Love poem

Today marks a special day for us, now and forever, happy together. At last!! Thanks to God, Thanks to the Universe. Thanks to All!

Below is a nice love poem made by AI, which honey once showed me.

Sunrise paints the window gold, another day with you unfolds

A simple touch, a gentle sigh, a universe within your eye

We built a world, just you and me, a silent, sweet symphony

And in this quiet, tender space, I find my heart, I find my grace

Oh, my love, a whispered name, a burning, never-ending flame

You're the air I breathe, the stars above, the only one I truly love

Through stormy seas and gentle breeze, my heart finds solace, finds its ease

Forever bound, our souls entwined, a love like ours, so hard to find

We've walked through shadows, hand in hand, across the shifting, golden sand

Each passing moment, sweet and slow, a deeper, richer love we grow

The laughter shared, the tears we cried, the secrets that we hold inside

A tapestry of memories made, a love that time cannot degrade

Oh, my love, a whispered name, a burning, never-ending flame

You're the air I breathe, the stars above, the only one I truly love

Through stormy seas and gentle breeze, my heart finds solace, finds its ease

Forever bound, our souls entwined, a love like ours, so hard to find

And when the world feels cold and gray, your love lights up my lonely way

A beacon shining, strong and true, my heart forever turns to you

Oh, my love, a whispered name, a burning, never-ending flame

You're the air I breathe, the stars above, the only one I truly love

Through stormy seas and gentle breeze, my heart finds solace, finds its ease

Forever bound, our souls entwined, a love like ours, so hard to find

So hard to find, a love so deep, a promise that we'll always keep.

Starry starry night

Starry, starry night
Paint your palette blue and gray
Look out on a summer's day
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul

The Shadow of Your Smile

Look into my eyes, my Love 
And see
All the lovely things
You are to me

Feed the soil and let the soil feed the plant

"As a part of “Module 2 of The Soil Project: Hands Education - Sustainable Living & Development'' and in collaboration with the Mab Eaung Agrinature Center, The Soil Project is organizing an international training program with the theme “Sufficiency Economy Philosophy for Sustainable Development Goals.” This program is scheduled to take place from September 18th to September 30th, 2023, in Thailand. Our mission is to work towards a regenerative and sustainable world while also sharing and spreading the wisdom and vision of the Late King Bhumibol Adulyadej (King Rama IX).

Our diverse group of 25 participants includes individuals working in or related to agriculture. We have 1 participant from Taiwan, 2 from Laos, and 22 from Vietnam. This group boasts a wide range of backgrounds and interests, with some participants owning their own land and striving for self-sufficiency, while others are transitioning into agriculture. Some are farmers, some focus on research related to waste management, and others are involved in community development in the central highlands. This diversity of backgrounds and interests makes our group vibrant and fascinating.

Despite a tight schedule that mirrored the daily routines of farmers, our days began promptly at 6 am and concluded around 10 pm, packed with valuable interactions, learning experiences, and unforgettable moments.

Prior to arriving at Mab Ueang, we explored two remarkable projects initiated to address local challenges. Our first stop was Chak Daeng Temple, a place dedicated to controlling waste entering the Chao Phraya River, which flows south to the Gulf of Thailand in the Western Pacific Ocean. This initiative was spearheaded by Pra Maha Pranom monk. During our visit, we engaged in meaningful conversations with the monk, listened to his inspiring story, and had the opportunity to ask questions related to the project. We also toured the temple, witnessing the recycling systems in place that transform trash into valuable resources, including oil, compost, and textiles. The temple also serves as an educational center for local communities to learn about waste management.

Another inspiring visit was to Pathom Asoke, a Buddhist group in Thailand dedicated to practicing self-sufficiency at the village community level, where everything is self-produced within the community. Our interactions with the residents provided deep insights into this self-sufficiency movement. We explored various places within the community, including a medical center (which was a surprise due to the lack of patients!), a medicine production center, and a school.

Following these enlightening visits, we embarked on a 7-day training program with Mab Ueang Agri-nature Center, with assistance from Pudalay Mahavijalaya school (รร. ปูทะเลย์มหาวิชชาลัย - ศูนย์การเรียนกสิกรรมธรรมชาติมาบเอื้อง). To truly understand the Sufficiency Economy, we didn't just talk and imagine it; we immersed ourselves in various initiatives, social movements, communities, and engaged in community activities to gain practical insights.

