Roadmap to Village Prosperity | Paani Fdn India #2 

What was the joke in Marathi language by the good doctor?

i thought that resulted in more maharashtrians?

@@nv3796 sorry not audible enough to understand

This is so wonderful, not only the water which is amazing but the farming practices.

I was thinking the same thing! I'd love to start this in Southern Arizona!

Good luck the United States is owned by corporation. They do not care about the people the future the environment resources other than money

@@pattibrown1809 It takes normal people to start. Look forward to seeing your progress!

@@pattibrown1809if you succeed in doing so, please share how? I don’t see a direction on how can we bring city residents and officials together to do something of this sort.

I believe the Work Projects Administration did some water catchment programs. But in America every generation has their parrot call version of "CoMmUnIsM" that prevents common sense practices of benefiting ALL Americans.

But we need him here in the US, too! How about shared custody and he can post videos from both countries every month? ❤

Thanks sweetie.much :-)

The technology they focused on was self sustenance - where you recycle everything within the village, the cow dung, the worms, the ducks, everything. Villagers usually cook with cow dung cakes. Eww, but sustainable.

Florida too! We have the best spring system in the world and it’s currently controlled by corporate greed

Try contacting some dry-land reservations, just tell them to watch all the videos. Some of the projects are pretty easy.

Same here in india in cities and suburb but Indian villages are different. Everyone help, support and care for each other. They especially come together and set their perry fights and disputes aside for a bigger cause.

Wenn man weiß wer die NGO's finanziert, dann weiß man was deren Ziel ist Die Bauern abhängig von der Agrarindustrie, mit ihren Herbiciden, Insektiziden, Pestiziden GMO Saatgut zu machen. Ein Teufelkreis.

There is a concept in Maharashtra india from millenia long before about "self sufficient villages". And the whole structure of a village, nation(kingdom) and culture is based on this self sufficiency. In village trade was happening without money as they would trade something for something. There were 18 types of professions in a village like lohar(smithy), kumbhar(pottery), these professions run in family and they mastered their craft(cause their whole lives were centered around those professions). So after the British rule they introduced new concepts. And these kind of structures collapsed. So when you visit India, you will find cities and villages having totally different environment, mentality, cultural differences. Any nation or society is strong when their base is strong, at the base level they don't have to rely on outside influence to survive.

take your villagers ones who are supportin and those against include women young kids youth too they will be motivated to take up labor work for their village , take them to these places hire bus or go in train , show these videos, including dhun they turned desert into green natural way

राजस्थान में भी इस तरह का काम हुआ है और वो सब गांववालो ने मिलकर किया है Dhun NGO जयपुर के मानवेंद्र और Maruvan के गौरव गुजर ये काम कर रहे है आप उनसे सलाह ले सकते हो।

A couple of the videos that will be featured in this series are in Rajasthan, in the village of Laporiyah south of Jaipur, and in the Thar Desert with GRAVIS Jodhpur, so I think you will find some useful information for your context

But if you had better politicians who are less corrupt, much much more could have been done much earlier. Consider China. Back in the early 1990s, China’s GDP was about the same as India’s. Today, China’s GDP is ~ 10x bigger. China’s politicians were not much better than India’s but that slight “betterness” between them is the reason why China uplifted 1/2 a BILLION people out of poverty. You should visit China one day.

Politicians help too, especially with permissions and getting people together. I attended one event where police was working 10 days to organise that event, crowd management etc. event was for same paani foundation and politicians were discussing water policy, frame wages etc.

@@lamdao1242also no instability with one party rule, we are too diverse too have that.

@@lamdao1242 Chinese leaders who killed millions of there ppl.....no thank u

❤

More to come!

I hope tjese ideas can be implemented in Rajasthan as wrll. I know tjere are several projects that have implemented water harvesting via permaculture principles, and are rewilding and re-greening desertified areas in Rajasthan, in a small scale.

