Oleh Gunaavatar Das

Beberapa kegiatan sedang berlangsung di Yasodapura Eco Village dalam beberapa bulan terakhir. Musim hujan juga merupakan musim tanam, yang mana berlangsung lancar tahun ini. Keluarga – keluarga yang bekerja di tanah kami telah mulai mengolah lahan.

Kami telah membuat kontrak selama setahun dengan mereka untuk menggunakan lahan kami – satu hektar untuk setiap keluarga. Lebih lanjut, mereka harus memberikan 15% dari hasil panen atau membayar dengan jumlah uang yang setara. Kini ada 6 keluarga. Mereka menanam padi, jagung dan singkong, selama akhir musim mereka akan tinggal di lahan selama 3-4 bulan. Rincian selengkapnya terkait tinggal dan lain – lain telah tertulis dalam kontrak persetujuan. Ini akan memfasilitasi kelancaran hubungan di antara kami dan membantu mereka untuk melayani Tuhan Sri Krishna dan Buddha.

Ada dua keluarga di sini menjadi penduduk tetap. Mereka tinggal sepanjang waktu. Satu diantaranya merupakan janda tua dengan 3 orang anak. Suaminya telah meninggal beberapa tahun lalu dalam keadaan miskin tanpa meninggalkan warisan. Dua anak laki – lakinya yang sudah dewasa bekerja sebagai buruh di kota.

Secepatnya kami akan membuatkan gubuk baru untuk keluarga baru ini. Kami juga berusaha mendapatkan satu atau dua sapi untuk mereka pelihara. Mereka suka menanam sayuran. Dengan adanya sapi, mereka akan memperolah kotoran sapi yang cukup untuk pupuk.

Penyembah – penyembah juga telah memulai pembibitan pertama di Yasodapura Eco Village yang ditaburkan di lahan seluas 10 m². Bulan lalu, kami mulai dengan 200 bibit pohon nangka yang sekarang telah mulai tumbuh. Kami berencana untuk menanam bibit pohon lainnya, seperti mangga, drumstick ( moringa oleifera ), dan kacang mete. Setelah empat bulan, kami dapat memindahkan mereka ke lahan sebenarnya. Dengan cara yang sama kami akan melajutkan menanam banyak bibit di musim hujan selanjutnya.

Pembibitan ini menggunakan pupuk kotoran sapi yang kami peroleh dari desa terdekat. Bulan lalu kam mengumpulkan 20 kantong pupuk dan membawanya ke lahan kami. Namun selama bulan Agustus sampai Desember, beberapa penduduk desa akan mengembalakan sapi – sapi mereka di lahan kami. Dengan begitu, kami akan mendapatkan pupuk. Tahun lalu, kami menerapkan cara ini untuk penanaman pisang dan hasilnya sangat bagus. Pisang tumbuh lebih cepat dan memberikan banyak buah yang manis. Pisang dapat tumbuh dengan mudah, seperti halnya padi dan biji – bijian lainnya, tidak perlu terlalu banyak pemeliharaan.

Kami menanam 40 lagi pohon pisang pada musim terakhir dan di antara pohon satu dan lainnya, kami menanam okra atau lady finger bersama dengan beberapa bayam yang tumbuh sendirinya.

Kami juga sedang dalam proses menetapkan Raja Marga ( jalan tengah dan jalan lingkar ) di lahan utama kami 35,8 hektar Yasodapura Eco Village. Raja Marga adalah sekitar 8 meter dan jalan lingkar sekitar 4 meter. Berdasarkan rencana utama kami, akan ada patung Tuhan Vishnu di putaran Raja Marga, di tengah lahan ini. Kami membersihkan tempat untuk Raja Marga dan jalan lingkar ini karena jalan lama telah ada di sana. Kami hanya akan membuatnya menjadi lebih besar dan sekarang hampir selesai. Kami harap dapat mewujudkan rencana utama ini sesuai dengan laporan ini sehingga semua orang dapat melihatnya.