We had the privilege of meeting Dr. Wiwat Salyakamthorn, known as Ajarn Yak, who shared the inspiring journey of Mab Ueang, from an idea on paper to a tangible center open for everyone to visit. We also engaged with Ajarn Thor to learn about social movements and the 5P framework, as well as the collaboration mechanisms known as 3-5-7. We developed a deeper understanding of the AgriNature Network. Additionally, we interacted with Buddhist monk Phra Sangkom Thanapanyo, who introduced us to the concept of “New Theory Agriculture” (Kok Nong Na model) for Sufficiency Economy. We met Vorakhet, a billionaire inspired by the Sufficient Economy philosophy initiated by the king, and we witnessed the process of building an ecovillage. We also had the privilege of a session with Prapapat Niyom, director of Arsom Silp Institute of the Arts, where we explored Social Entrepreneurship & Social Enterprise.

Furthermore, we dedicated time to learn about Sufficiency Economy, Agri-Nature Principles, the concept of 3 plantations for 4 Benefits, the 4P framework along with marketing strategies, and the 5 levels of Tree. We witnessed the practical implementation of these concepts at various locations we visited, especially at Mab Ueang Agri-Nature Center in Chon Buri and Arsa Shaona Mahanakhon in Bangkok.

In addition to theoretical knowledge, we had the opportunity to visit various projects and initiatives to witness how these concepts are applied in real-life scenarios. These visits included the Grandpa Market, Arsa Shaona Mahanakhon, and the alternative university - Arsom Silp Institute of the Arts.

Moreover, we acquired various techniques and management skills that we can take back to Vietnam and apply in our respective areas. These included water treatment, water system management (rainwater harvesting), soil management, the Social Entrepreneurship model canvas, landscape design, and more.

One of the most captivating sessions was about the Social Movement Iceberg model, presented by Mrs. Aeumporn Loypradit (aka Ajarn Nui), director of Social Entrepreneurship department at Arsom Silp Institute of the Arts. This session highlighted that the global issues we face today, such as global warming, deforestation, inequality, the COVID-19 pandemic, war, unemployment, lack of livelihood, ineffective policies, flooding, and more, are merely the visible tip of an iceberg. Below the surface lies the way of life and societal patterns, followed by the structures and systems we live within (socialism, capitalism, etc.). At the core of it all is a mindset driven by greed, forming the mental model. To address these pressing challenges, we must adopt a new paradigm, and that paradigm is the Sufficiency Economy.

This program extends beyond our time together in Thailand. Together, we have initiated discussions about continued collaboration upon returning home. VCIL Community and Mab Ueang Agri-Nature Center are exploring the possibility of further training in Vietnam, aimed at capacity building and supporting individuals during their own projects. Inspired by the Arsom Silp Institute of the Arts, one participant is motivated to establish a similar initiative in Vietnam. Participants with their own lands plan to apply the knowledge gained, particularly in soil management, water system management, and landscape design, with support from Mab Ueang experts. Some participants are in the process of creating a book documenting everyone's learning journey, serving as a valuable resource for those interested in learning about the Sufficiency Economy. Many participants are also forming connections and collaborations for future endeavors. Beyond mere projects, these initiatives are deepening and strengthening the relationship between Thailand and Vietnam, while also expanding the network of the Sufficiency Economy.

This training program represents a significant milestone for the VCIL community and its network in advocating for a paradigm shift towards Wellbeing and Sustainable Development. The success of this program is attributed to the volunteers from Pudalay Mahavijalaya school (รร. ปูทะเลย์มหาวิชชาลัย - ศูนย์การเรียนกสิกรรมธรรมชาติมาบเอื้อง), the dedicated individuals at Mab Ueang Agri-Nature Center, and the support from the Agri-Nature Network who work tirelessly to design and facilitate such a holistic and invaluable program for us. This program has been successful thanks to all the participants who brought their authenticity, uniqueness, curiosity, and good intention to build a better world. As we move forward, we anticipate greater cooperation and collaboration among us to collectively contribute to cooling the earth and creating a sustainable future together."

Time in a bottle

How I miss you...

If I could save time in a bottle
The first thing that I’d like to do
Is to save every day ’til eternity passes away
Just to spend them with you

If I could make days last forever
If words could make wishes come true
I’d save every day like a treasure, and then
Again, I would spend them with you...

