The earth humility and working in mother nature.

 "Getting down into it and dirty"

Vandana Shiva environmentalist and activist; She, on her farm speaks of how we become one with the earth and heal and care for ourselves and the mother.

 I love this explanation from Vandana because here in my semi self sufficient block of land with solar energy from Surya the Sun and pani water Narayan from the sky I know I can feed and heal myself as I work organically in the soil. That earth built up over years with composts and manure. 

It is such a loving experience to nurture plants and vegetables from seed to kitchen and learn about the feelings of each little plant and its requirements to grow. It is an act of participation in the miracle of the Mothers fertility, seeding near the full Moon, mulching and watering daily.

In this interaction we become closer and closer to Ma, The Mother of the universe and "the Ma" in yourself, that is Love, the creative female side. For to partake in the life cycle is to know what it is to witness life which is the force of Love.

 

Working in nature is healing oneself.
