I have a gardening tip today. Hugelkultur is a permaculture technique that creates garden beds by applying layers of logs, branches, leaves, and other organic plant debris with compost and soil. It is typically started in the fall. This method has been used by natural farmers and gardeners globally for centuries. Hugelkultur, otherwise known as hill gardens, are perfect for those with lots of fallen trees on their property. To begin, lay the biggest, most dense materials on the bottom. Start out with logs and stumps, then add on smaller branches and twigs, then layer with leaves or straw. Lastly, cover the mound with a few inches, or around 10 centimeters, of well-aged compost and soil. This technique requires minimal supplemental water since rotting wood acts similar to a sponge and it absorbs, retains, and releases water, which is helpful during periods of low rainfall or drought in the drier seasons. Hugelkultur has a natural design and mimics a forest floor, creating beauty and elegance for all to enjoy. Furthermore, the various decomposing material results in vast biodiversity in the soil, thus replenishing our Earth with life.
This seems like a good moment to focus the laughter searchlight on the joke of the day. It’s called “Two Principles.”
A healthy elderly gentleman shares his tips with a young man:
“Son, if you want to live a comfortable and healthy life, you must follow these two principles.”
“Yes. Please tell me, sir. What are the two principles?”
“First, don’t always listen to your wife's instructions. Second, eat a healthy vegan diet, exercise every day, and follow your doctor's orders.”
“But my wife is my doctor. So, what do I do?”
?!
And now we have a heartline from Yu-Wen in China:
Dearest Master, I miss You! My one and only best, most reliable, and most powerful Love! Not long ago, I received an urgent task to be a news anchor for Supreme Master TV. I had only 12 days to prepare. I cherished this great opportunity very much. With the meticulous Blessings and care of Master’s Power, my spirituality developed and progressed day after day till I completed the news recording successfully.
In the process of recording, I saw a photo of Master hanging on the studio wall. Her long skirt was waving, just like physically. I knew that Master was encouraging me! Indeed, as I was reading the positive news in English, I entered Samadhi: The recording room disappeared. The two light reflectors in front of me were extending infinitely to take me to a boundless scenery where rivers, oceans, and skies all merged in one. I was reporting positive news in front of a big river and sea where the dimension was extended into an infinite void…
Reporting with such sincerity, joyfulness, and total concentration, I felt that time had stopped. Only I alone had merged into the Universe. My voice of reporting became a pure, elated, positive, great vibration, fully charged with Love and Blessing. It became one with the sea, sky, and the whole Universe... It’s Master who allows me to experience the truth that every program in Supreme Master TV benefits the world with Master’s Blessing Power. It’s my honor to have this rare opportunity in eons, to work for Supreme Master TV.
Countless bows to thank my Lord, my revered Master, for Blessing me! Cordially and sincerely, I wish Master good luck and that all Her wishes be accomplished! I sincerely wish Supreme Master TV team all the best! Kissing Your holy feet, Yu-Wen from China
Exuberant Yu-Wen, It is delightful to read about your sublime inner vision.
Master shares Her Love with you: “Gracious Yu-Wen, thank you for being a good instrument to serve the world. True devotion is a virtue to every spiritual practitioner. I am hopeful that if we continue to spread the word about the benevolent vegan way of life, our world may stand a chance to be salvaged. Do continue to practice earnestly, and you will reap the fruits in Heaven. May you and the helpful people of China be uplifted by Buddha’s tender Love. And keep up your pure spirit, my precious!”