La Vie en Rose

 Life is not always rosy. But when we have true love in our hearts, life will be beautiful, right?

Circle of connecting education community

Organized by Teach for Vietnam on Saturday, October 28, 2023.

Reflection by Julie:

"Common theme:

1/ We built different “lego serious play” models but all models are humanized: think for people, build for people , become the capsule for people to grow at their fullest.

2/ Changes made by invisible individuals who normally don’t have much time to go online because they’re too busy to fight for real battles in life.

3/ Find or Create a safe place for people to share their perspectives without being judged.

How to make sustainable impact like Teach For Vietnam:

1/ need to be slow sometime because people have different grow speed.

2/ TRUST is a must to influence the changes. Need to Trust people first, then Empower them so that they can be the Captain of Changes.

3/ Learn to speak languages of the ones you want to influence."

I am sorry.

Please forgive me.

Thank you.

I love you.

VCIL Travel School 2022 - Ladakh

 Our lovely memories from Ladakh, India (made by Huy Pavel).  💖 Thank you and love you all. 💗

To our beloved Teacher

 Much love, admiration, deep gratitude and respect to our beloved Teacher Michael Robbins! May your journey ahead be full of Love and Light! 🙏🙏🙏💗💗💗

Tuija Robbins:"Michael passed on 8.17pm GMT, yes, on Regulus. Pluto on my Sun, Saturn on Michael's Mars, and Moon on my Pluto in Leo 29 degrees. His passing was beautiful, very beautiful. His face is calm, reflecting the peaceful departure. Blessings to you All!"

Quốc Khánh: "Thứ 5, 17/02/2022. Jupiter trong Pisces. Ngày hôm nay, một Linh Hồn Vĩ Đại đã trở về với Ashram của mình. Phụng sự viên điển hình của NGWS và người khởi xướng cũng như thúc đẩy không mệt mỏi tiến trình chuẩn bị cho sự Tái Lâm của Đức Christ. Linh Hồn của Thầy đã lựa chọn mặt trời Bảo Bình cho chu kỳ lâm phàm kế tiếp. Điều này cũng đồng nghĩa rằng Chân Thần sẽ sử dụng dấu hiệu Leo như điểm truyền chuyển nguồn năng lượng Tinh Thần hay Ý Chí Thiêng Liêng. Tam giác Sirius - Leo (Regulus - "The Heart of Lion") - Jupiter (Esoteric ruler  sun sign Aquarius) được tập trung trong Thánh Đoàn. Đây là đường lối năng lượng thiết yếu để nuôi dưỡng và mang lại những điều kiện cần thiết vốn sẽ cho phép nhân loại, dưới ảnh hưởng đều đặn của Thánh Đoàn, sẽ nhận cuộc điểm đạo đầu tiên, "sự giáng sinh của Christ" trong tâm. Sirius cai quản tất cả các cuộc điểm đạo. Leo, dấu hiện nhân tính nhất, với những ảnh hưởng nhằm chuẩn bị cho con người cuộc điểm đạo thứ nhất. Jupiter, hành tinh mang lại sự mở rộng tâm thức (định nghĩa cơ bản nhất của điểm đạo); Từ năng lượng Bảo Bình phát ra từ nội cảnh giới, thông qua Jupiter, tuôn đổ "nước của Sự Sống" và phóng rải "sự sống phong phú hơn", dẫn nhân loại vào Thiên Giới qua tiến trình điểm đạo. Sirius mang cung hai, Leo trong ba dấu hiệu hành lửa đóng góp cung hai, Jupiter có linh hồn cung hai, và là tác nhân truyền chuyển năng lượng cung hai chính ở trong thái dương hệ này. Đường lối cung hai Bác Ái – Minh Triết được liên kết với Thánh Đoàn. Lời báo hiệu về sự xuất hiện của một Avatar, một vị Chúa Từ Bi trong tương lai.

