Evolutionary Temple--a place for sacred experience at Burning Man 2009 Evolve with us! The Evolutionary Temple is a sacred space where we can explore our connections to the earth, each other and the unknown. Inside the temple, we journey from the evolution of the Self, to our Relationship with each Other, the Community and the interdimensional Universe beyond. In the Evolutionary Temple, we honor the wisdom of our ancestors and encourage everyone's potential to awaken, grow and evolve to their highest potential. While building on the core values of Burning Man (Radical Self Reliance, Gift Economy, Radical Self Expression) we strive to make our choices from the heart, not the ego. What is Evolutionary Spirituality? Evolutionary Spirituality can mean many things but it brings to mind the ideas of forward-thinking spirituality based on modern life that still honors all that has come before. It is the conscious weaving of new ideas and past traditions into a unique whole. Like you, it's constantly shifting and changing and so quite hard to pin down. Evolutionary Spirituality explores our connections with the Earth, each other and the unknown. THE TEMPLE With Evolutionary Temple we are seeking to create a radical new asethetic for the post-modern spirit. This honors our ancestors and history without misappropriating the iconography of any religion or culture other than our own. Our Evolutionary Temple is a sacred container for esctatic and healing music (including acoustic music with real instruments), healing arts and energy work, vibrational and sound healing, sacred mysteries, ritual, meditation and community activism and awareness. It includes: SELF - where we celebrate the body as a temple, with yoga, healthy food, massage and energetic healing. RELATIONSHIP - where we celebrate the evolution of visionary relationships, sacred sexuality and conscious communication. COMMUNITY --where we evolve our utopian ideas for visionary villages of the future, with an emphasis on sustainability, tribal family, ecological balance, and support for the arts and music. UNITY - where we celebrate and ultimately surrender to the flow of Oneness with Earth, each other, the universe and the unknown. We do not burn this temple -- it is a sustainable, portable complex (mostly made out of borrowed domes and yurts and dumpster-dived or recycled materials) -- designed to return to festivals and gatherings again and again. The Evolutionary Temple has: - a protected art gallery for exquisite visionary art, sculpture and live art creation. - 5 carpeted domes and yurts for chilling out, healing, workshops and meditation - a bus with a stage on top (and a woodstove inside!) for dancing, DJs, performance--and taking in the view from up high. - a location (requested) on Esplanade SACRED SPACES VILLAGE Sacred Spaces Village is bringing the heart, core, ritual, spirit and elements of nature back to Burning Man. We're keeping it simple, beautiful, sustainable, solar, recycled and unplugged. with... - the best food at Burning Man -- Krishna Camp is providing our vegan meals and snacks with their 24 hour kitchen. - shared showers, snack kitchen, a dining area, a camp meeting space - space for 150 people, tents and RVs. THE EVOLUTION OF EVOLUTIONARY TEMPLE - 2006, we created the Temple of All Gods & the Axial Temple. - 2007, we created the Gaia Maitreya Goddess Temple and the Temple of All Gods. and the RhythmWave conscious dance camp. - In 2008, we created Pantheogenesis temple in Entheon Village. You can see a slide show of Pantheogenesis here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p4ns9lO_VMw.
