 Eden is the Earth Eden is the Earth as it once was. Eden is the Earth as it could be. Eden is the Earth as it should be. Eden is about the Trees. Eden is about the Wind. Eden is about the Woods and the Waters, and the Natural Exchange of Nutrients and Resources. Eden is about the Land. And Eden is about the People, and the Plants, and the Animals. Eden is about the Continuation of the Entire Web of Life. We are a New People. We are a True people. We may even be the Adams and Eves of this world, and that may soon need to be integrated very quickly. That's why it really does matter how we approach this thing right from the start. And so we have to ask people to expect the best, and to forget the rest. How it Works The Community works, by having every ones Complete Support and Perfect Trust. And that really does have to come first. Our lives are not going to be just about living our own lives anymore, not like it used to be. But now it could be about something much more real than anything we have ever had the chance to experience before. This is just the Beginning. And we aren't making any Promises. But it could be about something much more engaging than we have ever been able to conceive of. It could be about having our own people, and a real community of friends to share the rest of our lives with. It could be about the People, and the Plants, and the Animals in Eden. It could be about the Children. And I mean all the Children, both our Birth Children, and those who have been Adopted, from Far Away Lands. We have a tremendous potential, for growth and change, and now we are going to actualize some of that in Eden. We are creating a Whole New Story right here, in the middle of the Universe, one that makes sense. Eco-Logical It could be about the Watershed we live in, and not just our own, but all of the North Coast Eco Region we live within, and we will be playing a very Key Role, in the Protection, and the Propagation, of all that is good and right, and all that has turned out well, in this Region, as well as those who have been attracted to Eden from Far Away Lands. And it could be about the Earth, and all the People, who would like to represent the Earths Best Interests. This is about working with what we've got. Even if some people might not think they have anything much to offer, that is what we are all going to have to learn to work with, one way or another. We don't want to be the people, who have everything. We don't even like most of the unnecessary junk the media might try to sell us. We are just volunteering, to become the Stewards of the Earth. And the People need to know, where they might fit in. We have called the People to Action, from all over the world. And now they have begun to show up, and some are still wet from the green wet jungles they have just climbed out of. That is what the Magic of Eden is all about. Life. It is just dripping wet, with the Magic that life is made out of, only now we have decided to become part of the Magic, so let's try to keep it as pure, and clean as we can. Its only Natural It is our job to take care of the Land, and the People, and the Eco-Logical Integrity, of the local environment that surrounds us. That is the assignment we have been given by T. We have a vision to share, and we have a Larger Service Area, which extends from Santa Cruz, to the Foothills of the Sierras, and then up to Mount Shasta, and then over to Arcata, and then back down to Santa Cruz. We are not here just to cover our own backsides, for a lifetime of wasted time trying to fit in with the Crowd that goes nowhere and means nothing. And it doesn't work, after a certain point, when the levels of Humanity, and Common Decency, are falling dramatically, which can be seen, among the Homeless Encampments, on the streets, in our Cities. We should not be at all surprised that when things are given away for Free, they are never going to be appreciated. And so we expect to see lots of Reciprocation. Who Knows? You should be willing to go, where this thing is going. It may even be a whole lot better than any other place you've ever been. We don't make a lot of empty Promises. There are No Guarantees, but a lot of the focus is on what is possible for us to do right now, and within the next few years, within the process, of the creation, of this Magical New Community. We have to become very pragmatic people here, who can use very ordinary amounts of money, to do some very good things. Disengaging from the System In this way, we are disengaging from the old world, but not without taking full responsibility, for the creation of another whole new world that is more sustainable, and that we would like to be able to share, with a whole lot of other folks, who are agreeable, courteous, and generous, right here, on Turtle Island, firstly, and then we plan to spread the magic all around the world, and throughout the Universe. And so in that way the good energy does come back again, like the Dove in the Myth, only with a Green Olive Branch, in its mouth, both of which would be excellent symbols, for what it is that we are doing here. Why? Because that meant that the Roots