Mission Statement
At Hyphae,
We are more than a community – we are a living organism of shared intention, sacred presence, and spiritual alignment. Rooted in the teachings of our six divine beings, we are structured around the power of individual will and responsibility. You have the power to seek the spiritual path that you desire, and our trusted Board and our guiding principles are here as a structural foundation upon which you will thrive. Our six deities - Peace, Love, Ocean, Balance, Darkness, and Luck - are visions for divine, internal enlightenment and offer all of us a path upon which to walk. Our structure is a simple one; as a member, you can choose to live with us in our shared community, or simply engage in our many opportunities for teachings and enlightenment (including our annual festival!). Through intentional living, sacred labor, and daily practice, we seek not just to withdraw from the chaos of the outside world, but to transmute it together.
Our Ethos
Our Ethos
We believe in action as devotion: the idea that every meal shared, thought uttered, and seed planted is an offering to our own internal enlightenment for the good of the community. Our daily life is built upon these sacred pillars:
-
Collective balance - We live in harmony with the earth and with each other, and for this reason partake in a conscious sharing of resources (both external and internal). We thrive and simplicity and an attentive care for the environment around us.
-
Sacred work - Within our community, all labor is sacred. Every act is an offering to our deities, which allows us to see our hard work as one drop in the ocean of a wider plan.
-
Shared abundance - Through a model of income sharing - not asset surrender - we sustain a thriving community built on trust, goodwill, and skill.
-
Guided Autonomy - We honor each member’s path while walking together under this divine purpose. Your decisions are valued, and are made as a product of discernment, shared dialogue, and the spiritual guidance of our earthbound representatives. You choose the path you forge - we are merely here to guide you on this spiritual journey.
