Infos

• 

  Description

  We are located in Marquina, Cochabamba, Bolivia, close to the thermal waters of Liriuni and the mountain of Tunari.
  
  More than an ecological community, we are a school to learn how to live and a shamanic Ashram, an opportunity to experiment the community life inspired by the ancient wisdoms. It was found on September 20 of 1990 by an ecological activist, philosopher, spiritual leader and author. He wrote more than sixty-seven books and imparted conferences in more than 1300 cities within the five continents. In the community an intense educational activity is being realised, therapeutically and culturally and with the objective of creating a critical attitude and an ecological conscience.
  
  Our philosophy of life is based on the ancient indigenous wisdoms. Our principles are based on reinstalling the sacred relations with Pachamama, achieving a balance in the ecosystem via healthy and organic alimentation, meditation, reflection and observation of ourselves.
  
  We see Mother Earth as the most meaninful thing, as we perceive ourself as their children. For us it is relevant to give her back love and care, so we gardening in the morning and watering in the evenings. This is a really big place full with vegetation and we always can use some extra help. We are fully commited with the maintenance and expect the same from our volunteers. For us this is a form to give back to Mother Earth a little bit of all that she gives to us.
  
  WE DON'T SUPPORT NOR ALLOW THE CONSUMPTION OF TOBACCO, CANNABIS, ALCOHOL OR ANY OTHER PSYCHOACTIVE SUBSTANCE. You will have to sign a paper stating that you do not carry any illegal substances nor objects with you.
