I built the concrete platform for the Hondo of Amidaji

Dear friends,

I have just made some little but important progress in the construction of Amidaji temple.
In the last days I built the concrete platform (5m in lenght and 5m in width) on which I will place the Hondo (Dharma Hall).
In this post you can see some of my dusty pictures made at work J:

The next step is to place the wooden Hondo on this platform, but for the moment I cannot do it due to lack of funds, so any small help would be very much welcomed and appreciated. 

I assure you all, those who helped me until now, who will help me in the future or who can’t help, but support me morally from afar, that I am determined to go on with this project, no matter the difficulties.
I hope to give you more good news as soon as possible.

Clearing the land for the Hondo of Amidaji

first a tractor made some holes in the ground
so that I can pull out the big roots and weeds
I have just came back from the land where I am to build Amidaji. I successfully cleared some space of weed and grapevine roots on the spot where I will place the Hondo. Here are some pictures, but sorry for their low quality.


then I cleared the land by hand
and with a spade

the spot where I will place the Hondo is cleared
