Skyline

An Eco Contemplative Center

Here at Skyline we live within a household of Ponderosa Pine, Douglas and White Firs, Incense Cedars, Black and Tan Oaks, Dogwood Trees and Sweet Birch. Deer live here, and bear and cougar. So do gray fox and wild turkeys, red-tailed hawks and robins and wrens.

Bridger Creek sings to us as we fall asleep at night. It joins a chorus of bird song to waken us in the morning. The north and south forks of the beautiful Yuba River flow some miles to the north and south of us. They flow out of the Sierra-Nevada Mountains at whose feet we find our home.




Eco

"Eco" means home or household.

We invite you to come home:

   *Into intimacy with your own inner world

   *Into the intimacy with the natural world

   *Come home to Earth

   *Come home to Self

   *Feel the ground beneath your feet.

Center

According to modern physics and perennial wisdom, we are each a "center" of the universal unfolding.

We offer this 200 acres of private woodland, bordered by the Tahoe National Forest, to be a center for healing and transformation for our world.

This is the work of Skyline. There is an appetite for the real, a desire within for communion, a longing for union. Come apart from the techno-world into the natural world.

Come out of the city. Find that narrow road off the too-traveled highway. Follow it to its end. Open door that has been closed for too long. Inhale what has been forgotten. Breath deeply the scent of Home.
