Badi Maa
Oh, Mother
With my thoughts, I touch your feet
With effort and work, I surrender and greet.
The Primordial unending you
The Creator of us and all that exists is you
As an unending garland of cause and effect, you appear
The love in itself as a binding thread you appear
The beauty of the glimmering sunlight in the dew drop
The delight in the harvest of the ripened crop
The love, the law, and the governing principle- all is you
Before long, this fleshy shell too shall disintegrate and dissolve in you
I hope the spirit which sustained this shell will rise and resolve in you
- By Himanshu Singh
Intent
To create something eternal and timeless, unaffected by time or technological
advancements. A space where free-spirited individuals come together, stay, meditate,
and design the course of their lives. It s a home for all, where one's journey is facilitated
to deepen the exploration of one's own being.
It s a home to all… where one s journey get s facilitated to deepen the exploration of
one's own being.
A space where a stream of water flows by. Warm sunlight stays by, a light mild breeze
always comes to meet, the home which is blessed with ancient wisdom s sunlight. Old
trees, old wells, and homes and temples.
An always abundant space with nourishing fruits and flowers and shadowing trees,
love and nourishment for all who pass by. I too wish to surrender myself to this
creation. Where you wake up with awe in appreciation and sheer beauty and
innocence and sacredness

Principles
This land will be devoted only to the intent which is aligned with (Badi ma s) Nature s
education, meditation, and preservation.
This space intends to protect, heal, and take care of individuals who are on a journey to
be free (internally) and …(still articulating)
Income should be generated only to support and expand the impact of the above intent
This will exist irrespective of any individual and any event - it is a continuity of a
movement that will just get larger and more impactful as exploration deepens
Every breath and ounce of the knowledge and insight produced here will keep building
the knowledge and sacredness of this space which will be transferred from one
generation to another...
This is the initiation and home to one larger family, which will expand and bring about
changes wherever Mother Nature requires us to act.
This home will be a temple - a womb of nature, where one will be taken care of till
he/she is ready to fly and also those wanna stay back for their Sadhana
This space will run professionally - for a profit model (profit does not mean only
money). The profit in terms of all kinds of wealth - cyclicity i.e. profit of knowledge and
insight, profit (abundance) in nature s harvest, and so on…
Communication will be in intent to come towards solutions and there should be
mutual exploration of truth, rather than being attached to ideological views.
Local communities are extended part of the family and mutual support system to this
home