Di sisi lain proyek ini, kami mulai membangun pangkalan baru di lahan yang telah kami beli di desa. Lokasinya sekitar 3 km dari Yasodapura. Karena pangkalan ini berada di samping jalan raya dan dekat dengan desa setempat, ini akan memfasilitasi sukarelawan kami untuk tetap aman. Kemungkinan, kami juga akan membuka kelas untuk anak – anak dan untuk melaksanakan program lainnya seperti food for life, dan kegiatan mingguan. Kami juga akan membangun sebuah goshala kecil di sebelahnya dan dimulai dengan dua sapi. Sebuah rumah kecil, yang terbuat dari kayu dan atap aluminium akan segera terbangun di sana. Secepatnya, pengerjaan dinding dan lantai juga akan selesai.

Untuk membangun hubungan dengan para penduduk sekitar, kami telah melakukan Food for Life secara berkala di desa – desa berbeda ( lebih detail, tersedia dalam artikel – artikel kami di website www.iskconcambodia.com ).

Kami harap dapat mengucapkan terima kasih banyak untuk segala perhatian, bantuan dan dukungan. Kami mengharapkan karunia dari semuanya sehingga kami dapat melanjutkan pelayanan kami di Kamboja, dan untuk menyebarkan karunia Srila Prabhupada.

By Gunaavatar Das

Several activities have been going on at Yasodapura Eco Village in the past several months. Rainy season is also growing season, which is already in full swing for this year. Families who work at our land have begun to cultivate the land.

We have made one year agreement with them to use our land- one hectare for one family. Further, they either need to give 15 % of the harvest or pay an equivalent sum of money. Now we have about 6 families. They grow rice, corn and cassava, during the end of the season they would stay on the land for about 3-4 months. All these details related to stay and further have been taken care of in the agreement. This would facilitate smooth cooperative relationship between us and help them serve Lord Krishna and Lord Buddha.

We have two families as our permanent residents. They have been staying there all the time. One of them is an old widow mother with 3 kids. Her husband had passed away a few years ago, leaving her without any support and in poor state. She has two grown up sons working as labors in the city.

Very soon we are going to build a new cottage for this new family. We will also try to adopt one or two cows for them to take care. They like to grow vegetables. By having a cow, they will get enough cow dung for composting.

Our devotees have also started the first nursery at Yasodapura Eco Village. It is spread in an area of about 10 m². Last month, we started with about two hundred jack fruit seeds and now it has started growing up. We also plan to get other seeds like that of mango, of drum stick, and of cashew nut. After four months we can transplan them on the main land. We will similarly continue to grow many seeds for the next rainy season.

This nursery is using cow dung compost that we had taken from the nearby village. Last month we collected about 20 bags of compost and brought them to our land. But during the months of August to December, a few villagers will graze their cows on our land. In this process, we will get cow dung. Last year, we had used that for our banana plantation and the result was very good. The bananas grew faster and are now laden with a lot of fruits. Bananas are nice and can also grow very easily. Like rice or some other grains they do not need much maintenance.

We planted about 40 more bananas in the last season and in between we also grew okra or lady finger along with some spinach growing naturally.

We are also in the process to lay down the raja marga (middle road and ring road) on our main land 35.8 hectares Yasodapura Eco Village. Raja marga is about 8meters and ring road is about 4 meters. According to our master plan we will have Lord Vishnu’s statue at the Raja Marga circle , the center of the land. We clean up for the raja marga and for the Ring Road because the old road was already there. We simply made it bigger and it is now almost complete. Hope we could make this master plan attached with this report so that everyone will able to see it.

On the other side of the project, we started to build a new base on the land that we had bought in the village. This location is about 3 kms from Yasodapura. Because of this nearby base next to the main road and near the local villages, will facilitate our volunteers to stay safely. Possibly, we will also open classes for the children and for conducting other programs such as Food for life, and other weekly programs. We will also build small goshala on the side with two cows in the beginning. One small house, made simply with wood and aluminium sheet roof has now come up there. Soon wall and floor work will also be done.

In order to build our relationship with the villagers around us, we have been doing regular Food for Life program in different villages (for details kindly refer to our other article/s in our website www.iskconcambodia.com).

We wish to thank you very much for all your attention, help and support. We seek your mercy so that we can continue our service in Cambodia, and thus spread the glory of Srila Prabhupada.

Very inspiring and pleasing to Srila Prabhupada.