There's the Dhun program in Rajasthan doing the same thing

Exactly right ❤

Yes! When you travel around with Dr Pol, you feel like you are accompanying a true mover of people

West will not approve him

There are a lot of social challenges and land ownership patterns that make this same thing tricky in the USA. The question is where in the USA can landholders get together at the watershed scale? Once people can unite in their basic intentions within a watershed, then it is easy

@@amillison I'm personally trying in my area, the highlands of the Mohave desert in Arizona. A few of my neighbors have seen what we are doing with only a shovel and are impressed. We've shown those how to make small changes in their runoff to recharge and repair. We've managed to bring a lot of biodiversity back into the areas we've worked. Thank you for sharing this and bring it to people like me who see the difference.

@@amillisonI have seen a couple of videos where a group of people come together and buy land for the purpose of creating something like a permaculture food forest or simply to conserve in accordance to the same principles like the conservation efforts in the village. I believe that has some benefit to it - (1) We don’t have to get into complexity of getting state and government and all city residents to be on same page because as of now that seems a daunting task. (2) With some ownership; commitment becomes easier and so does the motivation because each stakeholder realizes that it’s going to help them to get involved. I would like to mention Ithaca Eco Village; where on the land it’s 90% farm and 10% housing. It’s not entirely per permaculture principles but it doesn’t exhaust the land with construction like most city dwellings do. Is that something you and other permaculture specialists can help organize and invite people who are interested with ownership prospects? I have seen tiny home dwellings that could be improved by incorporating building a food forest plus giving people little space to call home; not rent. Because another aspect that people are fighting against is dwindling home ownership because renting has become a lucrative business and one that people have no control or ownership.

​@@ourrockydreamontheelephant4188that's awesome, keep inspiring your neighbours. ❤

It is a necessary form of communication in India (especially the South)

Haha...so true....I remember my German friend copying me every time I would do the side nod... 😂😂

@@amillison The state of Maharashtra is part of Western India, not south India (although it is geographically contiguous with south Indian states, central India and other western Indian states and geographically closer to south India than to north India). Mahrashtra is part of Indo-aryan linguistic culture prevailing in North India compared dravidian liguistic culture prevailing in south India. Marathi, the official language of Maharashtra is an Indo-Aryan language.

@@knightatdawndonbynight8432 You have nothing better to do than come here and parrot your irrelevant foreign textbook theories. What the heck does "Indo-Aryan" and "dravidian" have got to do with this video. Your entire perspective needs a big correction. Maharashtra has always been part of the south in the ancient Indian understanding of their own land. The land south of the Vindhya is called Dakshinaapatha. And the various groups of Maharashtra are counted under the "Pancha draavida" regions "five southern" regions. There is no such thing as "linguistic culture" it's an absurd term. You clearly have zero idea of the immense commonalities between the culture of various regions and the languages as well. This is what happens when you sit in your ivory towers and don't know what is on the ground. Fool.

This is something every time I met someone out of India, keep looking when I am going to shake my head 😂😂😂😂

If you have funding for more videos, let me know :-}

@@amillison I'll start buying lotery tickets, and maybe I'll win a million or two, and forward it to you. LOL Absolutely Great Job, I am a big fan, in a tiny wild life habitat in the middle of very sandy soil in Minnesota, where winter can last 8 months.

I think it can be done in Indonesia with great success

As long as you have gratitude towards nature and humanity, keep that faith alive. Keep spreading that faith. Love and light will always win. Tejomaya

So glad you're in the PDC and Kelda is a really good instructor :-)

Make soil.

Thanks for your support Jon :-)

You could reference them to my short on that exact question. I could have gone on, and on but I think it's one way to summarize what it means. :) Check it out here! ru-vid.comBfN5QGgPL4k?feature=share

They deserve so much credit and respect! :) Thank you for watching.

It's amazing seeing the progression. It's quite the difference indeed!!!

100%!

Cooperative movement and co like satyamev jayte paani foundation exist in Western or southern India like Karnataka. It should be taken nationwide where there are no NGOs to bring together the people.