of some of the Trees had Survived, and were putting up new growth, which does hold the promise of renewal. And so the New People should be coming here, offering us, the Olive Branch of Peace, not a long list of Consumer Demands. The New Organizers will all have to be Trusted, and treated, as perfectly Honorable People, with Grace, and Loving Kindness at all times. The Community is to be Supported, by the People True, because that is a Great Cause. But the People True are not going to be Supported by the Community, because they are not a Great Cause. Does that make sense? Our Oneness and Unity comes from Serving the Cause, and staying True to the Vision, and not from being accosted, by the many peoples consumer needs, to live like a Queen, or whatever it might be. And the group would never be able to say anything like this. But the New Organizers do need to be properly empowered enough, to be able to speak up about these matters, with the full force of Truth The Dawn of Peace Yes. We do plan to carry the Olive Branch of Peace, into a whole new world, of our own creation that works through the Honor System, and respect for the Natural Order of Priorities. And it all starts right here, with Truth. But there is a Danger. No wrong thing can be done, without Full Accountability. But Freedom is not a Commodity, to be distributed equally, and so it is not to be taken for Granted, at Birth, but as something that will still need to be Earned. In a Sane World, Real Freedom would have to be Earned, and a certain amount of Time might be involved, like 3 Generations, because that is something that would have to be Transitioned into. And so Freedom might better signify an accomplishment, and that one has changed. It is not to be given away, as a Consumer Entitlement, and most certainly it must never be promised, before it has been Earned, and that might take some Time. Bruce Lee, the Karate Kid, was a well known Child Movie Star, in Hong Kong, and he had made around 20 Movies. But he had to come here, to the US, before the age of 18, and so he did so, at the last minute, to obtain US Citizenship, which might have been worth something like $100,000. Why? His Movie Career, which had to be abandoned, for the Citizenship, must have been worth at least $50,000. And he wasn't going to miss out, on a great Opportunity, to trade something of some great value, like his Movie Career, for something of even greater value, which was US Citizenship. His First Job was Bussing Tables. And then he became a Karate Teacher. One becomes Emancipated, at the age of 18. And then we can sign a Contract. No one is born with that. No. We all Transition into that. And so it is not a Natural Right to staert functining as an Adult, just as soon as you get here, because there is Transitional Period to go through. A very high price might need to be paid for that. It is not just about getting here, and then you are a Movie Star. No. There is another Great Big Long Bridge that must be Crossed. Why are Children not Born Free, to do as they please? There are plenty of good reasons. And so we are correcting this falsification, which has come from Thoughtless Thinking. We may only have a Right, to Freedom, when that has been Earned, and when we have Transitioned over into that. Since When? 1991, when this project was conceived. We should be working towards more Freedom. But no one can be prematurely allowed to have Absolute Freedom, from all Responsibility, because that would obviate the need to work for anything. And the same thing is True about Rights. In a Sane World, Freedom would have to be Earned. Why? Because if some very few people really were considered, to be worthy of being given total Freedom, as it might be, in a relationship, for instance, then we would want that complete Freedom in a Relationship, to be something, which that person can be Entrusted with, and which has been Earned, and would be their Due. But Eden is just a new starting point, for the Creation of an even larger vision, of an Earth Restored, and a World at Peace that is actually, a fairly accurate assessment, of what this project is really all about, which goes way beyond just the dream, of Premature Freedom, or some Imaginary Paradise, that so many people might be waiting around for. But these are just the early stages of something imaginary that could become something very real, and that is much better than just a dream. And so we all have to begin to treat the Vision, with Full Faith, as if it was Real, because it is Real. Since When? 1991, when this Project was Conceived. The Project is not being created, for just any of the Average Joe Consumers. Welcome Home. We are Building a Bridge, into a whole New World. Most everything that needs to be understood in Eden will be, at long last, by those who are Faithful and True to the Vision, once that understanding has all been Earned, and at just the right time, one fine day, which may even have been chosen, for just that purpose, long before the Beginning of the Universe, which might have taken a very long time to get rolling, because Big Things Take Time. Everything has to Ripen up first. But