SRİDHAR GOVİNDA SEVA ASHRAM

SCS SRİDHAR GOVİNDA SEVA ASHRAM

ANTALYA-TURKEY

Wellcome!

We  restorated a village house, which is 450 years old, for four years as an ashram. It is 1300 mt high on the Taurus mountains. Srila Gurudeva  named this ashram as Sridhar Seva Ashram. Mahananda Prabhu who is living at Nabadwip Ashram, advised us to add Govinda to the name of the ashram also. This magic place is surrounded  by a very big garden.

Awakening with a various types of birds singing like partridges, nightingales and the bells of the herd on the dawn , you can fill up yourself the fresh air of the mountains.

On this natural circumstances, you feel the ashram life that fills your mind & spirit with the positive energy.

We usually do kirttan on the wooden veranda’s of the ashram  which sees all the valley. Also there are a lot of  tracking paths on the mountains near the ashram which you can feel the nature  for japa meditation.

PREPARING GHEE (PURE BUTTER)

PREPARING GHEE (PURE BUTTER)

Ghee is a healthy alternative to butter and oils. Ghee is an ingredient in many Middle Eastern dishes. It is also called clarified butter. It is available at natural foods and Indian product stores or you can prepare the ghee yourself. Is an unsalted butter that has been cooked to remove not only its butter fat solids, as in drawn butter, but also all water — so as to produce a food that contains no molecular oxygen, and is thus extremely storable and not subject to rancidity as in normal cooking oils. The health advantages accrue from the fact that ghee contains no oxidized cholesterol, the kind which leads to free radical damage in the cells of the body. Ingredients

•1 kg unsalted butter

•cheesecloth

Directions

1.1

Heat unsalted butter in a stainless steel, thick-bottomed sauce pan, over a low-medium flame.

2.2

Allow the oil (ghee) to separate from the milk solids.

3.3

Periodically remove the foam that accumulates at the top.

4.4

When the oil is clear in color, the ghee is done.

5.5

Remove from the stove and allow to cool for a while, than carefully pour off the ghee into a wide-mouthed jar through several layers of cheese cloth secured to the opening of the jar or through a fine mesh strainer.

6.6

Cover the jar and store at room temperature.

THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IN THE WORLD: COOKING!

In the first years of my marriage I did not like cooking a lot. I left home very early to go to the work and came back very late. I only cook on Sundays and put them into the deep freeze. And we ate those foods all week. But we did not realize that in deed we were eating garbage : ) (more…)
