One Community is creating open source and free-shared resources and solutions for Highest Good food, energy, housing, education, for-profit and non-profit economics design, social architecture, fulfilled living, stewardship practices and more. The resources we are creating can be implemented as individual components or complete teacher/demonstration hubs, intentionally purposed to spin-off additional teacher/demonstration hubs as awareness and knowledge grow.
New Age "spirituality" is just another TRAP set by the elite and inventors of religion, for the purpose of social control. People who aren't buying mainstream religion are in danger of finding true unified consciousness, which is exactly what the elite don't want, so they created New Age religion to keep people trapped in the matrix of CONTROL. It's like a last ditch effort to hold people down, to keep the ones who are "getting away" from escaping their control.
The vast majority of new agers claim that they are "spiritual but not religious" but notice how so many new agers believe in Jesus, Buddha, Krishna and other "ascended masters" as "historical people." They're buying into bull# and believing in these mythic deities in the total and complete ABSENCE OF ALL EVIDENCE just the SAME as mainstream religious folks. Believing in fairy tales, myths and legends isn’t called being “enlightened” it’s called being gullible and living in the dark.
"New Age" Religion/Spirituality: Just more HYPOCRISY and MIND CONTROL
Mark Passio Mark talks about the "New" Age Movement as another Religion to control people's minds and prevent them from developing a deep understanding of Natural Law. If you have bought into the hype of the "New" Age Movement, this is a video that you need to see to understand how you are being deceived."

Glancing it over, it is a concept of true socialistic communes of self sufficiency. Also known as hippie communes in the 1960’s or utopian villages for a 19th Century variation. This is a 21st century attempt.
All of these require a like mindedness of the membership and acceptance of the leadership. These types of groups fail if leadership fails or dies. Or if scandal disrupts the mindset.
One of the on going problems is meeting financial insulation of the internal dynamics from the outside world such as property taxes, land purchases and importation of required goods that cannot be internally made and exporting desired products.
Often times the community produces food and furniture to be sold in local farmers markets. Toys and textiles (usually quilts and crochet items) are another seller. Other good ideas are an area on the edge of the property as market hub with a restaurant and general store for the outside public to come and purchase, perhaps charge admission to an educational work area to see blacksmithing, candle making, etc. that also markets those products.

The "highest good of all"? sounds just like "The Return of Jim Jones Part II"
They might as well throw up a big ass sign saying: All New Ager's welcome, any others don't even THINK about applying...

New Age Bull$hit, The Truth and The Reasons
"One Community has identified the property capable of supporting our world changing vision and we are in the process of seeking the necessary funding to purchase it. Until we own the property, we are not disclosing the specific location to anyone outside of the Pioneer Team, but we are sharing the details of why we have chosen this property over all the others."
Beyond my hatred of being pissed on by a slowly drizzling "efficient" shower head, i am also offended by that weird New-Age cult lingo they use.
Moreover, who the # are they kidding about "Highest Good." Get your morals out of my face. Imagine being stuck on an island with some doe eyed beardo that wont stop talking like that. That's commune life in the worst way. If these people get land, there will be dogs fighting in their outhouse and chickens #ting in the children's play area. Which is really irritating after a while. So yea. Less image. More substance. I refuse to wade through the annoyingly optimistic flow charts to get to the actual plan. Feel free to enlighten me if it's cool.