to get pushy or to reach out and grab anything before its time had come would be an abrupt interruption, of the natural Magic of Eden that is to be listened to, and not prematurely misunderstood, as part of an attempt, to try to leverage that innocent act, of ignorance, to get over on us, with lies and deceptions, which is the way a Child manipulates their Parents. Nothing is to be forced upon us, out of fear, and the need for domination and control, while not having much of anything to bring to the table. We don't respond to coercion. We are Joining a Community. We are not Buying a Community. Judgmental and Domineering People might not be welcomed. All of the Homesteders, will need to sign off, on the Homesteaders Agreements, to signify that they have understood the terms, of the Agreement. Push and Pull There is often a push, and a pull involved, in some relationships. Those who want to help us, to create this Community will have to find a new way, to do so, in a very big way, while asking for very little back. But we don't mind a few people getting involved, for all the wrong reasons, to begin with, like just for their own personal advantage, largely because, this might be their last ticket, to Survive the Downfall, which various Indigenous Peoples may have long ago seen very similar visions about, and have passed on down, in the form of Native Prophecies. And we do welcome the input of any Amerind Visionaries of today, who might be able to let us know what they might see coming up ahead. We do need to see some very real levels, of high quality collaboration, to start coming through, in a very big way. We should be able to demonstrate our natural ability, to self integrate, into this extremely well conceived project, which is bound for the Stars, without needing too much personal attention. Right. From the Stars we may have come, and to the Stars we may be forced to return, since we may have no other choice, once the home planet has been burned out, because of Improper Population Balance. The government is not going to be there, to take care of us. If we need it to be the way it is not, we might find that it is not going to work out that way. If we are willing to enter into it, just the way it is, then everything may just open up, for the right people just like it is in the real world, which is the World of Nature. We must be willing, to join T, in agreement, and support, in order, to be counted, among the very first ones, to move, and to get in the gate, before it is too Late, to get in the Gate. We cannot expect to be Saved, by the Government. They are not our Saviors. They may think they own us. But then we would still have to Earn a place within the Community, by being active, in the give and take. And in Eden, we all give more than we take. For All the Children My Name is T of Kenwood. I am the Organizer, of the Eden Project. We try to Think of T as being a Friend, and a Trail Guide, who is only here, to help the others along the trails that lead up into Eden. But even that offer of Friendship is only going to be there, if the People are worthy, of that Friendship, and have Earned it, and are willing to help out, in our EcoSystem Restoration Camps. Just Buying-In, and building a Home, and starting a Farm, would be only half the price, of Survival. But let it be known throughout the Universe, that our Friendship will have to be Earned, before it can be Burned. And so we don't want to enter into Total Dependency, right from the beginning, as if we were latching on to some lonely robots, who wanted to adopt a bunch of people, to be our children, for some emotional reason, like for comfort, or because we want them to play house with us, just to make our family of robots appear to be more complete. And it is not always going to be just one big happy Family. I will have my Family, and you will have your Family, or you may have no Family. But maybe you can build a New Family, simply by posting a notice on a bulletin board. What I am looking for primarily, at this time is other self competent and cooperatively minded people like myself, who are willing to make a very real and significant contribution toward this fine and elegant new project, with a Contribution of $1,500. which is one of the best ways, to announce ones intentions to become one of the Edenites, and to prove ones commitment, to stand among the People True, and the Village People, as someone, who can be counted on, to be there until the End. But in Eden, we can make things work better, for the Good Native Workers, in various ways, like a Workers Run Collective, with a Profit Sharing Plan. Yes. We could use Regenerative Economics, to set up an Annual Profit Sharing Bonus, to Incentivize the Workers, to do a better job, and to continue to Innovate, and not just to stagnate, so we have decided, to give them a Share, of the Profits, to motivate the workers, to work more efficiently, because they have a personal stake in the outcome. And so here is the Deal: Those, who will work on the Common Farm, and have done so, for 5 Years, on the job, and have always been there, when we needed them, working at the going