Permaculture Plants & trees play a vital role in creating
a healthy environment.
They purify and revitalize the air which we breathe, by removing harmful gases.
Plants also help in absorbing significant amount of harmful radiations as researched
by NASA in USA.
Vastu guides us for the plantation of different species of plants in
different directions of land/building to achieve maximum benefits. It also guides
about the harmful plants, which should be avoided and also guides about various
aspects, for instance, the shadow of trees should not fall on the roof of the
building between 9:00 A.M. to 3:00 P.M., etc.
PERMACULTURE DEFINITION.......
Permaculture is a word coined by Bill Mollison. Its copyright is vested in the
Permaculture Institutes and their College of Graduates, and is guarded by them
for the purpose of consistent education.
"Permaculture (permanent agriculture) is the conscious design
and maintenance of agriculturally productive ecosystem, which have the diversity, stability
and resilience of natural ecosystem."
It is the harmonious integration of landscape and people providing their food,
energy, shelter, and material and non-material needs in a substantial way.
Without permanent agriculture there is no possibility of a stable social order.
Permaculture design is a system of assembling conceptual, material, and strategic
components in a pattern, which functions to benefit life in all its forms.
The philosophy behind permaculture is one, of working with, rather than against nature;
of protracted and thoughtful observation rather than protracted thoughtless action;
of looking at systems in all their functions rather than asking only one yield of them;
and of allowing systems to demonstrate their own evolutions.
The word "permaculture" can be used by anybody adhering to the ethics and
principles expressed herein. The only restriction on use is that of teaching;
only graduates of a Permaculture Institute can teach "Permaculture", and they
adhere to agreed-on curriculum developed by the college of graduates of the
Institutes of Permaculture.
