The Seed of Life is an Essene Temple Retreat Center is in the heart of Central Texas Hill Country.
The Essene Way is Judeo-Christian (ala the documentary, Christpiracy) and peace-nature-oriented based on ancient scriptures including Canonical Gospel ‘red letter’ teachings of Yashua Hamashiach (Yeshua Ha Mashiakh – commonly known as Christ Jesus, the Nazarene). Our goal is to provide a sanctuary focused on Healthy Living, Sobriety and Recovery, Music, Dance, Praise, Animal Stewardship, Gardening, Zero-Point and Alternative Energy and Self Sufficiency.
* We follow Terrain Theory, which is a preventative approach to the well-being of our “Living Water” body temple. We are best served following G*D’S plan for us in Genesis 1:29.
* We are building a lifestyle-based intentional eco-community in alignment with Essene practices: strictly vegetarian and vegan, plant-based and holistic.
* Our unrestricted land allows us to bring innovative modern architecture and permaculture practices into reality and serve as a Holistic Business Incubator.
The Mission of the Seed of Life, is to supply a sacred safe space where we can bring together and heal, grow and create strong individuals with healthy bodies, healthy minds and healthy spirits. To facilitate this mission, The Seed of Life provides a facility, tools and a forum to learn and share beneficial information about:
* Detoxing fallacious beliefs, addictions and cultural mythology.
* Recovering and nurturing a pure body and mind.
* Reigniting Spiritual Connection beyond ‘denomination’ or dogma.
* Understanding a non-propaganda-driven view of financial and geo-political systems.
* Achieving success for one’s life goals.
* Building wealth for individual and community.
* Encouraging self-sustainability through agriculture and connection with the earth.
