The snow covers the ground at the HSP Ranch in British Columbia, Canada, on a cold and sunny January day. Riding a horse from the HSP Ranch I recently had an opportunity to look over the beauty of the meadows, forests, river and hills of this training center, and envision the future potential of this pristine setting.
On the ride, I could see vividly and feel deeply the vision of an emerging Earth Village here where HSP (health, smile/happiness and peace) is the core culture within which the residents and visitors from different cultures and nations can live, work, learn and create a model harmony of humanity and the Earth. Today, there is a small group of trainers and staff living and working in a few rustic buildings. At present, the roster of training programs is modest.
But every great enterprise begins with a dream. Then there is a focus and energy given to the work that many can do together, to make the dream into a vision and then into a reality. The world today needs successful role models of how people of various cultures – who see themselves more as Earth Humans or global citizens, rather than as members of a narrower nationality, religion or creed – can work productively, creatively and peacefully to build a village in total harmony with themselves and Nature.
 Waving to you in -22 F weather The HSP Ranch is surrounded by an expansive and rich land, and the challenge of a Northern climate with its long winter. The core people and buildings are in place. The vision and strategy are taking shape. Soon, more and more visitors from all over the world will gather to learn, celebrate, meditate and heal – themselves and the Earth. There is and will always be plenty of room at the HSP Ranch for its horses to be ridden so that other people can frame their own loving and practical visions for humanity and the Earth.
