Spirituality based regeneration project in Covilha, Portugal

  Descrição

  Welcome! We are happy you found your way here. Let us introduce you to our beautiful project!
  
  We are first and foremost a spirituality-based project, focused on local development and holistic regeneration in the realms of ecology, environment, economics, and social service. It's a place that invites you to develop personally, cultivate a service-oriented mindset, connect with nature, live in a communal, purposeful, and eco-friendly way, and explore, build, and deepen your spiritual practice.
  
  We are not a traditional ashram, classic intentional community, or full-on eco village, although we share similarities with all three. Neither are we "off the grid", as we value being connected to the world around us (socially, economically, politically, culturally). If you are looking for any of the aforementioned places, then other great initiatives might suit you better! If you are looking for a project that holds a unique combination of all, you are in the right place.
  
  Zooming in on the spiritual aspect of the project; we follow the Indian born tantric tradition called Ananda Marga. The tradition has a two fold focus; Self-realization through ancient yogic practices such as meditation, and selfless service to the benefit of all of life. However, we welcome people regardless of their spiritual engagement. We cherish diversity in the social, cultural, spiritual, and religious backgrounds. Most important to us is that you bring an open and respectful attitude towards the tradition and its cultural guidelines. Examples are modest clothing, sattvic diet, and no nudity, alcohol, drugs, or smoking on the land.
  
  It should be said that our project is ever-changing, evolving, and beautifully imperfect. We are far from an idyllic paradise, and most people get from time to time challenged by e.g. living in a communal setting, living remotely, and the diversity in people. Those who embrace the challenge and take responsibility for their emotions, thoughts, and actions are the ones growing the most. We welcome your humanness in all its expressions, as long as it comes with the readiness to "do the work".
  
  The final highlight concerns that we are a place both of Being and Doing. We deeply cherish mediation and abiding in peaceful states of Being. At the same time, we like to Do. We are action-oriented and motivated to be of service. Accordingly, we look for people who take ownership, show proactivity, and are eager to contribute.
  
  This is our place in a nutshell. However, the project holds far more than words can describe. We welcome you to immerse yourself and experience it firsthand.
