The Metahive Project
Summerland, British Columbia,
Canada
 The Metahive Project(MP) will be a partnership with people and organizations whose common wish is to build "Kins Domain"/ecovillage/holistic Healing centre, and alternative living space in harmony with each other and nature.
Our wish to be located in the Okanagan region in BC, Canada. We wish to find an area of land suitable and good people to help make the project a reality.
If you have land or know someone who is wishing to donate a few acres or would like to be a part of the project or can help in anyway please email me.
Through the "Metablog" we wish to nurture an online community and create connectivity to share ideas, experiences, knowledge and wisdom with all those who share our common, goals, values and beliefs.
In our world there is an awakening to a new paradigm shift that we need to work with understanding, love, and harmony & with one another to solve all our challenges. There is a shift in conciseness happening all over the world and People are awakening
to realize that old “society” and ideals of
“Fear and Consumption” have to change now. Please come be a part of the Metahive Project.
It is similar concept to some other holistically healing centres, retreats, spas, alternative living space and communities.
One could be visioning the Metahive as a empty bowl and what makes it useful is not the hive but the empty space within. In other words it is the people and how the space is used that gives its purpose and makes it useful. It allows the purpose and meaning in the moment to be what it is being used for at that moment. It is everything and nothing at the same time. It will be every changing and is dynamic centre for all who are in harmony with our harmonious core beliefs.
Its core shall be a place of harmony and peaceful coexistence with our mother earth and all of her Earthlings.
It shall be a place of:
*
Learning and sharing
*
Spirit and spirituality
*
Love and loving Health and healing
*
knowledge and wisdom
*
Insight and awareness
*
Intelligence and enlightenment
*
Time and timeless
*

Wonderment and wonders
Many of Earth's peoples and societies have and are awakening to the need to leave behind the “fear & over consumption” culture, policies, politics, and destructive ways of life. To reconnect to our true nature. We are all “Earthlings” and have a deep spiritual and physical connection to the Earth, and with each other and we all must learn to share our home with each other.
Many now see we need to work to change our way of life in order to keep our life in balance and harmonious union with all Earthlings by learning respect, understanding, and compassion for all beings how ever small or large.
Many have now awakened to see the chains of wage slavery as what they are. How working 40 to 80 hrs just to keep food on the table and gas in the car and you bills paid is not freedom. That no one is truly free if we depend entirely on a system for our food clothing and shelter. And in the end you can't eat a big screen tv or your Play station. People are awakening and seeing that the hole in they lives and soul can't be filled with car, cellphones, computer games, movies, entertainment, houses. That rampant over consumption is like a black hole and can never be filled. To continue this culture and life style is a path to our own self destruction.
There are many people bringing to light a multitude of solutions and the MP is going to help teach and reach those not yet fully awakened to the reality. Although I do not have all the answers but I certainly know that together we all do. A journey of 10,000 miles is started with just one step. The MP is one the first step toward resolving these challenges we all share in common.
We all have unique talents and abilities that we can share and learn from each other to unite together to find the solutions to help save our selves, all Earthlings, and the delicate balance of the Earth. I don't need to have all the answers because someone else out there will have a solutions to my problems and I may have a solutions to theirs.
The MP will work to build communities and help bring people with challenges to connect to the people with their solutions. We will use both the Internet and leaning centers for all to participate in whatever way they can.
Metatopia
The MP is a Metatopia. Not to be confused with a Utopia (Latin for “no-place”) which true meaning is often referred to as a perfect place or society. My vision is not to create a perfect place as that is an improbable. A Metatopia is place about place. Simply it is a place beyond a single place. A place of many places and a non place at the same time constantly changing and flowing like water to the sea.
There will be six areas under which the work shop activities will fall into.
