Manifesting a Miracle
Scottie laughed and was delighted at my new found interest in something he had been consciously dreaming about for years. As we spoke on the phone and began to daydream collectively about all of the possibilities the campus had to offer, our imaginations ran wild! We found ourselves instant messaging on-line as if our ideas and visions already existed. My interests prompted me to share the possibilities with some friends of mine. One of the first people I shared it with is highly intuitive and her response to me was, “Oh, Tricia! I see it, I see it all and it happens all very quickly!” I thought to myself, wow, really? How could it be? After all, we were just visioning, right?
As we continued to talk about the property I began connecting with other people and sharing it’s existence and the level of interest in creating a place for the southeastern United States for holistic, integrative learning. The thought of creating something like this rang true for several people within my network of friends which was exciting! The circles expanded and interconnected.
On January 27, 2010, I mailed a letter snail mail to the owner of the property, the Japanese university Meiji Gakuin, inquiring about the campus and our desire to tour the facility. In just a little over a week we received a favorable reply. According to the letter, the university had been longing for someone to do something with the campus and our concept had touched them in some way.
I won’t discount that there are Divine forces working within the Universe or Multi-verses and that energy was working with the synchronicity of all things surrounding this story. And as we all have discovered along the way of this vision, it has certainly been woven out of that kind of essence.
The response went on to state, that depending on, our group and our detailed plan that the university would be willing to ‘provide’ us with the campus. Provide? Provide? What did that mean? Instantly, it came to me that this campus was going to be a gift. And so that was it, a gift. Less than one calendar year later and many trials and tribulations, the deed was transferred for the campus to be transformed into a multi-functional, educational, non-profit institution available to all ages, from children to elders, concentrating on health, wellness, creative expression, agriculture, and sustainable living practices encompassing all aspects of the mind, body and spirit.
To support the cultivation of ecological sustainability with the practices of organic farming and gardening, permaculture, composting systems, green building, alternative and appropriate energy technologies including solar, wind power, locally sourced art and hand crafts.
To become a model of a truly sustainable community, that will support the health and quality of life of present and future generations and to recognize the need for fairness, and for physical, emotional, intellectual, cultural, and spiritual sustenance.