Chúng ta cùng nhìn vào sự tương ứng trong công việc của Thầy và tiến trình chuẩn bị cho sự Tái Lâm của Đức Christ. Ngài là Người Tiên Phong của Kỷ Nguyên Bảo Bình; Công việc mà Thầy đã thiết lập từ ngay trong kiếp vừa qua là Những người Tiên Phong của Ánh Sáng, được tiếp nối bởi năng lượng Bảo Bình trong kiếp tới. Ngài là Đấng Ban Phát Năng Lượng, mang lại "Sự Sống phong phú hơn", trong đó, các năng lượng khai ngộ được đến thông qua NGWS; Thầy là thành viên điển hình của NGWS, và những loại năng lượng được chuẩn bị cho kiếp sắp tới là trục năng lượng chính cho sự tuôn đổ “năng lượng sự sống phong phú hơn”. Ngài là "Đấng Nuôi Dưỡng Đàn Em Nhỏ" vốn là những người con của nhân loại đã sẵn sàng cho sự kích thích tâm thức khi họ chuẩn bị cho một cuộc điểm đạo để tiến vào trạng thái tinh thần sâu sắc hơn; Những tổ chức như SRI, MF được hình thành để chuẩn bị cho các trường nội môn trong tương lai, trong đó nhiệm vụ chính là kích thích tâm thức thông qua Minh Triết Ngàn Đời. Việc Thiết Lập những Liên Giao Chính Đáng trong Nhân Loại là một trong những mục tiêu cốt lõi trong Giáo Huấn của Đức Christ; Sự lan tỏa thiện chí là điều chúng ta dễ dàng nhận thấy và đáp ứng trong các dự án, các khóa huấn luyện mà Thầy thực hiện. Sự Hiển Lộ những Bí Nhiệm của Điểm Đạo, bằng cách tiết lộ Thiên Giới trên thế gian; là một trong những người Tiên Phong trên thế giới diễn giải và minh chứng về các Bí Nhiệm, và chính Thầy, đã thể hiện tiến trình này trong tư cách một Điểm Đạo Đồ.

Chúng ta đã quen thuộc với Thanh Gươm được treo đằng sau nơi Thầy làm việc, biểu tượng của Thanh Gươm Tinh Thần, vốn phân chia giữa cái chân và cái giả, Thầy đã tiến hành xuyên suốt công việc thiết yếu “giải tán Ảo Cảm”, nhiệm vụ cơ bản mà Đức Christ sẽ thực hiện khi Tái Lâm. Sự chuyển tiếp ở chu kỳ hiện tại của Thầy thật kỳ diệu, được Linh Hồn Thầy tiến hành đẹp đẽ theo quan điểm chiêm tinh và nội môn, tự thân nó đã chứng minh “Định Luật Luân Hồi”, vốn sẽ nổi bật trong Giáo Huấn của Đức Christ, đang vận hành tốt đẹp. Một cuộc đời đầy Linh Hứng, một cuộc đời thật đẹp!"

We'd sing and dance forever and a day
We'd live the life we choose
We'd fight and never lose
For we were young and sure to have our way

A post on facebook from Hạnh Phúc Xanh (Sống Foundation), a page supporting reforestation for Vietnam, appeared on my newsfeed today. It was about the 870 m soft-fencing wall protecting the mangrove forest in Vinh Chau, Soc Trang to ensure durability and wave prevention/reduction capabilities to the mangrove plantation area.

It immediately recalled me of memories in Soc Trang, with our GIZ team, building the bamboo wave breakers. Ten years have passed since the first day I came to Soc Trang. Time does fly! Klaus, Bianca, Ms. Kieu, Ms. Thuy, Mr. Binh, Nhung, Tu, AD, Ngoc, Rebecca, Winnie, Roman, Paul, Ira, Max, Mimi... Miss you all. 

Take good care and be happy, wherever you are! <3

Auroville

How was your experience of the Prerna programme in Auroville?

The time in Auroville was my most favorite of the whole trip. We are so grateful to all that we have received from the Prerna programme. We really appreciate your organizing and planning with lots of love and care. It was such an amazing and inspiring learning experience with diverse activities, interactions, reflections. 

What touched you the most?

It was the Silence Day with visiting Matrimandir, cycling in the forest and mindful dinner at Goyos. The whole day was so impressive to me, especially the precious and sacred time in Matrimandir. I felt connected to the Mother, the Universe, the Source, the deepest wellspring of inner peace. I felt embraced by Divine Love and that my prayer would be answered. I was so touched and my tears dropped when I hugged the big banyan tree there.

How helpful was the programme in your learning journey?

