PARTICIPATION & LIFESTYLE
LAND ACQUISITION, OWNERSHIP & MANAGEMENT
Beyond vision, commitment and effort, residential spiritual projects require solid financial plans. They usually face stark challenges right away in establishing stable foundations and many founders turn towards fundraising campaigns or investment hunting.
Rather than relying primarily on the generosity of uninvolved donors unlikely to gain any privilege in return for the financial support they provide; rather than relying primarily on the hopes of investors which would contractually bind our community to honoring a lucrative promise, the Order of Tiamat should prefer to be financed directly by its own funding members and immediate beneficiaries via discussed and agreed upon financial choices.
In order to ensure the continued integrity and resilience of the Order, such members will come as close as state laws and legal statuses allow to collectively owning land and holding it under the attributes of inalienable and indivisible property. They will be registered as beneficiaries of the LLC under which the land is purchased. Tying the land to a conservation easement is also a possibility. This implies that collectively owned acreage shall remain intact, i.e. not be used or exploited for any purposes other than the needs and vision of the Order itself, and shall not be reclaimed or subdivided as compensation should any co-owner decide to withdraw in any way. It would be that co-owner's prerogative to request that part or totality of their initial investment be returned to them upon leaving, yet satisfying such a request may or may not be possible depending on factors like available funds or the circumstances under which they depart. They would, however, legally and immediately surrender rights to ownership, including their right to dwelling unless explicitly permitted unanimously by all members.
CURRENT FINANCIAL OPTIONS FOR RESIDENCE
Stacking precious metals is our number one safest financial strategy against ongoing economic crisis, limited wars sprouting globally, and systemic demographic collapse. We cannot recommend this strategy enough to any private individuals who care to preserve their wealth at a time when elites and their governments are destroying the "middle class" and printing money with no concern for the depreciating value of national fiat currencies. Those who understand that history usually repeats itself and manage to secure crisis-proof assets will find themselves more prepared, protected and free once on the other side.
For the time being, only two forms of financial contribution are being offered in order to secure residency rights as a member:
OPTION 1 - Purchase raw land and housing options with us right now at a time when the project needs it most.
Financing land ownership together with your 20-25% contribution investment of its market value upfront will grant you rights for permanent residence free of charge. This option will give you a voice in our collective purchase decision plus additional benefits such as voting rights on future management decisions.
OPTION 2 - Support our growth via a monthly residential fee once land has been purchased.
Live among us part or full-time for a flexible monthly residential rate. Initial standard rate will be adjusted, reduced, or waived entirely thereafter based on your ongoing contributions, your engagement in the Order and our member base status.
NUTRITION & DIETARY OPTIONS
One goal is to eat as naturally and healthfully as possible, and to satisfy all human biological needs. Each individual shares both universal and personal needs, meaning there will be no one-size-fits-all diet within the Order. Every member remains free to eat the type of foods they wish.
Veganism, vegetarianism and other personal dietary choices are all welcome yet shall never be weaponized to manipulate, guilt or gaslight any other members. Conversely, acts of animal cruelty, soil/water/air/noise pollution, whether forbidden or not by law, are proscribed and will lead to serious consequences.
We plan on producing most - if not all - foods intended for optimal human nutrition in compliance with the most advanced known dietary programs such as those designed by researchers Dr. L. Wilson and Aajonus Vonderplanitz.
Will be produced and grown as a baseline:
- vegetables, legumes and roots
- meat, eggs & protein sources
- dairy products
- fruits and nuts
- herbs, spices & edible plants
Emphasis will be placed on using only production methods that preserve, regenerate and enhance the soil over time and support maximum nutritional value (the opposite of modern agriculture). We also intend to produce our own medicine (think herbalism and tinctures, for instance wild lettuce or comfrey).
Every member shall be guaranteed access to the benefits of a healthy diet based on both modern holistic development theories and the ancient sciences of biochemical and bioenergetic balance (Ayurveda, Taoist medicine, TCM, etc).

