It was not a difficult decision to make the very first post for 2017 to be about the importance of one hectare of land. I have read this amazing series of books called the Ringing Cedars of Russia by Vladimir Megre. The following contents of this post will revolve mainly around that book so there may be some spoilers on some parts of the books.
Why give so much importance on a piece of hectare of land?
Centuries, maybe even millennia, have passed when humans were still connected and in harmony with their lands. The land provided them with food, clothing, shelter, and all their other needs. People gave their love to the land and the land reflected it back to them such as the Sun has continuously reflected back to Earth our Love. Somewhere, at some point in history, people were enticed to be separated from their lands, do other jobs, forget the coolness of the soil, the tenderness of the grass, and the refreshing spring water. At some point in history, people were made to believe that to have a "civilized" sense of existence, we must graze down the forests, create cold, lifeless structures, and create a network of roads. Many children in this current era are born with all these technocratic creations already available, and many are made to think that this is how we should live. We have forgotten who we are. We have lost our sense of self because the moment we are born, most of us are fed as slaves to the system. This is the current reality. In the history of the human race, an immeasurable amount of blood has been spilled on quarrels of land. Taking away the land from the people equates to losing their freedom.
Why is this so?
Anastasia (the main character in Megre's book) makes everything clear as to how a hectare of land is essential to the growth and creation of a fully-fledged human.
A hectare of land has an area of 10,000 square meters(imagine about 24 basketball courts). This hectare of land is the start of everything. On this piece of land, the humans become true co-creators in all of its facets.
Food Needs
A hectare of land produces more than enough food for the family and provides a surplus for selling. Being able to produce your own food needs implies far deeper than simply satisfying the physical needs. Being able to grow your own food means you no longer take part in the decaying food system offered by system. You are able to touch, to feel, and to appreciate the food you are eating. You are aware of what goes into the soil, what amount of care is given to your food. As a parent, it is of utter importance that you are aware of what you feed to your children. Garbage in, garbage out. If you feed your child unmindfully, this will not only affect the physical growth of the child, but also the psychological side as well.
I can only imagine the happiness when the day comes that I am able to have children and feed them the fruit from the tree that I planted on the day they were born. This connection is unbreakable. You planted the fruit trees with all the loving thoughts for your children and wife, then you take care of it with all the love you can give. Finally, the fruits will be harvested full of Love and offer it to your family. This, I feel, is the true connection among generations.
Shelter
On this land, you build your own house. You breathe the air, the pollens that your land provides. You are always at home and feel the protective energy from it. In every moment, you are in touch with the Creations and the Creations can give you all the insights and teachings they can give. The shelter will be built with only loving intentions for your family, for the creations and for the future co-creations. You are always surrounded by the light you radiate as your land reflects it back to you. You live in the Kingdom of the Creations by the Creator. You are always in the Presence of the Creator's shelter. Your home is no longer just the place where you sleep, your home is the whole land itself.
Child-rearing
On this land, you will be able to raise your child as a Creator. The child will always be directly in touch with the Creations and he or she will obtain direct insight from these. As you work on your own land, you will be able to teach the child the deep connections of Nature. The child will no longer be bound by the four corners of the classroom, the illusory grading system, the corrupted history, and the false social system. Instead, the child will be free, free to be creative, to explore, to fail, to see reality, the Creations as they should be seen. You will co-create with the children, produce the food with them, cook the food with them, and eat with them. The importance of life, their purpose, the beauty and grace of the Creations will be amplified through the child's eyes.
Place for the raising of consciousness
On this land, you and your family will be able to raise your consciousness and be in direct communication with the Creator through the Creations. In my experience, just by simply mindfully observing the plants and animals in my land, I am able to attain insights that I have never attained before. The food that you produce and eat, the shelter you have built, and ethers you breathe- all are coming from the land that you have offered your Love, and this will surely help you be more aware and conscious of your Being. The effect is not only on you and your family but also with your friends and visitors. They will be able to feel your love and energy and hopefully spark something within them to pursue the same course of lifestyle as well.
These are just a few points of the importance of the hectare that the Books share and there are much more that I have missed and I feel that you yourself must read.
Sadly, the reality is not so friendly. Lands these days are expensive and to build a homestead, it takes money and a lot of time. Right now, I am in the process of trying to find the answer as to how to make things quicker for other people.
Hopefully, I will be able to find the answer soon and help people co-create more hectares of Love.
Let us help each other out!
I am waiting for you, let us Co-create!
Let's plant trees!
Let's build a house!
Let's Co-create!
Happy New Year!
