New Movement

Because it Takes a Whole Village

Adam and Eve
Starry Lake

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.
