Latin America is drowning in garbage.

MEDIOCRE MIND is the only REAL ENEMY

"THE MOST DANGEROUS THING IN THE WORLD IS MEDIOCRE MIND" said Albert Einstein. He was right. (he also said imagination is more important than intelligence. He is one of our heroes)

Mediocre mind is the only REAL enemy. mired in greed, envy, profit, jealousy, .... Mediocre mind's principal emotion is FEAR, fear of change, fear of diversity, fear of anything unfamiliar. Mediocre mind has destroyed nature on this planet, wastes resources on invented wars and obsesses in repression and control. It’s time to transcend mediocre mind.

Mediocre mind is way too interested in what other people are doing to ever get around to improving the environment or recycling garbage.

In every society there should be a place of superior insight and taste, where people can find inspiration and the finer things in life that uplift the spirit. The natural place for that is in

THE RULERSHIP

Benevolent rulership inspires and enobles, demonstrating the power of love in solving problems, not bombs or prisons. It's THIS TRADITION that we choose to follow in our new culture.

Earthgardens playgrounds.

Girls step forward to be Eco Team leaders in a rural school in Eastern Bolivia.. The teams allow kids to develop good habits together with other youth. We had more volunteers than we could handle.

Below, Leader Suyen. Bright girls, presently ignored by deficient educational systems in Central America, are capable of instinctive highly-honed recognition of BEAUTY, and in Earthgarden society, they take part in creating beauty, and protecting natural beauty.
Below, A lovely inspiration for the expansion centers, a thai temple. And a powerful wall painting from Neuschwanstein castle in Germany. Beautiful buildings inspire kids with awe and creativity which lasts a lifetime, improving the whole society. Money should be directed to that, not military or political bureaocracies. No useless politicians in the Earthgardens, just people improving the village.

After losing all the silver and gold production equipment and currency in Bolivia, we chose to use currency-stamps in Central America. Each team leader issued their own stamps to give out to team members, recognizing good works. The stamps were redeemable for food, art supplies, shoes, backpacks, even household supplies like cast iron frying pans. Whatever we got. We never gave money to the teams. Too many fathers and even teachers hijacked the money for less worthy expenses.

BENEVOLENCE IN HISTORY

Ludwig II of Bavaria. One of the greatest kings of all times, and a truly benevolent monarch. A sane mind in an insane world, unfortunately. His society wasn't ready for a king who loved beauty and benevolence instead of the usual pomp and warfare. We honor and love you, Ludwig. (Often called "Mad king Ludwig"). Let there be more kings like you.

Nicola Tesla, a benevolent inventor, wanted all electricity to be FREE to all humanity, but was attacked and his brilliant systems destroyed by the corporate MONEY LOBBY, so we have billions of poor people today paying so much for their electric bill they can't afford to eat well or send their kids to school.

RECENT BENEVOLENCE

Osho. A great thinker graces America with wisdom and benevolence, with a soft and eloquent message just what the war-making nation needed to hear to rise to a higher spiritual level. Only to be sabotaged and attacked by local rednecks and thrown into jail by mediocre minded politicians. A huge loss for America and the world.
