What we do

Project TriStar is an off-the-grid, eco-friendly, sustainable, and spiritual community that provides a safe and harmonious lifestyle for those who choose to live their lives based on natural and universal laws.

The intent of the Project TriStar initiative is to create a lifestyle and an environment that supports the community goals of self sufficiency, healthy living, mutual respect, individual responsibility, and personal growth.

There are those who may say that Project TriStar is an attempt at creating a utopian, idealistic, and totally unachievable community model. The truth is that the ability to manifest or achieve any goal in life is based on experiential knowledge (education), understanding (perception), and beliefs.

Imagine the world we live in today. On one extreme, we have communities that are violent, destructive, and at constant war with one another. On the other extreme, we have communities that are supportive, harmonious, and at constant peace with one another. Every other social structure, community, town, city, state, country is somewhere in between these two extremes. In other words, to say the Project TriStar initiative is unattainable is simply a perception of what we believe is or is not possible based on our experiential knowledge.

Project TriStar is not an Ashram or monastery, but it is unique from what most people would perceive as “community” based on present day socioeconomic standards. The Project TriStar initiative is to bridge the gap between the physical world and the spiritual world in a way that harmonizes with the growing internal desire and seeking for a better way of living on planet Earth. In essence, Project TriStar provides a realistic and attainable alternative to living in the social and economic structures that are commonly practiced throughout the world today.

The Project TriStar community embraces spiritual principles that include: decisions that are prioritized with their impact on nature, natural resources, and universal laws. Every member of the community acknowledges the goals of living from their heart, in harmony with these principles and each other, and with a passion towards service to others.

    The Project TriStar initiative and community is about creating an environment where people can live a safe, healthy, and fulfilling life through growth and expansion of consciousness and spirit which is not limited or influenced by material possession or personal wealth. As previously discussed in the Project TriStar Overview, this is not a fantasy, but rather a realization of the reality and the choice to live life as it was intended.

    Throughout human history, there has always been enough resources and material wealth for the whole of mankind to effectively sustain a moderate lifestyle that achieves these goals. With a balanced perspective, respect for one another, and being responsible towards nature, virtually any closed or open economic system can achieve long-term sustainability and ultimate success. So, how has society and humanity created the economic and social chaos that we see throughout modern history? The answers can be boiled down to greed, over expansion, and excessive consumption.

    Project TriStar’s vision of creating a sustainable community that is based on spiritual and natural laws rather than material possession may seem extreme and unattainable to some, however, the perception of something being attainable or unattainable is always a refection of ones level of understanding, learned experiences, fears, and self limiting thought. To the members of the Project TriStar community, the common economic and lifestyle vision is completely attainable and desired.

    The concepts of material possession, money and any economic system are contrary to the desires, beliefs, and motivations that embody the Project TriStar community. Members of the Project TriStar community are not moving out of society and off-the-grid simply to prepare for the catastrophic potentials that may lie ahead for the world. Instead, they are moving towards a healthier, more natural, and more peaceful lifestyle they believe is inherited and a more synergistic existence between man and nature.
