#Vivekanada lived a brief but intense life, committed to building the Nation by building the Youth. The greatest tribute we can pay to him will be to strive relentlessly for a rich and abundant Bharat. A Nation is only as rich as its soil and people. On this #NationalYouthDay, may the youth commit their Voice to #SaveSoil of Bharat and restore abundance to this Land. Let’s make it happen. -Sg
Do you have 🐜 ants in your garden?
If you do, it’s actually a good 👍 sign! Although they may be annoying if they get to the 🧁 sugar jar in your house or disrupt a summer picnic, ants play a very important role in the environment.
They perform many ecological roles that are beneficial to all life forms, including the suppression of 🪲 pest populations and aeration of the soil. Ants aerate the soil, allowing 💧water and oxygen to reach plant roots. They take seeds 🌱 down into their tunnel to eat the nutritious elaiosomes that are part of the seed. These seeds often sprout and grow new plants (seed dispersal). Ant nests improve soil fertility mainly through the accumulation of refuse materials. Ants are even being researched as a possible bioindicator of soil quality.

How does soil organic matter form 🍂 - and why do we think it takes 🕰️ sooo long?
While it is true that it can take 1,000 years or more for soil to form, that is only true for making it “from scratch” - in the case of soil, from the rock 🪨 foundation. That is not the problem the world is facing. In most places, soil has already been formed, but it has been depleted of its 🌳 organic matter.
🙏Thankfully, the process of increasing soil organic matter is a continuous process. With fresh pieces of organic matter constantly being added and decomposed, soil continually gets replenished. This process can be sped up with the various practices of composting, which quickly transform animal and plant matter into usable compost that enriches the soil.

Did you know?
Most forest carbon is found in the living biomass (44 percent) and soil organic matter (45 percent), with the remainder in dead wood and litter.

While it is easy to believe that one year is too brief a duration for irrevocable soil damage to occur, the reality paints an entirely different picture. Close to 24 billion tons of soil is washed or carried away due to destructively intensive agriculture every year.
Spreading the soil message is a pressing priority. All it takes is two minutes of your time to make yourself heard. Write to your leaders now!

Each plate you see represents not just a feast for the senses but also a reminder of the urgent need to protect the soil beneath our feet. Only healthy soils can produce healthy crops that in turn provide the nourishment we need to stay healthy as well. How much of the food on your plate comes from rich soil?

With the Pancha Bhuta Kriya, Sadhguru opens up a unique opportunity for everyone to benefit from the powerful Yogic process of bhuta shuddhi, meaning “purification of the elements”, which would otherwise require intense sadhana.
This powerful process happens in Dhyanalinga on every Shivratri, which is the 14th day of the lunar month.
Pancha Bhuta Kriya helps stabilize the body and mind and balance psychological instabilities. It is especially beneficial for people with weak constitutions and those suffering from disturbed sleep and chronic fear.
Pancha Bhuta Kriya program date: 13 September
Registrations Closing date: 3 September

#Savesoil started by @SadhguruJV under @cpsavesoil is global movement aiming to create policies where our soil should have minimum 3-6% organic content. Reason? Food security, coping with global warming, famines, water scarcity n plenty more. Action now : https://t.co/rVFd4cCzHK
On a cycle journey across the country with the motto of uniting people to #SaveSoil, Shri @MohitNiranjan12 from Lalitpur, UP received a warm welcome today from Hon'ble Minister Shri @rajaaswain & Principal Secretary Dr. @arvindpadhee at Krushi Bhavan, Bhubaneswar.
Indeed, empowering Indian Army @laSouthern with tools of Classical Hatha yoga is equipping them with a still and agile body and mind which will be extremely beneficial if done consistently. #IshaYogaForSoldiers
Bringing back minimum 3% organic content in soil, can act as one of the biggest carbon sinks and help reducing global warming and overall natural calamities that humnakind will go through in near future. #SaveSoil
