Brook:..however I had a huge problem with taking the energy you possess to a centralized spot to isolate from the world.
...They are nothing different then you or I..they are humans, seeking TRUTH and KNOWING.

The issue of RZ communities is independent of seeking TRUTH and KNOWING. There are people that seek TRUTH and KNOWING within and outside the communities.

The effort to create RZs is motivated by the desire to realize a vision of a better society in the world. While the energy to do that is substantial, it is probably much less than the total expended in the present chaotic turmoil that you see in the existing society. Everything goes in cycles, and it is important to recognize the end of a cycle and the starting of another one. By this is meant that there comes a time when the proper response is to focus on creating something new "from scratch" as opposed to patching the old. It may be sad to recognize the existing society/civilization is coming to an end, but that is the truth. The challenge to create a new one in a better image is substantial, but it needs to be done, just as it was done more than 200 years ago in North America, when pioneers create new communities which eventually became the USA.

It is because of the substantial energy and challenge to build a new society that people of like mind must come together to take this effort that is the basis for the creation of RZs. These are the nucleus of what will hopefully be the new centers, or what you may call cities for lack of a better term, for the new world society, one based on TRUTH and KNOWING of the self as a spiritual being. A society integrating science and spirituality.

This in no way takes away anything from anyone that feels that their purpose is to remain in the existing cities to help out. Neither perspective excludes the value of the other. There is plenty of work to go around for all.
