美国共产主义社团——阿尔法农场介绍 公社历史

翻译:沧海

In The Beginning

开端

In 1971, four people in Philadelphia discovered a strong bond of agreement among them - an agreement that went beyond words. They shared a powerful spiritual "leading" - indeed, a compulsion - to embrace like-minded people in intentional community and to have faith in the spirit they felt. They realized that the social and political activism in which they were engaged needed to be relinquished, and something drastically different and really quite simple needed to take its place. They wrote in a prospectus, "The renewal of the social order, we now see, must begin with ourselves. We seek to change our basic assumptions and patterns of daily living; to accomplish this we must alter our patterns of thought. We must live ourselves into the future we seek."

1971年,费城的四位公民在他们的中间发现了一个强烈的联结协议——一种超越了文字的协议。他们共享着一种强大的精神导向——确实是,一种强迫性的冲动——去招聚理念社区里具有相似意向的人,并去信任他们所感受到的精神。他们意识到他们过去所从事的社会和政治激进主义需要被放弃,而一些彻底不同的、确实很简单的事情却必须让它发生。他们在一份内容说明书中写到:“我们看到,社会秩序的更新,必须从我们自身开始。我们寻求改变我们日常生活的基本担当和方式;为达到这个目的,我们必须改变我们的思维方式。我们必须在我们寻求的未来中做回自己。”

They felt with a deep certainty that for them a rural, holistic community needed to happen, and quickly - and events seemed to coalesce to bring it into existence. Within one short year of that initial vision, the land was found, funds were raised, like-minded people gathered, and community life began. As though by divine design, the name for the community was discovered: The old homestead, it turned out, had once served as a tiny post office named Alpha. How fitting! Alpha, the first letter of the Greek alphabet, meaning "the beginning."

他们感受到一种深深的确定性,那就是属于他们的一个乡下的、完整的社区需要被实现,而且要很快地—— 一些事件也恰好似乎在予以配合以将它带入现实。在短短的一年时间的梦想中,土地被找到了,基金也聚集起来了,相同理想的人也聚拢了,社区生活开始了。好像经过超凡的设计一样,公社的名称也被发现了:古老的遗产,翻出了一个曾为一个小邮局服务的名字,Alpha。好适宜的名字!Alpha,希腊字母表中的第一个字母,意味着“开端”。
