Description
Greetings 😊
** Update --> Electricity has finally arrived!
** 2025 will be focused on smaller, quality groups.
~ Intro
Welcome to a meditation in action, collaborative experience anchored in learning the basics of land stewardship and infrastructure implementation.
Small 1900 square meters minimalist ranchuto, 35 minute forest walk from Mazunte center with great sea view.
There has been a naturally occuring recalibrating from high involvement in material things to set up the basic infrastructures towards clearer focus on continuously stabilizing in the meditative state.
The camp is a refuge for lovers of music, earnest meditators and calls for autonomous and ressourceful beings, enthusiastic to simbiotically merge in service with a system which progressively becomes us, serving us back in loving wisdom.
~ Intention
To foster the gradual transformation of our relationships with given environments from taking to giving; from using to serving.
To co-create, participate in the evolution of a demonstrative, in sitiu platform for empowerment, sovereignty, grounding, resilience and independence through reappropriation of basic life skills.
We impart, observe and infuse these values and teachings through creating ever-growing comfort, functionality and aesthetics for further parcticipants, with a pay it forward vision while cultivating yogic dispassion and detachment.
~ Attitude
We aim at substituting the habit of taking mechanical actions solely to achieve a given result towards more spontaneous serving movements that spring from deeper intimacy, intuitive naturally arising understanding of the space.
This takes a little bit of time hence the encouragment to stay onsite a few weeks.
~ Activities and schedule
We dedicate energy to tasks/projects 2 hours per day, 6 days a week. This smaller schedule allows appropriate conditions to bring everyone to contribute fairly to food expanses with the camp not yet having the capacity to finance that.
It also gives more quality time for connection, introspection, personal projects, Mazunte life and beach.
Schedule (tentative)
8am : Breakfast
9am-11am : Service - After 11, the heat lowers enthusiasm drastically.
11am : lunch