rate, and have excelled, will get up to an extra One Thousand Dollars in Cash, as a Profit Sharing Bonus, at the end of that fifth year, if we have done well, and have had a Good Year. And so for the first 4 years, you do not get the Profit Sharing Bonus. That Profit Sharing Bonus would be based, on the assumption that they had earned $10,000. or more, then they would get a One Thousand Dollar Profit Sharing Bonus, for keeps, on a good year. But if they had Earned only $7,000, then they would only get a $700. Profit Sharing Bonus, on a Good Year. But if we had a Bad Year, as a Collective, and that is in partnership, with the Community, of course, which is the Land Owner, the Business Model Creator, and the Plants, and the Water, and the Labor Provider, then it would be only $500. But if we had done really well, and had a Great Year, then the Profit Sharing Bonus, would be $1,500. for those, who had made $10,000. or more, during that Great Year. But if they only made $5,000. It would be only half as much. And the same thing would be True for those who work, at the Village Foods Store, in Town.
But the Community is a Not-for-Profit Association, so the share of the money that goes down on the table, to replenish the Community Fund, would all have to be distributed, by law, in the form of services, and goods, and benefits, as you may well know, and they will be distributed properly, for two reasons, to stay out of trouble, with the Law, and to support the various projects, like the Homeless Village, or the EcoSystem Restoration Camps. What Homeless Village? Withywood The Withywood Homeless Village might be good, for those who might want to help, in the building of their own future homes, which is only Natural, for the people to have a generous hand in the building of their own homes. And that might be something like 18 separate Free Standing Tiny Homes, each maybe 12’ Wide, by 24’ Long, set all around a Big Round Garden Area, leaving a Big Circle, in the Center, where we might want to Build a Geodesic Dome Greenhouse, of about 100 Feet in Diameter, and may 30 feet tall, and with maybe an 8 or 12 foot wide space, in between each Home, and with Metal Gates in between the Tiny Homes, to keep in the Chickens, and a 25 foot space around the dome, where the Children can chase the Chickens around. For some people, who we call Slippers, the High Cost of the Middle Class Way of Life may be slipping farther and farther out of reach, by design. Even the lucky few, among the Homeless, who might even be getting a Disability Check might still not be able to find a decent place, in the City, where they can afford to live, and where they can expect to have a Good Life, and Friends, and not just a TV Set. And we want the Formerly Homeless, in Eden, to have a place, where they really do fit in, once they have Earned it, where they can do some Good Work, and earn some credit, without needing to be paid, and that is why we ask them, to help out, and to take part, in the Building of their own Homes, and the Homes of their Neighbors, without getting paid, so they can Earn some Honor. And in recognition, of all that good work done, the rent can be lowered, to something like $600./Month, for those who have done the most, down from $750./Month, for the first 3 Years, which will be a lot easier, to afford, for people, who might be getting a Disability Check, or something, and might want to give that back, and to pay it forwards, so that it is not all just wasted, for nothing, which is what we all try to do in Eden. We try to put all of our money to good use. During those first 3 Years, of saving $150./Month on Rent, for doing the building of their own Homes, that will save them each $5,400. And how long will it take to build it all? Maybe 3 Months. And if so, then for working those first 3 Months, that would be like saving $1,800./Month. Our Society has a low cost Housing Shortage. And so we have Created some Solutions, for a few of the Homeless, in our Greater Service Area, who might be Disabled, and might like an affordable alternative new way of life that matters, for some of the Positive Spirits, from out of our larger Shasta Service Area, who will help out, and we do this, because we are a Class Harmonist Community. But where does all that Wild and Crazy Money come from? It comes from the General Fund. And much of that money in the General Fund will have come mostly, from the Buy-Ins, we will have received, from the Homesteaders, who represent the Home and Land Ownership Class, in our way of thinking, which means the People, who can afford to Buy Land, with Good Water, and to build a Home on it, which is the means, of Production, and Survival, and to Build a Passive Solar Home, on that Land makes it both liveable, and economically feasible. That is just one Niche that will be served. And in the Withywood Homeless Village. All the Land, and the Materials, and the Engineering, will all be paid for, by the Community, so they will not have to Buy the Land, and they will not have to pay, for the Materials, which will all be delivered. But the Building, of the Homeless Village, will be done, by its future