Building a big humidity tent for Tulasi. It should do a lot to prevent a spider mite problem this winter. # Stacked 55 bales of hay (40 lbs each) twice today. (Once on the truck, then in the barn.) It cost $220 & we'll need 3 more loads b4 spring. # Powered by Twitter Tools

“Opposing Views”

Yesterday I found a web site called “Opposing Views,” and I just submitted a response to a commentator on the subject of “Should we eat meat?” In this case the subcategory was an article making the ridiculous claim that we should eat meat because it would be too difficult for the Masai people of East [...]

It's a shame that adults put so much time and interest in matters of no importance, neglecting and even ignorant of what's real. Govinda! # http://bit.ly/kTBiQ. If the Bible says all babies who die go to Heaven, then abortion & infanticide would guarantee salvation. Oops! # I was not built for working 9 to 5 [...]

The Swedes have a good idea.

Note from the chart that one meal of beef produces about 30 times as much CO2 emissions as a meal of pea soup and beans. Hopefully Americans will learn to care as much about their environmental impact before it’s too late. http://www.nytimes.com/2009/10/23/world/europe/23degrees.html

It looks like winter. # Going home, stuck in football traffic 90 miles from tomorrow's game. Can people think of nothing better to do than watch pro sports? # What do people who say not to be judgmental think about people who are? # Powered by Twitter Tools

Serving Krishna’s Holy Name, Part 2

My most recent blog entry, on “Serving Krishna’s Holy Name,” (http://oppositerule.govindapeacefarm.com/?p=832) was started as a comment in a discussion on “Bhakti in the Business Place” at Harmonist.us: http://harmonist.us/2009/09/bhakti-in-the-business-place/ It’s been an interesting discussion there. The article was supporting concealed devotion in the place of employment; but I work in a big office, and my interest [...]

Serving Krishna’s Holy Name
