Let's design the green!

Palazzo Doria Gardens

Dear green,

Over the last few months we have had the opportunity to meet in Cabella and to develop some ideas about the restyling of the gardens around the Castle.

Individually we have lots of ideas, but our desire is to develop projects collectively as a Sangha. We would, therefore, like to invite anyone who wants to share their ideas, projects and commitment to kindly fill in this form and send it to us before the end of February. We plan to hold a practical seminar in March in which we can start work for the Spring.

Let’s work togehter to create an Eden around the abode of the Devi.

the Forest Game

Today was raining in Cabella, and the Green team lead a game called: "the Forest Game".
We ask to the children to chose one living being both from vegetal than animal world, to be represented. All of them chosen to be trees, squirrel, fox, frog etc. Than we gave to the first child, the tree, to start the story with a rope in the hand. "I am the tree and I like the birds on my branches" and passed the rope to the child/bird, that continued the story, making a nice tale. All of them was part of the tale and passing the rope among them they create a strong net. When all the children was connected with the rope, they all felt to be one, part of the same system, and that system very strong. They could feel themselves through the net connection, as an experience. Than we start rewinding the tale, saying "now we cut the tree", and the child/tree left the rope, than the bird, and all the others one by one. They could feel the system became weaker and weaker. At the end all of them was on the ground and we finish the game. But they could feel that a forest is strong when all the part of it are healthy and strong, and they all are needed as a part of the all. And the forest is an example of Mother Nature.

The Gardening Class

The Green Team has been invited by the principle of the Cabella Sahaj School to lead a Class of gardening to the children. This gave us a great pleasure and a great responsibility because we feel very important that our little angels grown up with consciousness about our Mother Earth. So thank to the fact that aunty Senny, who is teaching nature in the Dharamsala School, was in Italy for some time, we made a program and we start to have class with the little (class1, 2 and 3) at the green areas around the Castle, every saturday. It was very touching have such group of angels, and teach them about Mother Earth, about the soil, about what is inside the ground, starting from the living principle of Shri Bhoomi Devi. They were very attentive and very happy to stay in the outdoor, touching the earth with their own little hands, and they felt the vibration of the ground. We are very happy too, and let's pray our humble contribute can help in grow this new generation of human being with an higher awareness of our environment and ourselves as a part of Mother Earth.