The programme is greatly helpful for me since I'm interested in and would like to do something on education for sustainability and moreover, spiritual development and psychic education in the future. I love the ideals of Integral Education and New Economy that Mother and Sri. Aurobindo developed. Reflecting on all the themes, I can "connect the dots", recognizing the interrelation among Education, Economics, Sustainability, Spirituality, seeing bigger picture and realizing the profound philosophy behind.

I would like to express my deepest gratitude to all the Aurovillian people that we met and to the super cool organizing team. 

With Love,

Daisy

Gandhi Ashram (updated on 10.02.2021)

Only one day in Gandhi Ashram, and we’ve learned the big lesson of Love. 

After a long day travelling, we arrived in Ahmedabad late at night and were warmly welcomed for dinner at Sevas Cafe. It was amazing to learn about “gift culture” and to experience it firsthand here. The Cafe was one of Karma Kitchen - “Pay it forward” models, run totally by volunteers. There was no price for any food and drinks. Someone before had already paid for you, and it is up to you to pay how much as you wish for some other after. The volunteers treated us like brothers and sisters and made us feel at home. The energy there was full of love and goodwill. 

We’ve learned to open our hearts more and be able to trust others. 

We’ve learned that when our heart is full of love, service comes naturally and life becomes a service to others. 

As like attracts like, 

love attracts love, 

trust attracts trust, 

goodwill attracts goodwill. 

We’ve learned that love creates family and love expands. 

And from Gandhi, the beautiful and great soul of India, we’ve learned that activism should be rooted in love, not creating difference and separation. “My life is my message”, his famous saying inspires us to “live our messages.” 

How love can be the guidance?

How can we build the society on the base of love?

“I’ve heard that we are born alone and we die alone. But one thing I’ve learned from here is that, we don’t have to live alone.” (Pann)

Yes, we did everything together, participatory decision-making, having lots of fun, and winning collaborative games with no one left behind. Our powerful mantram was “Connect, connect, connect!” And it was amazing how we could connect to each other in such a short time!

Connection and trust are the foundation of any relationship, as well as leadership. I’ve learned that trust is empowerment and real power comes by empowering people. As trust is based on integrity, the leadership development journey is an individual quest for inner transformation, of self-discipline and character building. Thus, leadership is not a position but rather a way of living, leading one’s own life with vision and purpose, manifesting love through selfless-service. And we can help each other along the way.

Thank you all for the happy and inspiring time we had together!

With Love and Gratitude.

Saigon Vegan Festival & Joyful June Dinner

I had a nice evening last Saturday with lots of fun at the vegan pool party in Sun Rise city, enjoying the company of these kind and so friendly new friends. We did some yoga breathing, playing team games ('Plant' vs. 'Power') with some stretching, balance and quiz. Then we enjoyed delicious vegan food together over sunset. We then visited Janny's appartment and playing some strange cards and then the interesting Werewolf Game. Each of us took a role in an imaginary village, where some could become werewolves at nights...

Saigon Vegan Festival is a project by Tyra Nguyen, with monthly Vegan festival events in Ho Chi Minh city, where vegans can come to enjoy food, networking, getting to know each other and playing together. Sharing the dream of animal lovers, vegan practitioners, environmentalist and those who have a beating heart for this wonderful Earth and Life, Tyra initiated a website to promote this true way of living in harmony with ethics and nature. Her websites:

• https://www.facebook.com/saigonveganfestival
• http://saigonveganfestival.com/  

*****

Notes and photos by Tyra on Saigon Vegan Festival

- An exclusive venue with a stunning view and ambience!
- A great stretch with breathing exercise led by Tarun Tri!! (& an unforgettable arm + leg pull game too hehehehe)
- A super fun vegan quiz with a "terrible" vegan punishment!
- A great meal by chef Thanh Phuong with the Cha ca La Vong roll!
- A lovely weather with only a few drops and no rain!!!
- A great host team (Janny, Alexis, Huyen) running up and down, back and forth so we can have a smooth night!
- A strangely non-related party games (Against Humanity + Werewolves) HAHAHA

I've got to say this dinner is so far the most time and effort consuming for me as the organier. And the result turned out so good, with big help from Janny (the co-organizer and host), and Dylan (my source of encouragement and support). For sure, all friends who joined were there to chip in their smiles, cheer, hands, heads, feets... Thank you all from my heart!!!

We had fun, very light yet deep fun!
