A Living Vision
A Sanctuary in Hawai’i
A place of healing, remembrance, and return — held in the breath of the land. We are listening. We are preparing. We are walking toward this dream — together.
Phase Two of Our Vision: A Living Sanctuary in Hawai‘i — a sacred space where presence, prayer, and community take root in the land.
Join Our Vision
As we listen to the land that is calling us, we are guided by values that live deeply within it.
These core values — expressed through Hawaiian language and wisdom — have moved through us again and again as we walk this vision.
We share them here with deep respect, as guiding principles that resonate with our purpose: to serve, to tend, to restore relationship between land, spirit, and community.
We are building a sanctuary rooted in relationship — where all who come are welcomed as family. A place where belonging is remembered, and where we move beyond separation into shared care.
Our vision is to live in reciprocal relationship with the land — to listen, to tend, and to care for all beings who are part of this living sanctuary. Mālama calls us to walk with humility and responsibility.
This vision is not a possession — it is a kuleana, a sacred responsibility. To steward land with reverence. To create spaces of healing with integrity. To honor the trust of those who come. To remember that all life is interconnected, and our actions must serve the whole.
At the heart of this vision is aloha — not a word alone, but a way of being.
Aloha reminds us that we are woven into the great web of life through love, compassion, and shared breath.
It calls us to live and serve in right relationship — with one another, with the land, and with the unseen.
This is the spirit we seek to honor in all that we build.
This land is not just a place we hope to find — it is a living teacher. It reminds us that our practice, our purpose, and our mission must remain rooted: in ʻāina, in aloha, in responsibility to the whole. The sanctuary we envision is a space where these principles are not spoken, but lived.
— Dr. Howard Lipp, Co-Founder of The Temple
Vision
We hold the vision of finding and tending a piece of land in Hawai‘i — a living sanctuary where the Temple of Sound & Source can root more deeply, and offer what is needed for this time.
Presence
A place of presence, of community, of sacred work — where healing, nourishment, and remembrance unfold not in haste, but in rhythm with the land.
Connection
A place where we can move beyond separation — from technology, from overwhelm, from the fragmentation of modern life — and enter into true connection.
In True Connection
With one another
With the land
With our breath and body
With the Great Mystery that moves through all things
The land calls not to be possessed, but to be honored. Its breath moves through us, reminding us that healing is not separate from life itself. In this vision, we are not building a place — we are tending a living field of presence, of aloha, of the medicine that belongs to all of life.
— Ena Vie, Co-Founder of The Temple

What begins as a dream becomes a doorway.
This land is calling. We are listening.
And step by step, we are walking home.
