We are all Children here
We do have to expect some kind of a learning
curve.
We need people to get ready to do more than just what some may think is their own
fair share. That would not be enough to do anything with. We do need to start building
more of a cohesive group that could actually begin to go to work on
the rest of this project.
Agreement
We have already moved far beyond that
point. We have already become One with the Spirit of Eden. And that goes way beyond the need for
agreement. We are going to have to change if we are going to become a real
group not like some of us may have been when we first came in from the cold.
We do need to move on from there and fairly quickly now would be not a moment
too soon because the future will not always be there. I still extend a warm
welcome to all who truly come in Peace and Good Fortune and with a great
willingness to listen and to learn. And I am one of those people who I do
extend a warm welcome to.
Eden is Unexplainable
What better place to start but the Truth. But it
should not be judged too quickly as it has been by so many who have mistaken
Eden for something that they already know. Certainly the Intentional Community
thing is something that a lot of people like to imagine that they already
know. That is so harsh Dude. Give us a break. Give this vision some room
to grow and you will see that it does have something very special which
is what really is needed at this time for something to be able to grow into
what it should have been a long time ago. This movement needs Eden.
We are the Givers
We are giving life to the Earth not consuming the last remaining resources.
Things have to be given back. And that means to go beyond. Things change.
We have things to do. And we all need to find a way to join in with that.
Now is your chance
to become who you were never meant to be. That's what it means to be one
of The Village People. You have not been left out. Not yet anyway. What
we need now is a cool new vision that is real enough to unite us all. One
that is alive. Eden is for real. Give it all you've got. To hold back is
to die. Especially for those of you who did want more out of life. We must
support the growth and the propagation of this vision and we do so at our
own great expense. Thanks Mom!
Until the End
We are starting our own Global EcoVillage Network and we do have a Global
sized Vision to go along with that. Not just to categorize some more things
into lists and categories. Putting labels on boxes and putting little boxes
into bigger boxes. That has already been done and it does not make for a
real community network. Nor is every community an EcoVillage either. What
we are doing goes well beyond the expectations of the past. This is a very
real thing and it does need to be understood by those of us who are capable
of doing that. The rest can go about their business. As they say you are
now free to move about the planet.
Edenism 101a
You need to become one of the Edenites to make it real. And each will find
their own place in this world even those who will have no place to call
home due to political and economic changes brought about by the Centralization
of Globalization. Those who can not or are for whatever reason unwilling
to try to integrate into this vision should not be bothered about this project.
For that reason we say that the door is always open.
Food is Life
We don't always have to feed all the animals in the forest. Lateral
movements of resources for no reason would only create problems later
on when they keep coming back looking for more. And we don't go out of our
way trying to get them to abandon their own natural habitat in favor of
our many sumptuous plantings in Eden and a Life of Natural Integration and
Perfect Abundance.
The Web of Life is a terrible thing to waste.
It could even be said that this is only for those of us who really have
been working towards something real and have been doing more than just sitting
around waiting for paradise to be delivered to our front door steps.
Intentional Community
Without an integrated vision none of this will ever be good
enough as you can see all around you. Something more does need to be done
with all of this. It does need to go far beyond all of that which has been
done before. And we are the people who have been chosen by ourselves to
do the very important work that can only be called laying the groundwork
for natural EcoLogical Integration.
New Life
There is much
that will soon come out of all this new integration that will become seen
as a welcome addition to this fine worlds great and massively huge history
whose potential and perhaps even source extends far beyond just this one
little planet. Life is Universal. And it does get around normally. Sometimes
it does seem to be stuck but it is not. If we have remained limited in our
scope up until now that has been by our own choice. Unwilling to learn and
you will burn. It will all burn.
The Meaning
The Meaning of Eden
may be seen in many different ways. It's not just the few things that have
been so easily misunderstood that have caused so many people to want to
have their place in Eden turned into a piece of property that can be bought
and sold. There is so much more than that going on here that I can hardly
even begin to speak of it and so I must remain as I am which is almost speechless
in reverse.
Of course you can never
take a little piece of Eden and walk away with it. It's not a deck of playing
cards that you can fling all over the room in a fit of anger. But how many
would like to do that? More than you can count on one hand. And we will
see this little game trotted out over and over again.
What does that tell
us about the starting points here. We do not all start things off in the
same way. Nor do we all move quietly into our places in order to usher in
some of the positive futures that would be worthy of anyone to aspire towards
and to commit to.
It is so difficult for some
people to accept that they will now have to come back down from some of
their initially hard held positions about who and what they thought they
were supposed to be about and what they thought they were supposed to be
doing in relation to this fine planet that we now share in the protection
and the propagation of which was not meant to be bought and sold to the
highest bidder forever and ever. That was just a temporary part of the plan.
It has worked for a while now. And now that we are through with it we can
now let it go. Like any tool we may put it to rest. It no longer factors
into our work here. We are Free to make better choices than we have in the
past.
Self Interest Alone
does not make a home. Not much of one anyway. Tossing that out the window
entirely is another big mistake that is very common. Here we will work towards
the further integration of a few things that do fit together quite nicely
once they have become recognized and self understood.
This vision is the only one
I know of that is big enough for us all to be able to move into and to share
in and to become a part of the larger movement that we are also creating
here out of and within the Pleiades EcoVillage Network which could become
an active component of the EcoVillage Network of the Americas that we are
also a dues paying member of not to mention the Federation of
Intentional Communities and the Emerging Spirit of the Emerald Forest.
We now find ourselves at
the heart of the integration of a larger movement and that this vision is
just the beginning of a whole new world of experience and understanding
that is just now beginning to dawn on us all should just now become clear.
People have come to expect us to slow down so they can catch up. "But Man
like that is so not going to be happening Dude." Eden is on the leading
edge of a New Cycle in the midst of an Endless New Creation that has become
self initiating and has always had a life of it's own. Please don't kill
the messenger.
We are creating a new kind
of community that is not modeled after anything else I know of and that
is Key. And that is what is so cool about Eden. Now we will have to begin
to learn very quickly to become able to work with the existing new realities
that will be dawning upon us all. But nothing will happen until we begin
to disengage.
