¿Alguna sugerencia?

4. Nitya-kisori es administradora de empresas y su hermano Franco es un experto en planificación formado en Francia, ambos, a partir de enero, comienzan a diseñar la estructura administrativa y legal del proyecto y un plan de trabajo anual para los próximos tres años. ¿Alguna sugerencia?

Es un hecho que tenemos que tener un lugar donde podamos practicar la forma de vida que predicamos: "Vida simple y pensamiento elevado". He estado hablando estas últimas semanas con diferentes tipos de personas, académicos, artistas y empresarios, todos coinciden en que la creación de estas aldeas ecológicas y culturales es la mejor manera de vivir en bondad y enfrentar adecuadamente esta pandemia y todas las que parecen que ya se avecinan.
