Oasis Organic Farm and Gaushala…....A Place on the earth where I want to take my family for Holiday


Dear Readers, 
It may look strange to most of readers, but really my whole family consisting my darling wife and little cutie want to go to place where one river, mountain, organic farms, cows, temples coincides. Obviously it depends on one’s nature and choice about places, but luckily our choice is common in this regard.

I had been to this place oasis farm twice in recent years, now just look at Oasis Valleys located @ CHANOD , 70 KM away from Vadodara, a famous city in our Gujarat.  It has

  •          Holy River Narmada just 100 Mt. Away.
  •          It is located on the river banks of Narmada, so there are plenty little mountain for trekking, playing etc.
  •          There are organic farms where we can walk around, can do labour work on our own, can collect the fruits………….do whatever we like to do.
  •          There is one gaushala based on desi cows only (which I like most ) with plenty of small calves, Bullock cart ride etc.
  •          There is one institute over there where we can volunteer, where we can teach our liking/expertise subject to others and can learn whatever we like to learn. There are 24 different activities going on in different classes.
  •          And finally in nearby town of Chanod (1.5Km away), we can find multiple temples where we can worship, can do pooja-vidhi etc. There are more than 100 temples in this town.
  •          There are so many tourist location in and around this place like kevadiay colony(Sardar Sarovar Dam) , dence forest, Garudeshwar etc.  There are so many old ancient monument you can find on road also like tensing lake (5 KM before chanod), dhabhi fort (20KM before chanod)  
I will go for river bath, trekking, gaushala seva and doing innovation in organic farming during my stay. So as mentioned above each of us will get our liking things there and that is the key for inner enjoyment at any place. Otherwise there are so many tourist destinations where we can get good photo frames, but joy is missing. You can have some very good photographs to show others, but you don’t have anything to show for yourself. Here at this place we can have satisfaction, memory for lifetime, and above all one goal to replicate the same.   

This post is meant for indiblogger and www.yatra.com contest and to all my blog readers to spend their holiday with nature. Here are some photographs of my earlier visit……..

Mobile charging by piezoelectricity.........save money, save earth.....

Hi Friends,



Recently, I got mail from Indiblogger for the contest as below:

Franklin Templeton Investments  partnered the TEDxGateway Mumbai in December 2012.

Just for curiosity, I have browsed the video from the website, Initially I thought that there will be more NGO stuff rather than real innovation, but finally I got some technical stuff, which can be called real innovation. One should go through following link to have detailed idea about the innovation : 


Though I have not published any research idea, but I am also into same field. I am associated with desi cows and many gaushala, so I have also developed and seen cow urine based charger and electricity related stuff.  I have done some advance testing and practical also, but this thing invented by Joao lammoglia is really far ahead better, one can charge mobile through him/her self only. No need to be dependent others.  This is truly amazing. Piezoelectricity is not a new thing, but to utilize it in such a way is appreciable.

One can charge his/her mobile while one is sleeping, walking, in traffic etc..……you can say it anywhere/anytime/any position free charging. 

This will not only saves earth but also saves our money.  Such idea must be propagated and available in open market immediately.

Hobby Sharing................OLD COIN COLLECTION from 18th Century onwards...........Part 2

Hi Friends, 

This post is linked to this one Part-1, where I had promised to post photos of my coin and stamp collection. Yes , it has taken much more time but at last here it is. 

I have collected this coins and stamps wherever I got chance, like at my uncle's place, from mela's (fair), from pasti, from older one etc. 

Also, if anyone interested further, in Gujarat there are many societies active for the stamp and coins individually.
  1. Gujarat philately Society : Monthly meeting on every second sunday @ Sanidhya building, Ashram road, Ahmedabad. A Group of collectors, distributor and professionals also, but if one is die hard stamp collector, he must definately go there.
  2. Gujarat Coin Society:  Monthly one meeting on first sunday@ nr.Lucky theatre, Ahmedabad. Same as above. 

Stamp and coins have become source of income for many, as locally and globally market demand is very much high. To prove the same, there are more number of dealers and investor rather than actual collector in this field. 

Now some photographs. 

Stamps from 1960-1980

One vision, one modal and want to spread it to max………………holy mother cow.

Dear Readers,

Today, I am going to write on activity in which I am fully involved. I have write one booklet also, but now, as I am involved now into practical things rather than theoretical things, I would like to share it with others also, so that it spread out to max.


Social Cause: 
Whenever any cow is aging or got any disease or stop giving milk, owner tend to sell it, which ultimately goes into butcher house.
Our  vision (problem solution):   
Make gaushala, trusts and individuals self sustainable based on cow, so that holy cow never got slaughtered.
Green Methodology, process and technology:  
1) Apart from milk, use cow urine and cow dung at max
2) concentrate more on Ghee and buttermilk selling instead of Milk.
3) Use solar energy, gobar gas technology, bullock run generator, bullock run Ghani etc.



Our Current mission:  We have almost set up one Model Gaushala where one can see how we have used cow urine, cow dung, solar energy, gobar gas and bullock.  We are making this model more and more feasible, viable so that even individual dairy farmer can also take an advantage.  With this model holy cow will definitely get a benefit which is our vision also, but individual, trust will also get more than that. 

In short, we are going to integrate natural resource (solar, wind, bullock) with  latest technology  (Solar water plants, solar cooker, biogas plant, wind energy, mechanical parts) keeping ancient practice as a base to conserve holy cow (Gaumata,Gomata). 

We have already taken step in this direction and used solar energy for making 2-3 cow products, currently which is possible through electricity or coal. Same products have been tested in laboratory also and all reports are positive. 

We have made our all rounder team which has their own domain knowledge of dairy, marketing, public involvements etc, but our team will do all basic activities at Gaushala first and then all their domain activities.
This is totally open model and we want to spread it to max. We believe that cow based farming is the only solution for the country in the long run which was practiced during ancient time. We are going to integrate this movement with organic farming also. 


Though it is contradicting with our main goal which is about to make individual, gaushala or trust self sustainable, but still we want to have it on http://www.isb.edu/idiya/ , so that it can reach out at national level. More and more people know about it and think and act.
 

Those who can read Gujarati, can go through this........about us.
