Housing
At present housing consists of a single modest frame dwelling. The
interior has been modified to better serve the needs of a community,
but much remains to be done. In recent years we have completed a new
kitchen, remodeled the dining room and have plans for other additions
- most recently an addition to the kitchen has been added. After that
will be better bathroom and laundry facilities. (It should be noted that
we use composting toilets and gravity showers.) We are hopeful that
soon we will be able to expand our housing to accommodate a larger
number of residents.
Although we seek to create housing that will be comfortable for all
members, it is equally important the it remain simple and conducive to
our spiritual lifestyle. There is an old Buddhist saying that exemplifies
this: "Before enlightenment, chop wood, carry water. After
enlightenment, chop wood, carry water."