INDIVIDUAL PARTICIPATION & INTEGRATION
New members may adopt any lifestyle as long as it is aligned with our core values. One requirement for all members - new or not - is enforced: personally and dedicatedly assist and contribute to the Order's needs and whichever projects and activities they choose*. We encourage every individual to live organically with and around other members and to spontaneously initiate or participate in any desired activity that supports their personal development while strengthening our community.
Please inquire with any private or personal questions you may have. Contact us if you'd like access to our list of suggested whimsical activities (bottom of this page) to see which ones resonate.
Here's a sample:
Natural and architectural housing
Permaculture work and systems design
Planting, growing and gardening
Tending, wildcrafting
Traditional cooking and preparation of nutritional meals
Networking with like-minded communities
Engaging in group energy work and meditation
Transmitting spiritual teachings
Inspiring the world with creative output
Engineering and developing advanced technologies
RESIDENTIAL OPTIONS, LAYOUT & CONVENIENCE *
One of the cornerstones of rural living is connectedness with nature, biodiversity and the Earth, which calls for building and living in grounding, non-toxic cob constructions and treehouses using ancestral and natural materials and techniques which do not degrade or threaten the environment or human life but harmoniously respect them.
Traditional building VS modern building
Our members private living quarters can and will be customized to their tastes and needs, built at their own pace, and will - in addition to the remarkable inherent properties of cob building - all provide:
• a minimum of 250 ft² of main floor living space fully immersed in nature
• outdoor buffer zones (based on acreage) between each quarters for increased privacy
• a cooking area
• toilet + shower & bathtub with hot water
• sound-proof windows and door
• chemical-free indoor and outdoor environments
• cable internet access (via Ethernet) in a 100% wifi-free environment
• indoor EMR shielding (if desired)
• air conditioning and/or fireplace (if desired)
Beyond that, each housing configuration is up to personal preferences, skills, needs and how many hands are available. Natural building (cob, straw, stone, hemp fiber, etc) is great in that it allows for simply made houses which can be upgraded easily and at will later on.
Are you willing to share your living space with other members? Would you rather Build a medium to large-sized structure with a number of individual bedrooms connected to a shared area, or enjoy some kind of underground solitary bunker? We can work on that too!
About the direct natural environments and landscaping designs that will surround you, you may want to refer to our "Community Design" section. imagine a 50 acre enduring permaculture food forest managed as a gigantic organic communal garden.
*Unlike collectives that reside at Ken Wilber’s Green - or below - level of development, we find it critical to mention that we do not rely on consensus decision making or attempt to subsume individual awareness and willpower into the collective. Although we encourage harmony, openness, and shared pursuits, we also grasp how disagreement and individual leadership can favor a dialectical process toward growth. You may want to refer to such basic concepts as 'Natural Order' or 'Dharma'.



GEOGRAPHIC LOCATION & ECO-ENVIRONMENT
Our optimal choice of land would be around 50 acres of forest - as close as can be to old-growth forest - in a strictly untouched ecosystem and with traditional living potential. This land shall remain preserved in its natural state by our residents and visitors, i.e. managed near-exclusively through durable, sustainable ecoforestry and syntropic farming.
In addition to the resources you can find elsewhere on this website, we recommend looking into the works of people such as Ernst Gotsch and many others.
We're currently networking, saving funds, and gathering a solid small group of founders before collectively picking a geographic location. We're looking into nonprofit organization options as well, more specifically those falling under the tax category of 'church', which comes closest to what we need.
Below are our requirements for geographic and site selection:
An example of thriving food forest farm
Syntropic fundamentals

Climate is
on the warm side (temperate to tropical) with mild to no winter, hospitable year-round, and
permaculture-
friendly
(if outside
of the US)
preferably not isolated from the rest of the world,
fairly convenient to immigrate to and adapt to local culture
Long-term
viability, self-preservation, and enjoyment of the land remain conceivable in the event of a significant sea level rise, major earth change
Region and market offer
actual clean,
vibrant, exciting
and relatable options with water streams, dense forests, diverse
local wildlife
Foreign and collective
ownership (shares)
is accessible and buyers market
(2027-2030) is advantageous
Local building restrictions and other institutional regulatory agencies aren't overwhelmingly controlling
Geographic
vicinity offers a balance of access to culture, technology, amenities, and a diversified local economy
We're essentially sold on getting forested and elevated semi-rural area within an hour from a nearby major city.
Determining a fitting location is a particularly tricky task. We've looked into nearly all continents, researched dozens of countries and, with open minds and realistic standards, have so far concluded that pockets of America or central/southern European soils are contextually best for the long-term viability and welfare of the Order and its members.
Right now though, we're investigating select US states and European countries:
• North Carolina (near Asheville)
• Washington
• Oregon (near Portland)
• Slovenia
• Czechia
• Serbia
• Albania
EUROPE
Julian Alps, Slovenia
