The 1980's were a fascinating time, with the New Age movement, featuring many fantastic artists and communities. I lived for these years in such a community, and the «gardening of the souls» of the Eolis, as incredible and innovative as it may look, is pretty much autobiographic. We lived like the Eolis!
This was far from perfect, though, with inunderstandable bouts of rage from «Viviane», the owner of the «Faitg» domain. The birth of a boy in the community brought an horrible revelation: Viviane was a sexual pervert, hating men to the point of wishing them dead! She made such a hell of the baby's life, that I had to warn the social services. In a general way, in the final 1980's, many New Age groups crashed with similar lies and schemes from false spirituality and real crooks. This made that the energy of the whole movement was cutt off, around 1990. For me, it was an horrible time, seeing the destruction of all my work. My Milarepa and Marpa moment, where I had to rebuild my whole life entirely. Happily, the good karma I had gathered, guided me toward genuine spiritual practices. Even better, the inspiration is now available for the whole society!
Problem however, I have totally lost the energy to continue the Eolis. See them as a wonderful interrupted dream, a source of inspiration for when you act in the world. I did other things instead, like my Elven stories and, well, this, err, thing. Different themes, but same social and spiritual message.
(strictly speaking, I have the first part of the travels of Nashtao and Veranlounia on my hard drive. I hope to put this material on line some day)
