  Beschreibung

  INTRODUCTION
  
  Living from the Heart in the present moment and following that silent voice inside that is joyfull and bold is much easier when we are in company with like minded souls.
  
  That is our purpose in welcoming volunteers, so beautiful living spaces and gardens can be created and maintained with fun, for them and for all of us, to empower each other on the way towards simplicity.
  
  Coming together we feel a deep joy in supporting volunteers and friends eager to know themselves behind their apparent personality, so they can attain a deeper and lasting sense of peace and happiness.
  Sharing life in devotion to Self-discovery is only possible when there is a sincere longing in the heart, a readiness to follow a little discipline and a mature awareness of self-responsibility of one's own emotions and experience.
  
  PRESENTATION
  
  We are on a beautiful 1ha land of fruit trees (Olive, Orange, Lemon, Nispero, Avocado, Almond, fig...) in the outskirts of Orgiva in Las Alpujarras. We are a mix of German, French and Danish and we speak together mostly english and spanish.
  Our finca is within walking distance (15mn) from the lively town of Orgiva, where there are many markets, events and communities of spiritual, holistic and alternative nature (extatic dance , biodanza, hikes in mountains. beach 30mn drive, waterfalls 25mn drive, Buddhist temple ... ) , and still our land has the precious quality of quiet nature with birds singing and beautiful views of the mountains.
  
  We aim to live a simple life with universal spiritual values like gratitude, respect of Mother Earth, kindness, care, charity etc...
  
  
  TYPE OF WORKS
  
  In the comming months we will be focusing on our natural building projects, continuing our wood house project for which we are looking to welcome a few mature, motivated and fit people to join us.
  
  Apart from the building projects there is also work in the garden with caring for the trees and with the continuation of establishing a vegetable and flower garden using homa therapy and permaculture principles, watering, grass strimming and more. As we have only been on the land for 2 years now, and are focussing on buildging shelters, the work of establshing a food forrest is still in its very begining, even though many trees were already here. There can also be jobs like marmelade making, haversting fruits and herbs and sowing seeds using the biodynamic seed calendar.
  
  
  RHYTHM AND EXCHANGE
  
  We follow a daily rythm with 5 hours of work a day/ 5 days a week. Breaks☕, meals prep🔪, dishes 🍽and cleaning of commun areas 🏠are extra🥳🙏, those tasks are shared between everyone. We mostly work 5 hours before lunch (which in spain is around 15h) and afternoon & evening is generally free if daily working hours are completed. When the work and instructions are known, there can also be a flexibility with the placing of the work hours. Some tasks may require a different scheduling as well as the weather changes. In summer it's too hot 🔥 to work in the middle of the day. In winter❄☃️⛄ early mornings are too cold to work.
  
  
  We ask for a minimum stay of 4 weeks🌜 so not only you have time to settle in, know the place and people and become effective with the tasks, but also that a transformation can happen within you🌤🕉 as we aim to support volunteers to raise from ego 🐒😎based consciousness to Heart 💖🤗centered lifestyle. We are delighted to see our volunteers blossoming💫 and opening up and living their lives from a more dynamic and fluidly loving place. Witnessing those transformations is what is motivating us and gives us the strength to recieve volunteers. 💪💪💪
  
  We love playing devotional music together and celebrate with regularity Bhajan & Kirtan (mantra singing) on the land and around in the neighbouring commuity.
  
  
  We are simply learning from each other and supporting each other by doing our best to stay centered in the heart. We are so happy to share from various teachers, for example by sitting in satsang together. As well as we enjoy other helpful tools like aarti, bhajans, kirtan, silent meditation, japa, and charity or seva.
  
  Depending of the time of the year we may have a spiritual program to support visitors in their Self-discovery. On the weekend there is also a program yet it is optional.
  
  We sing together bhajans/kirtan (mantra singing), read or listen to satsang and spiritual stories and practice devotional activities such as Aarti and Agnihotra.
  
  Usually once/twice a week there will also be bhajans and kirtan with our local Sacred Song Circle in a spiritual center in town and around in the area.
  
  On Friday evenings there is possibility to join Purna satsang with interactions where you might ask any question and receive guidance into the Heart  (if you comply with requirements)
  
  ***
  
  We enjoy a relaxed atmosphere within a certain discipline, to live in a clean & loving space. We eat vegetarian (plant based nutrition and sometimes dairy), no alcohol, drugs and tobacco. We are not able to receive smokers nor people trying to stop smoking or stop drinking alcohol because the dependency can drag people's attention in a different space than the one we wish to keep, and it becomes a strain for us to support people who are not really ready to keep themselves free of intoxicants.
  
  We cultivate a healthy hygiene and clean, with respectful clothing adjusted to circonstances ; We love there to be an awareness that this place is dedicated to Self-realisation and also that we are coming together from different ages and cultural backgrounds, and so we wish that all can be comfortable.
  
  Apart from a sense of being useful, effective, punctual and easy going, some sensitivity is a much appreciated quality.
  
  We cannot afford the cost of the stay for volunteers who get temporarily sick or need extra rest, so it would be nessecary for us to ask for a very reasonable economical contribution if volunteers are not able do the 25h per week and their part of the household tasks. If such a situation arises we need to be informed as soon as possible, so we can organise the team.
  We are as well not able to receive volunteers who are mentally unstable, working with mental illness or deep struggle, or do not have a health insurance covering them in spain.
  
  Who are we?
  Our project is just in the starting up phase and we are excited to be in the trust of where it might take us. We have been on the land for 2 years now.
  Michael & Guta and live part of the time in Germany and part time in the finca.
  Bruno has his daughter Alma with him half the time, and Ana and has her daughter Aluna with her half of the time. There is also our old placid dog Roco and the very cudly cat Maou and her wilder friends.
  
  We are in the phase of building up and renovating living spaces, so we can stay more grounded on the land and also receive volunteers in more proper spaces. We have an old caravan and a tiny house for volunteer housing. Apart from that we receive volunteers in tents (with matrasses) in the warmer months of the year. We have one big room, Tila, which serves as kitchen, eating space & common room. We also use our newly build temple Sri Ardineshwara Mandir for our gatherings.
  We have two bathrooms and two really beautiful compost toilets with mountain view. There is lots of outside spaces with trees, and several structures in the making.
  
  If your Inner Guidance or intuition tells you that it may be a good place for you, then you are most welcome to get in touch!
  We look forward to hearing from you and we hope you'll find support for your Inner discovery with us.
