For the first time in human history, pollution and global warming is a serious concern for both the environment and the health of all humankind. The future of home and local agriculture can be opened up in a positive way by the practice of Yoko Farming methods. Yoko Farming is a type of organic agriculture that helps achieve unity between God, humans and nature. Nature is not viewed as something to be used for human profit; therefore, the attitude of exploiting nature for the benefit of humans is gradually eliminated through Yoko Farming methods. Returning to the original relationship between humans and nature, nature is viewed as a precious creation of God which is intimately connected with all life. Treating nature respectfully, as a precious gift from Heaven, learning the natural principles of the universe from nature and developing a lifestyle that successfully achieves harmony among God, humans and nature is encouraged. The Yoko (positive light) method includes the following important components:
1) The use of compost and an organic approach to nurturing and developing the soil is a key element in Yoko Farming.
2) Issuing positive vibrations of gratitude, i.e. positive words and actions, while working in or visiting the farm/garden is a second key element in Yoko Farming.. These positive vibrations strongly influence the growth of plants and microbes in the soil, and also the feelings of oneness between the person working and nature.
3) Revitalizing the land with the art of True Light on a daily basis is the third key element. Yoko Farming is one way of improving nutrition and establishing a healthy condition in today's youth, which is a necessary for the human race is going to continue to prosper.