Residents, as with many other Projects, in the Community, which will be very Decentralized, which means that it will not be Top Down, where one person is giving orders, to 10 People, and then each of those 10 People are giving orders, to 10 other People, but it will be much more Decentralized, where everyone who is there working on the job will help to decide what needs to be done, and when, and how it should be done, using Agreeable Cooperation. We work things out right there, on the spot. And if it seems like we are Shamelessly funneling some of our best Marketing Strategies, and money making ideas, into the General Plan, to Serve the Cause, as the Organizers, with lots of other Peoples Time, Money, and Labor, and Good Will, then Yes, it is Completely True, that we are guilty as charged. And so if anyone wants to quit, then now is the time. But that is because we Organizers know that it is very important, for the Whole Community, to be Solvent, and Healthy, Stable, and Financially Well Balanced, with outside money coming in, and with local money moving around, so that we can Serve the Cause, and with mostly the outside money going back out, whenever we have a choice, which will often be because the local money simply cannot be spent outside of Eden, for a good reason. And that is to keep that local currency circulating around, to support our own local projects, and the needs of our own people, who may need, to have jobs, and a roof over their heads. We have said that we had a Plan, which would begin to unfold, when the time was right, even if some of the rest of us, are living on borrowed time, and might not be thinking very much about how important it is, to secure our place in the future, by preserving the Economic Integrity, of the Community. The Community has to be able, to float freely, in the Clear, with no worries. Why? It has to be able to interface with other Self Sustainable Communities around the world. And we Organizers really do have some very good ground to stand on, as Native Land Owners, who are not Untrustworthy, or Irresponsible, so every Honor would be expected, to be freely given. All towards the One. When we Organizers have had to set up the Original Complex of Business Models, like the Village Foods Store, in Town, or the Common Farm, on around 200 Acres, of our Best Farmland, devoted to Raspberries, and the Circle of Homesteads, and the Farm Sites, and the Withywood Homeless Village, and have had to explain how all that would work, and what they would be planted with, like Wild Black Cap Raspberries, then we should have the right, to take One Third, of the net intake, for the Community. We are a Not for Profit, and so any excessive intake of funding would be, not to make a profit, but to replenish the Big Warm and Fuzzy Community General Fund, so that we can continue on, with our many Projects. What we are creating is a uniquely New People, with a whole New Story to tell. But what will we call our bad selves?
The Eden Project - Eco-Village Institute, or TEPEVI. Meet the People I will be glad to meet, and talk with all the Good People, at the Lodge Meetings, and on the Hikes, and in the groups, and on the road, at the many events, where I can be found feeding the growing need, for Sustainable Community, in this world. A Dark Cloud of ignorance and violence may have descended upon our Land. And it is our job to heroically fight back, against the EcoSystem Destroying Forces, to Save the Earth, and the Natural World, which is already way too overdeveloped, and that is because of OverPopulation. But we are the Water People. We take care of the Water, which is Life, and that is all going to be Clean Water that we can Drink. But we do intend to integrate many of the best new ideas into Eden. And so some of that might be useful. We do need more People, who can help to create what needs to be created, without being told what to do, at every turn. We do need people, who can help to push this project way beyond the mere beginnings, which I have begun to put before the people, out of a sense of Urgency, in the light of Global Warming, the Deforestation of the Amazon, the Melting Ice Caps, and Glaciers, and the Falling Water Tables, and the Dying of the Animals, Overpopulation,and the Burning of our Forests, which have all been indicated, by many of the Indigenous Prophecies, along with many other climate disasters, having to do with Volcanoes, Earthquakes, Fires, Floods, Famine, Pestilence, Drought, Wasting Winds, and the Societal Breakdown that could give rise, to Marauding Gangs. We could even start a whole new thing, which could be called, Eco-Logical Integrationism. But if it does begin this way, with T, on a very personal level then that is coming straight out of a principle we use in Permaculture all the time, which is called using what you've got. And that ties in with our idea that Eden is an Assets Driven Community. But those Assets do have to be Real and Existing, in the present moment, when we might want to get Levelled up, and become Onboarded, as one of the Land Stewards. And towards that end, we do have to ask, for a $1,500. Contribution, or