Vag Shantharam Shenai, an ASHOKA fellow elected in 1996, and being a witness to the good work and progress done by Dr. H.S.Shankar at I.I.T. Bombay, INDIA and Dr. Uday S. Bhawalkar of B.E.R.I. Pune , INDIA since 1992, wish to share some of my testimony to what I have come to realise will be the ECOLOGICAL SILVER BULLET that will not only solve mankind's pollution problems put turn it into resources for prosperity, peace and happiness. INDIA will be a great leader in solving the problems creating by technology for the past 300 years and remain a world leader by admiration, for a long time to come.
Let me be honest, that many times, I feel that I am walking on air, and have been through moments of believing that these developments are just madness or some unexplained miracle and at other times, I feel ecstatic that I am observing some of the greatest revelations of Nature that will change the way we perceive the universe and life itself. I then feel humbled and privileged, to be backstage when such knowledge is emerging from Nature's shadows, in response to pleas from suffering people crying for solace and healing, and Mother Nature in her compassion is showing us how to mend our self made messes.
I am not a scientist, nor am I formally well educated but have been blessed with the ability to see beyond the obvious and have an inner yearning to find ways to change the pain in the world to joy. I believe I have found the knowledge, the Eco tool and the Eco Guru, Dr. Uday S. Bhawalkar encouraged by Mrs. Vidula Bhawalkar and his daughters SARITA and KSHIPRA.
I have put some internet links which have tracked some of the progress since 1992 till 2007.
SIDHARTH KAK of SURABHI fame created an environment series called BHOOMI. We featured in the final 200th episode. You can see me with my TOTAL SEWAGE RECYCLE ODOURLESS SELF FLUSHING TOILET.

Our organisation and name was mentioned in Ms. SUCHETA DALAL's article that appeared in the INDIAN EXPRESS, and which led to the ECOLOGICAL operation at VASAI's KORA KENDRA to prevent a possible outbreak of disease in Mumbai anticipating OCT heat in 2005 , following ecological evidence which included the smell of 350 rotting buffalo carcasses which traveled 20 kms.

These SWISS nationals who live in CHINA have compiled a book on the people who will make an IMPACT in this work

I believe our work will be crucial to solve the GLOBAL WARMING problem in a manner such that prosperity will be the result since FOOD, FUEL and FIBRE can be created from NOx, CO2 and HEAT. Cooling is also a result.
I took this amateur video at NASHIK Municipal dump where they are now using our product and methods in the compost plant and sewage treatment plant with promising results.

These are just a few of my involvements.
Like in the movie THE MATRIX, you have to decide whether you are ready TO BELIEVE. If so, then there is nothing short of a fantastic voyage waiting for you.
Be amazed.
