How to make Enzyme from Kitchen Waste

Recently I attended the Art of Living TRM (Teacher's Refresher Meet) in Bangalore Ashram. During that time, Swami Brahmatej explained how to make Enzyme at home with Kitchen waste. I tried the same and explaining the details below:

It is better to understand the uses of enzyme, how to prepare it, before you start working on it. This website has more details: http://www.justlifeshop.com/turn-garbage-into-enzyme/

To prepare the enzyme we need 1 part Jaggery, 3 parts Kitchen waste (Vegetable and Fruit peels) and 10 parts water.

I am using 500gms Jaggery, 1.5 Kg of Kitchen waste, 5 liters of water filtered from Aquaguard.

Bought Jaggery from Nilgris, the same is shown below:

Smash the Jaggery into small pieces as shown below:

Put the Jaggery into 5 liters of water and mix it well. You can see the level increasing from 5 liters to 5.5 liters in the bucket.

I have only 500gms of kitchen waste (Vegetable and Fruit peels, measured the weight in a near by shop), put the same in the bucket (the level has increased to 6 liters)

I just kept the bucket aside with a closed lid (no silver or glass only plastic container). Will have to put 1kg of kitchen waste more to it later.

After about 2 days, I got 1Kg of kitchen waste (from our kitchen) and put the same in the bucket (the level has increased to 7 liters).

Now, the ratio is 1 part Jaggery (500gms), 3 parts Kitchen waste (1.5 Kg) and 10 parts water (5 liters). Hopefully, I will have the enzyme ready for the new year.

Art of Living TRM, Don't miss it!

Recently I attended the Art of Living TRM (Teachers Refresher Meet) at Bangalore Ashram.
Just thought of sharing my experience here:

Initially, I thought of not attending it, since I was not feeling well. Somehow managed to catch a train to Bangalore and landed in the ashram on time.

TRM started on Saturday morning with Yoga and long kriya. We had various processes, like discussing the challenges faced by the teachers, Gurudev came several times during the TRM and gave us solutions to all the problems.

A new process by Kashiji on Sunday morning was great to start the day. We have been given
an hands on experience, instead of simply talking about it. Learnt something new on the detoxification.

On one of these days, during Satsang Gurudev talked about Superbrain yoga and showed us a video from youtube. It's actually the Thoppukaranam that we have been doing for 1000's of years in India. Marketed as Superbrain yoga now.

During the TRM, I was fortunate to meet teachers from all over tamilnadu. Even teachers from outside tamilnadu.

On the last day of TRM, Swami Brahmatej's explanation on making Enzyme from Fruit/Vegetable waste was a wonderful session. Going to try that in couple of days. Found this website related to enzyme making on the net:

Talking about the stay in the ashram during the TRM, it was excellent. The room, atmosphere, facilities everything was great.

Gurudev had arranged for excellent food during the 3 days TRM. It had some healing effect, I will explain that later.

Manikandanji's songs/music while Gurudev was coming in and going out was ultimate.

One miracle that has happened is, before coming to the TRM, I had a severed cold, cough, fever. Slowly the fever was settling down, still I had headache and sinus problem. After coming to the ashram also I had the problem. I just bought anu taila had couple of drops in my nose for 2 to 3 days, the environment, the food provided had some healing effect. when I came back to Chennai, the headache and sinus disappeared just like that. I have seen this happening many times even before. Some healing happens whenever I visit the ashram, I just don't know how it happens.
