is this concept not the basis of organized religion? while an organized religion is a group with similiar beliefs and directive, they are just one example of a "community". communities in structure and beliefs can be as varied as the people they include. maybe a good first question is, "what is the community organized to achieve?" if seclusion is the answer, may you find seclusion and time to reflect and meditate. many people are overwhelmed by the demands created in city life and need room to expand.
i have lived in city's and seclusion. coming from seclusion into a city, it is apparent how small energies can become. people rarely make eye contact or interact with strangers in cities. with so many energies, man made included, people tend to draw there energies in close to them.
with room to expand and be part of nature as we really are, we can grow personally and bring this to others.
if the goal of the community is to provide food, shelter and other needs to members than this is something we should support. this whole, "working for dollars to buy food and rent shelter" thing is a new concept in terms of our time on earth. me and you should be able to create our own food and shelter without dependancy on dollars. we should also reap the rewards of the work we do rather than collecting a small percentage of proffit in a "wage".
maybe the goal of a community would be to do good in the world. this we can all do in our homes. have a group and spend time together meditating and intentionally creating the future you want. focus on fixing problems and righting wrongs with love. learn together and from each other.
so what is a valid objective for a community? anything you want, i'd say.
