Communities For Life.

Rethinking the rural land settlement process.

Our mission is focused on assisting people to become healthier and self-empowered, by developing with them, land-based communities that focus on affordability, re-connection to nature, ecological restoration, creative child-raising, and culturally rich community living, while also making a significant contribution to the local economy and society, then the world.

Changing the world is possible. We’ve done it before and it’s time to do it again.

Our team is led by Dudley Leggett who, with his wife Carol Perry established in 1972 his first land-based community that continues successfully to this day. “We’re ready to build on that experience and to share our knowledge and resources by growing a network across Australia, and why not, the World.”

“An intentional community within the larger community around it, can provide a powerful means of contributing to the creation of a healthier, happier world; beginning in one’s own big backyard.”

— Dudley Leggett

We are all already living together, but we don’t realise it, i.e. we don’t see it as real to our eyes; We all live together on this planet but we see ourselves as all living separately.

We don't understand (stand under the belief) that in actuality we are all connected, all having an effect on each other, and are all being impacted by what others are thinking, feeling, and doing; because we are all effecting the world around us by what we are thinking, feeling, and doing.

What if our reality is actually, as some people are coming to believe, a projected hologram in an electromagnetic field where thoughts appear as solid bodies; After all, our modern science has evidence that shows that, what appears to us to be impenetrable solid matter is mostly emptiness, evidently sustained by invisible forces acting on a relatively small number of incredibly small particles, surrounded by apparently empty space.

What I believe will bring about the new understanding mentioned above, so that humanity as a whole will comprehend our connection to one another, is groups of people choosing to physically and socially live together, sharing their abilities and resources to become directly and intentionally co-dependent; Humanity, as a whole could come to see ourselves as one family consciously choosing to be co-dependent on one another, for in fact we are; Pooling our resources and sharing our abilities is all that is needed to enjoy the abundance Nature offers, instead of creating poverty by wasting our common-wealth by competing and fighting.

How to do this in a sustainable way that includes regenerating and maintaining the flourishing of the rest of nature around us, is the discovery process that SRI has embarked upon and invites others to join with us in learning to, experience the truth of this connection, this being one with all others, for only then will we find what it means to truly reach our potential, along with the rest of the natural world, as gifted to us by the extraordinary mystery, the miracle of life in an apparently infinite multiverse.

Do you want to participate or help us?

This is a growing movement. Whether you want to live in a community or to contribute time to help achieve our advocacy goals, money to help us purchase land to care for and grow communities of healthy, happy people on, or energy to encourage others to participate, we invite you onto our team.

SRI is an approved scientific research institute, a not-for-profit charity able to provide 100% tax deductibility for donors and welcomes loans on terms acceptable to both parties.

We look forward to cocreating with you.