more. There really is a very personal element that has rightfully been put right in place here. We do have to have something we can begin with, which we call the Original Vision. Even the Organizers might need some financial support, in time of need, in order to Rebuild, after a Natural Disaster. And so I came up with the idea, of offering up some of my own Original Works of New Art by T, in the form of NFT's, to restore my own financial security, and to be able to rebuild back better than what has been destroyed. I need to put in a Deep Well, and a Pump, and a Wind Power System, a Tiny House, and lots of other things on the land, near Sonoma, which I am giving away, over a period of 10 or 12 Years. And so each NFT should be sufficient, to pay for one of these Big Projects, which will then all be Donated in turn, along with the Land itself, to the New Land Stewards, and the Children of the Future. Eden is a Living Thing It is not just another public institution, you can enter, with anonymity, and with no regard for anyone or anything, as it might be, on the Internet. No. Eden is more of a whole life changing experience. But the cost has been minimized, just to enter into a deal, to cover the cost of the land. And that can very easily be Financed, by the Community. We have to become creative in just bringing money in, and moving it around, in a way which makes sense. We ask the very simple questions: Why are we doing this? Is it just to take care of our own needs? No. Who was it, who Built this Country? The Builders. And who are those Builders? We are the very People, who will have to decide, the fate of Our Tribe, and how we will Survive, in the face of a Nuclear Threat, or the chance of being Enslaved, by an Oppressive One World Government, which might be coming up, and so we will be splitting off, from the pack, who might be heading right out there, into one of the many possible Catastrophes, which have been talked about, in the many Native Amerind Prophecies. We are doing this to Save the Earth, but not because we are afraid to Die. The way we see it is that those who can make it through the next Fifty Thousand Years will be home free. And that is something that can be passed on down, from One Generation to the Next. But if the Project, of our New Beginnings, here in Eden, to Save the Earth, was going to have to be Abandoned, and a lot of people had already Bought into it, out of despair, or in hopes of gaining their Freedom, then Our Policy would be, to return as much of the Contribution Pledges, which had been contributed, but that had not yet been spent, on the Purple Mountains Majesty, after all expenses had been paid, as would be reasonable. Why? Because we are a Non-Profit Association. That is our Policy. This Community does not get to make a profit, by law. And so our policy would be to return any excess funds, to those kind people, who had made the donations, if we were not able to proceed, with this land, or if we could not find another one like it. Here we will all be choosing to be as directly hooked up, with the Universe, as possible. And so we won't need the Obsolete Doctrines, which can be found, on the City Streets, of Anonymous Isolation. And so there is a Distinction to be made here. These Ideas have been brought down to us, by T, from the Outskirts of the Universe. But the Universe can be Deadly, so only our most heavily skilled people can ever be trusted to mess around with the inner workings of the Universe. Very few have begun, to even consider these very real serious dangers, to the very fabric of the Web of Life that wrong livelihood, atomization, and no community has brought about, because these unwitting captives, of the ethics of mass mediocrity, have remained merely self centric, in their perspectives, which makes them very Dangerously Self Destructive People, who cannot be trusted, to keep the Peace, under all conditions, which is what will be expected in Eden, not to use Anger, to get what we want, because we are to become Universal, while many of the Consumers might be on a Dead End Path, which does not become Universal, because of their own Choices and Actions. If you don't have a Startling New Vision, like the Original Vision we do have ready for The Eden Project, which was not designed by Committee, how can you have Self Governance, which is partly about upholding that Original Vision. And if you did have Self Governance, prematurely, or before the time had come for that, then it would simply be all about the New Prospects defending themselves from the Original Vision, by taking it down, bit by bit, out of their own convenience, willfullness, and lack of respect, for the Original Visionary Organizers. Most of the other Communities which had gone before us, just did not have this much good stuff to start with. A lot of Communities have Failed. In one case, they paid their Original Organizer Ten Thousand Dollars to leave, and then the Whole Community just fell apart. And that is because the unwilling followers made Collective Excuses, why they should not have to do it right, which would be to uphold the Honor of the Original Organizers. And