" Real People's Stories Links About ...Kerista Articles - History of the Kerista CommuneHistory of the Kerista Communefrom the "Kerista Village Handbook" February 1979Kerista Village dates back to February 1971, when Brother Jud and Even Eve met each other for the first time. Kerista itself, however, has a longer history that traces back through several earlier phases...The work Kerista itself came about through a mystical experience, quite uncalled for, in the mind of Jud back in 1956. The word, and the accompanying experience, were enough at that time to jolt Jud out of his fairly straight lifestyle and propel him into a search for meaningful religiousness and communal living. In 1956 both were in rather short supply. In close to a dozen different experimental attempts, Jud, along with others he met, tried to establish a viable communal lifestyle. Before long the quest has become closely intermingled with the idea of Utopian Paradise"..." In 1973, they started the Storefront Classroom, a free newspaper featuring articles on ecology, nutrition, psychology and alternative technology, comics ("Far Out West" by Even Eve) and a directory of San Francisco stores and resources. The paper was a success, both economically and in terms of local popularity. A year or so later they put out the first issue of Utopian Eyes magazine, which focussed on the esoteric issues of lifestyle, communal living, and the ins and outs of Keristan theory and practice. Both of these publications are alive and well still." (from Kerista Commune). Very Good .
