Eastern Sun Enterprises hasn't added a story.

What our project is about:

 

The Mt. Brennan Sun temple is a  unique  off-grid meditation  & event centre , located in the heart of the kootenays just outside Kaslo,  British   Columbia.  This temple has been designed as a sanctuary to facilitate transformative  experiences in nature.

 

Immersed in the beauty of Mother Nature the Sun Temple and surrounding lands offer a regenerative and rejuvenating experience for people and groups who have a passion for off-grid living,  healthy living, retreats, and back country recreation experiences. We are strongly holding the intentions of building community and serving the youth.

"To make sure we're offering the best  possible  experience for  our community we will be initiating the following upgrades:

 

These are the projects you will be supporting in priority order

Installing  a year round water system ($3000)

Building a sauna/shower house ($4,000)

Building a new composting toilet ($1000)

Completing the Temple Kitchen ($3000)

Stretch Goal:

Building a super bougie sauna/shower house ($15,000)

      - The only thing better after skiing fresh lines all day is.. coming home to a sauna!

 

By donating to our project, we can create a healing space that enables us to discover who we truly are, what we are capable of and give us the strength to be the change we want to see. There are many kinds of fun perks, please reach out for any questions for clarity or how they work. Our team will do our best to ensure they are delivered in a timely fashion!

 

 

 

 

 More about The Sun Temple and Dustin:

 

Greetings fellow travellers through time and space, my name is Dustin East.
I am the co-owner and director of programming at the Eastern Sun Temple, a ceremonial space cradled on the sunny slopes of Mount Brennan, located in the goat Valley west of Kaslo, British Columbia, drenched in wildflowers, creeks waterfalls & deep powder. this was born our of a dream to create vipassana mediation center and now becoming a great spot for Rite of Passage retreats, yoga and experiencing the great outdoors.
 
The Eastern Sun Temple is dedicated to people interested in sovereignty of mind, body, and spirit, learning to turn from lead to gold through a deeply sacred, alchemical connection to the land.  In conjunction with the Mt. Brennan Lodge, we can create a unique combination of experiences allowing for deep & lasting transformation.
         
Of course, the region's rich mining history remains very much alive in every season’s activities, including back country skiing, sledding, biking, hiking, huckleberry picking & incredible mineralogical exploration, or just straight hoonin’ it on up to the summit of Mt. Brennan.
Today, we are requesting financial contributions to ensure this space is safe, functionable and ready for groups to enjoy for years to come.
Please take a look at the donation perks, make a offering and become part of our mount Brennan family. I send this with gratitude to my father Murray, brother Braden, cousin Joel and all the hands that made this project possible.
Much love 💖

Message from Dustin 🧘‍♂️

After learning Vippassana fifteen years ago, I had a vision to buy land and build an off grid meditation centre.  The vision has since evolved into creating a healing space that enables us to discover who we truly are, what we are capable of and give us the strength to be the change we want to see. One concept is to create rites of passage ceremonies for boys transitioning into men, and a place for men to give support to each other in a challenging world. The intention is to create more unity and diversity and therefore all genders are welcome to join in the rest of the happenings.

The dream is alive and located on a 22 acre sub alpine property I own with my brother Braden. The Sun Temple is strong, beautiful and almost complete. It took a small miracle to get this far and we are ready to play big.

The purpose of this game is to become self reliant.  We are upgrading water systems, bathing facilities, energy systems, suspension bridge access and more. This project wants to move with Velocity and resources are all in place to make this happy as the funds come in!

Investors will have access to host retreats, attend events, utilize the sanctuary in off times, or angel investors can have a permanent dome and lifetime acces

Come shine your light with us. For serious investors that understand the importance to create with Velocity, please contact me direct at (250) 505-8159. Come leave a legacy with us and create safety for you and your family. Everything is possible with a TEAM! (Thank you Landmark)

Together we can innovate mountain gardening, energy systems, better transportation, state of the art dance parties and access deep healing. All this to assist in building a next level community. And while supply chains are still somewhat intact, NOW is the time. Trust in good faith. We've got this. Now let's dance in Possibility, Create opportunities, and BE in action.

Love,

Dustin
