We are committed to the building of a community, which recognizes and demonstrates this concept. We do this for all of our relations, but especially for our children, who deserve to live, free of fear: supported, protected, nurtured, and challenged. We wish to demonstrate time proven methods of harmonious living and explore new ways of living responsibly with our Earth. We have been provided with
everything we need. We have even been provided with a plan that unfolds in the natural processes and cycles, which enrich and order all life on this planet. If we have the courage, humility and surrender to follow this plan, we will be assured a future, for our children, of sustainability, abundance, and meaning. We are all children of one Creator. Learning to listen from the deepest, most quiet part of our beings, we can open to the possibility of realizing our true purpose in this intricate, living system. The vision of the Atalanta Association is to create a “Living University” to explore a lifestyle that flows from a healing compassionate and reciprocal collaboration between humanity and nature. The intention is to create a place, which fosters the ability to live with personal responsibility, in peace and harmony with all creation. Through direct experiential opportunities in agriculture, exploration of eco-systems, alternative building and energy technologies, and other aspects of life and culture, the hope is that people can become more aware of their place and purpose within the continuum of creation. From this awareness, true culture and healing can arise. The programs of the Atalanta Association are designed for all lifelong learners, with a special emphasis on young people.