so for that reason, it might be good if we could rely on someone of Recognized Authority, to say No, when some of the New Prospects try to make plans together, to Corrupt the Original Vision, just to serve their own convenience. The Old Competitive Way of Thinking, as part of a Crowd might be what needs to change first, before we may allow any one person, to proceed into Eden, with the power of True Love Magic that is given, to all True Edenites, once they have earned their Freedom, as one of the Village People, and have become recognized, as Honorable Natives, who have made a very real Sacrifice, which will never be forgotten. This is just the Beginning. We are still in the promotional stages. Few have really appreciated the fine opportunities that stand before us all right here that are well worth giving up all need for control, and this Old World Idea that the Consumer is Always Right may have to be the first thing to go. Community is about relationship, not grasping for power, and so some of these things that we may have been taught in school, and through the media, to leverage the power of quitting, may have to be dropped, before we can enter into Eden as one of the True Edenites, or the Village People, who are the People True. Eden is to Save the Earth If some of you might want to help, to define this project, as we do progress, you will have to show that you have some very real contribution to make, and that you can work, in cooperation with the existing leadership, and that would be, in New World Thought, not Old World Needs. T is not always going to be able, to grant every whim or make every concession, and he cannot be expected, to reverse every decision, to make everybody happy. And so the need for Happiness, will have to be given up. Everyone has a right to be Happy, with nothing. But no one has a right to get everything provided for them, just to make them Happy. And a lot of people were left out, but it is not our job to make up for that, unless we want to. We do not feel the need to compensate the others, who did not Formulate a Plan, as well as this one has been. After they have completed something, then they might experience this kind of completion, which is an honor, but it has been well earned. We do need someone like T, who is on the job, and can quickly respond, to an offer that someone might make, who would like to give us a million dollars, and just needs one acre, in a fairly central location, to build a temple, as one person actually demanded, or they would quit, right off the bat, if I did not jump on that kind of an offer, right then and there, and this was all on behalf of some really important Woman in the Bay Area, whose name he would not mention, who alone could make this project work, because he was a true believer, that She had the Magic Touch, and that no one else, like T, could do anything, because he is not Famous, and that She would say how much she would pay, for that One Acre in the Center, which I think is Audacious. But No. We have Agency. We can Change the World. The Average Organizer may feel that it is not for them, to decide, on some things, which is fine, so there is much that will have to be left, to be integrated later on, as people launch one idea after another, and run things by the whole community through the Consensus Building Process. But some things have to be decided on the spot. And so we have to be willing to Trust the Organizers, to have the Projects Best Interests at heart, because we do need some Angels, who will back us like a Rock Star. But no one gets a place in the Center, and no one gets a place, on a High Spot, or a place, in the Old Ranch House, not for any amount of money. All others are now invited, to begin to share in the responsibilities, of the creation of the ongoing emerging vision, of Eden, as an EcoVillage Community, and the Emerald Forest, which is a Network of Sustainable Communities, which should be springing up, in Turtle Island, and then maybe all over the world. Accountability There is the great danger that I have already faced many times before that we as a larger group may not be ready to carry on, with the full set of responsibilities that should not be placed, in our collective hands too soon, because there should be plenty of overlap, as the New People are brought up to speed. But many hands are just not yet ready to assume complete responsibility, with full integrity, because they have just not been raised up for that. No. They were raised up, to look for the best deals out there. And we need to know we have the support, of all of the other progressive groups, in our Larger Service Area, and the World. The New Community Organizers should plan to learn a few things from us, like that a more gradual change, into having a more responsible role, in the community, might be a better idea, just as it is in the Tribe, where we might need some time to find out what some of the New Prospects can do. But that way of thinking may have to be balanced, with the Peoples Needs, to know, where they will fit in, and to know where they will live, and to know how they will live, and to know where