And the village and the farmers have shown enormous tolerance of me and interest in what I do. I mean, they don't necessarily understand what I'm doing all the time. But they, you know, I think they respect what I do and that there is a connection between what they do with the land and what I do, you know, that we're both dependent on weather and respond to that.

We have to start at ground zero and ask what it means to have a real connection with God and what it means to pray. We have to recast our whole understanding of God.

I've always had philosophy, which has been really helpful for me, getting into the business. I didn't have any connections. I didn't know anyone. It was just about my work.

The environment has to tell that story.
