A building site as a place of spiritual
practice. The site as of June 2005.
The sub-floor is built and under covers.

Work in progress.
Building is likely to re-commence in
January 2006. By late 2006 this vital first
building should be complete.

Typical ponga tree. These abound on the property, which is nearly all native New
Zealand bush, much of it regenerating since the Sudarshanaloka Trust bought the land in 1993. |

View from just outside community house - breakfast outside while looking at this in the summer. |
|
Beautiful peak overlooking the property. |

Looking up the length of the Valley. |

One of many waterholes. Great for swimming in the summer time. |