their Food and Water will come from, and to know what part they will be allowed to play, in the Collective Decision Making Process, and play is a good word for it. But how that will all be accounted for? The New Organizers, of the New Communities will have to Answer some of those Questions, with a Plan, which we have done, and can now Share with the World, which will show, and the next step is the Build this Community, just to show exactly how that can be done. In any community, a full 3 to 5 years might be a good period of time to consider before we can get to know them, as most people are still carrying a lot of foreign material that really has no application, and could even be a great detriment to us all, like Misfolded Proteins, and Glycations, and downright Pollutants, in the Body, like Glyphosates. The Removal of these Poisons in the Body is called Natural Healing. We will have indoor Maker Spaces, in large white metal buildings, the size of warehouses, where people with ideas can work on things. We do need to set up a system, of the orderly transfer of power, from where it has rightfully originated, over to the Consensus Council of Land Stewards, but that council needs to be put together, with people, who have actually become True Edenites, instead of being just a bunch of people, who did respond to the call, because there is a very real difference. Right. And we don't need that many voices on the Council. Most of that is trying to take something away from the game. But we don't allow that. And that is why our Crypto Tokens could be paid for with Dollars, or they could simply be earned, which would become the preferred Token of Exchange, but no amount of Dollars would be accepted, to pay for our Crypto Tokens, because we do not want them to become inflationary. There is a very real Transitional Period, during which, we might have to go, from being one thing, like not being a real person, to becoming another thing, which is more like being a much more Real Person, even though we cannot guarantee that Reality is even Real. The Artificial World that we have come tumbling out of may have infected a lot of Peoples Minds, with Artificial Constructs, and so there could be many people out there, who may have been turned, into Artificial People. And they do not want to change. And so they will fight to defend themselves, keeping all True Things Out. And they have been taught to fight for their own Sovereignty above all else, which is not the best way to go. An Integrated Council of experienced, and committed people, could be given much more decision making power, to carry the weight of this beautiful project, and to care for it, as if it were a newborn child, and then they can carry the vision on into the future, of All Life on Earth. And that leaves a healthy amount of growing room, for some of the New Prospects to Progress. See you all in Eden. We Carry the Vision, for Saving the Plants, and the Animals. Those who have been true, to the vision of Eden, and who really do come in good faith, and bring good will, and with some Great Love, and with some willingness to trust, and to cooperate, will have to reach out first, and build a bridge, and then we can all begin to reach out to each other, after that, and together we will move towards the Integration, of this Community, with some guidance and direction, from the High and Mighty Organizer at first, who must think he is a God, one might think, but not quite, because this really is a Work of Art, and that is what is on the Receiving End, which will outlast us all, and then less and less of that Guidance and Direction from the Organizer will be needed, as we become launched, over a 3-5 year period of time, one might think, after the Move-On, when the People can begin, to move on to the Land, as the first groups of Homesteaders. And they will be pitching tents, on their Homesteads, or putting up Yurts, or Domes, on their Cabin Sites, as they begin to learn what the land is like, which they will be living on, before they might begin to Build. Jobs are important. We want every child, who grows up in Eden, to be able to get a job, when they are ready for it. And that is why we will create some Worker Run Collectives, for things like the 300 Acre Community Farm, which could be set up, as Decentralized Autonomous Organizations. But another thing we might want to do is to create a Community Garden, which will provide Fresh Foods, for the Kitchen, so we can begin to sit down and eat together, for at least 3 Shared Meals a week. This could be happening, in the Old Ranch House, to start with, which is a Modern Home, with all the conveniences, like a Swimming Pool. But no one will be Living There, not even T, because that will be set aside for Community Use. And we might want to have a Mentoring Building, where some of the younger people can go, to interact freely, with those Elders, who have Experience and Knowlege, about many things, which they would like to learn. And we might want to have a well designed Seniors Care Center, and a Dormitory. And it would be good, to get all these things done, within the first 10 or 15 Years. - T |
