We all have a dream, that is to create an oasis out of the vast and isolated desert, offering an auspicious and harmonious habitat for LIFE on earth. That is to make this earth a fairyland for people who are kind, honest, diligent, simple and trustworthy, and let all generations of mankind enjoy a happy, joyful, free and blessed life forever.

Today, such a dream that was once chased by many saints, as what the ancient Greek philosopher Plato wrote in his dialogue The Repermies, the One World Confucius was after, and the Communist Society Karl Marx pursued, has come true. It is New Oasis on the earth- the Second Home of Lifechanyuan.


This video is dedicated to all those who are chasing for the same dream and longing for a beautiful new life mode on the earth.

We're now living such a dreamy life, welcome  to join or visit us, welcome to experience this magical new oasis for life!

[color=blue](Note: This video is made in April 2013 and specifically introduces our new life mode in the Second Home. Most of the images are from our 4th branch which is completely designed and built by our guide Xuefeng and all chanyuan celestials since Oct 2011. In the past 1.5 years, my brothers and sisters worked so hard everyday and successfully changed a wasteland into the biggest and most beautiful branch of the Second Home. Have a look at the miracle they made!)

All year around we’re open to visitors from all over the world. Except transportation and tele communication will be at your own expense, we don’t charge you for accommodation and meals and the community provide basic life supplies for everyone.

Tong Xin, thank you for that beautiful video.

While mankind (humanity) is like all of the other creatures on the planet, we are unique.
Each of us has the (learned) ability to seek More/Better.

Through our individual efforts, we have learned how to make mother earth a better place to live.
But by the same token, by our greed, desire, and "want", we are making mother earth a less desirable place to live.

Mankind is a social creature, like honey bees or ants, yet we all possess an individuality of our own.
Perhaps, a community like you have created, is the answer to an age old question.

To live in a 'colony/hive', where each individual produces what it can contribute to the community, yet still maintain their own individuality.

I hope that your community continues to thrive, and that the people there have found what they sought.

Hi John Polk, thanks very much for your comment. I'm glad to get response here. China used to be thought as a country where there is no soil for an innovative community like us. While 4 years passed and we're developing quite well now and our values is quite in accordance with the new leaders of our central government.Thus we believe we have a very bright future in terms of the social environment.

And I agree with you that we're all unique individuals have the right to search better things for our deep needs in heart. At the same time I believe wherever people come from,whatever they're doing, they're longing for and chasing for a peaceful, happy,free and blessed life on earth. A world there is no wars, conflicts, pains and troubles but only love,kindness,sincerity and trust, a new life that will not hurt nature, people and society. Our community life is in pursuit of realizing such a dream. We prepared for 8 years in theory and put it into reality for 4 years. We're open to study new things that will benefit this dream and are open to all people who would like to join us.

Yes, this is a very important point. People's individuality should be guaranteed so that their unique beauty and talent can be fully developed. In our community that's why we implement paradise management (it's a beautiful name, isn't it?)-- no management is the best management. Also there are things in common that each member follows voluntarily. We're people who come together chasing for realizing the same dream,we accept the same belief or value system which effects people's behavior naturally in their daily life. Such basement and our life mode makes it easy for people who're diligent, kind, sincere and trustworthy to live and adapt to this new life style. It's a paradise for them. As my personal experience of living here for near 3 years, I feel happy and free day by day. I'm really grateful for it.


I hope that your community continues to thrive, and that the people there have found what they sought.



Thanks for your blessing, we have big confidence that our community will thrive not only in China, but also in many countries all over the world. Thank you,dear and maybe we can meet each other some day in the future!

Best wishes to you!

Tongxin
