  Hi .... we live in a simple village home... called Moksha...surrounded by lush green forests, a perennial river and a seasonal waterfall.
  
  Moksha is located in a remote village called Aatle in Mandangad, Ratnagiri District, Maharashtra, India.
  
  The closest village/settlement is about a kilometer and a half away from the house.
  
  We are in the continuous process of reinventing the farm based on the ethics of Permaculture / Pranic Healing & Pranic Agriculture ...we actively look forward to host a variety of workshops in this space bringing in regular community interaction and sharing of knowledge.
  
  We live in this house located the middle of nowhere .... it would be great to have you guys from around the world come share this space with us.
