Perfect Village Communities "P.V.C Burundi"

Ananda Festival of Bliss is a festival for those who believe in and work towards making the world a better place. It’s an adventure through art and nature, a dive for activists and dreamers, young people and families, lovers of ecology and warriors of light.

If we want to be free, if we want to live a life of profound wholeness and purpose, then we need to discover and become grounded in the source of our Being. In this weekend retreat we will dive deeply into the experience of meditation, not through a technique, but through discovering our natural state. Experiencing awakened consciousness and sharing that discovery with others is the most fulfilling and liberating experience we can have. When we discover direct access to our inherent freedom we find ourselves in communion with Life, fearlessly open to the future, and able to respond with clarity, creativity and spontaneity. The retreat will be held in silence except for teaching periods and question and answer sessions. No previous meditation experience is necessary and people from all faiths and spiritual orientations can benefit.

Después de varias semanas de dudas por la escasez de materia prima, hemos decidido empezar la recogida de la oliva para hacer nuestro aceite. Esto es un llamamiento a aquellas personas a las que les gustaría probar esta hermosa experiencia de salir por las mañanas en equipo al campo, con sol y tiempo fresco, a batear y peinar olivos centenarios para recoger la preciada oliva, en alternancia con la actividad en el molino, limpiando y moliendo las olivas, ayudando a montar la torre para la prensa y viendo salir el dorado líquido (aún un poco negro por estar mezclado con el alperchín), para decantarlo luego en las bañeras del sótano. Una ocasión única para descubrir una actividad tradicional, llevada a cabo con métodos tradicionales, con un grupo de personas entusiastas. Condiciones: Necesitamos máx. dos voluntarios para el equipo que deberían inscribirse en la página WWOOF (http://ruralvolunteers.org) Inicio 14 de noviembre, duración prevista: 3 semanas Interesados ponerse en contacto con Charlotte lo antes posible a través del correo: voluntariado@losportales.net ¡Gracias y bienvenidos!
