The Vision
To create a holistic educational center in an earth-friendly environment to provide a diversified curriculum of education, cultural arts, healing arts and recreation that enliven, deepen and inspire. The people visiting the Milagro World Centre reflect more than 100 countries internationally. Fifty percent of all participants are here for the first time. The most international co-creative environment one can imagine. Even if you're not diving into your subconscious, you can dive into another culture. You meet great people, the great food, have fun together, learn together, work together, chant together, dance together. Join us, and find many new dimensions to life. Experience the New World! The Milagro World Center is a place where truly memorable experiences enhance the wellbeing of body, mind and spirit, and imprint themselves, on our subconscious. To give us back our feelings and our spirit, so that replenished, we may return to the ordinary things of our life and live them extraordinarily well. The Milagro World Center is an environment full of simple pleasures. A place where people can come to the realization of how important it is to take care of their temple (body, being), but also feel the importance of being in partnership with the land. To be completely immersed in a healing environment both physical and nonphysical, to feel safe, cared for, and most importantly enjoy. The eco-sustainable manner in which this healing complex is created would educate current and future leaders, designers, policy makers, corporate and community citizens- with the vision and processes needed to replicate and achieve anywhere in the world a sustainable place of healing and education, while seeking to define humanity’s meaningful, rightful and responsible place in the natural world. This Complex would be a great example in the creation of a place where people can also come to experience and educate themselves with the knowledge of how to care for their body and spirit once back home. They will also see and feel, first hand, the importance of how architecture can enable complete harmony with nature. Understanding and Quality of Life:
The Architecture
The concept is to create an environment that’s built with health - giving intent, a place with organic responsible architecture where conditions are ideal for healing and spiritual growth. Architecture has such profound effects on the human being, on place, on human consciousness, and ultimately on the world. Architecture has responsibilities to minimize pollution and ecological damage. It also has responsibilities to minimize adverse biological effects on occupants. It has the responsibility to be sensitive to and act harmoniously in the surroundings. The method of construction and form of contract, therefore have a bearing on the spirit of the buildings quite apart from its appearance. The spirit of place can develop because of, not in spite of, the building. The Building and Landscape Architecture
This will be a great factor in the ambiance and uniqueness of the complex. There is an increasing awareness of the importance in the quality of our surroundings. The colors and materials used in modern buildings affect our well-being, as do shapes, size and proportions of our homes and cities. For the most part, architects and planners have forgotten that our environment should not only be aesthetically attractive, but the scale has an important effect on us physically and psychologically. To build this center is to create an environment of peace, calm and serenity which is a replica of our mother’s womb. It is a place where we can leave the world, safe from any external dangers. The Welcoming Hall
This structure, will house all offices to do with, reception and customer service, administration, accounting, marketing and advertising, programs and events, and the orientation suites. The Welcoming Hall will be the main entrance to the facility and will need to present a definite entrance to mark the transition from worldly cares and evoke a welcoming and enthusiastic attitude to the public. On arrival the visitors will have the first impressions as to sanctity of place and the importance of the visit to themselves. Creating this special atmosphere will entice visitors to be more open to all that is available to them in the Center. The Orientation Suites
The purpose of the “Orientation Suites”, are for coordinating all the services offered by the Centre, and for answering all questions pertaining to the vast variety of services, and programs offered etc. It is very important that the décor give the impression of comfort, safety and well being, as well as the friendly and a knowledgeable Services Coordinator who welcomes the guest. A combination of these elements will immediately transform the guest to a relaxed and peaceful frame of mind. From a wellness point of view this is the time when the guest chooses an array of programs, services, events, etc. Having a knowledgeable, caring, staff member assist in explaining the different services available, and recognizing the needs of the guest, will go a long way towards making the experience a pleasant, positive and long lasting one. The Sanctuary of Sleep - Accommodations
This magnificent healing complex will offer environmentally sound and healthy accommodations ‘luxurious in their simplicity’ within intimate sacred gardens where fountains, pools, tubs, waterfalls, and exotic flora, create tranquil and healing atmospheres. This rejuvenating haven of tranquility is where you arrive after a day of exploring exotic unthought-of possibilities. This sanctuary will be a harmonious rest/sleep environment. Beds will be monarch size with the best orthopedic mattresses ensuring a restful sleep. The accommodations will be simple in design each with plenty of light and decorated in the most eloquent colors and textures, so to increase the feeling of well being. The Bath Experience- Sweet Surrender
All accommodations in the Main Residence will have unique, large bathtubs, professionally crafted from sustainable wood or stone. Beautiful picture windows allow the natural radiance of the sun and the moon to enter, and giving a picture view into the private garden. This is the sanctum where tensions are dispelled in a miasma of scented water, a completely relaxing refuge where you can sing at the top of your voice or lap up the silence in peace and tranquility. Joseph’s Table
The kitchen and restaurant is the soul of the center, where culinary alchemy enthusiastically creates healthy festive dishes for your delight. Feast on organic wholesome, satisfying, and extraordinarily flavorful Vegan Cuisine. Our menu will offer an amazing selection of organic produce grown for the restaurant on our own 4 acre farm. The Kitchen Commandos' will go to great extent to give you plenty of delicious organic, clean food that’s wholesome, flavorful with as little as possible fat content. The Bakery
Bread was certainly a holy food for the Ancient Egyptians. For the early Celts any form of grain was a gift from the Corn Mother, and the bread they made was not only food but a fertility object and good luck amulet. Still to this day bread is looked upon as sacred food for the soul. Just think of the smell of fresh baked bread when you walk into a bakery! The Sanctuary- The Architecture of Peace
A creation of living, silent, architecture, with the qualities being, gentle, unobtrusive, tranquil, eternal, and embracing the spiritual dimension. A place of healing silence, a place with the qualities of sacred silence that is accessible for all, not just globetrotters and pilgrims, but especially for those who lack the outer or inner means. A place we can go to find silence, a place of contemplation, prayer and reflection, a place of the soul. The Communal Pavilion for Miracle Keepers
This is an age of information where information comes to us in many different ways, television, computers, etc. I believe there is far more to world knowledge that can be found through television, and the Internet.
The Communal building is a place created for the knowledge that is afforded through conversation. Also knowledge and information will be available via the extensive little library of books that will be donated to the complex by many of the relevant authors and publishers of today. A place of cool quiet conversation, a meeting place where the etiquette welcomes you to share your experiences or just sink in and enjoy a good book. Services and Bodywork
A wide range of holistic modestly priced therapies will be offered. The programs attend to the individual's needs holistically, while providing personalized attention for each guest. The Heart Rhythm Pavilion
Cultural Arts, Yoga and Movement –
