welcome to
One Haiku.
One Haiku was born from our deep passion for spiritual growth and inner development. In our home-style environment, we welcome like-hearted people to nurture their spirit and empower themselves through a simple, back-to-nature approach to learning and healing.
We open the door for those on a journey toward Divine Truth, drawing inspiration from the Japanese idiom Oubaitori (桜梅桃李), which reminds us that everyone blooms in their own way and in their own time, honoring the unique path each of us walks toward Truth.
How We Operate.
as a temple:
We are organized as a pure unincorporated, non-statutory spiritual temple, reserving all rights for freedom of religion, speech, press and contract.
We operate exclusively for spiritual, edificational, alchemical and benevolent purposes, without motivation of private gain nor for the benefit of any private individual or shareholder.
as individuals:
We hold that every (wo)man is responsible for the expressions and actions of themselves and their minor offspring; self-governing accordingly within the One Haiku community.
our Temple.
our sacred space:
We see Earth as our sanctuary, the lab as our oratory, and our body as our temple. Thus, we find one is ‘in-temple’ at all times.
where we meet:
We meet in nature, in private homes and in public places in the Pacific Northwest on the land of Washington-state, north of Mount Tahoma.
the GARDEN:
Our garden is where the transformation begins! It’s a creative space for experiments, gatherings, and medicine-making. Like us, the garden is ever-evolving; It’s a living reflection of our journey and progress.
Help us Grow!
the laboratory:
Our laboratory is a space where physical Earth transforms into ethereal healing remedies, bridging the mortal to the Divine. This is where intentional alchemical processes breathe life into elixirs, tinctures, teas, and medicines.

our core values.
As we grow and change over time, we find that our understanding of the natural world evolves with greater understanding. Within these realizations we find the following to be both foundational principles and core values for a community which seeks to know Truth and live in harmony with all.
.
Seek Balance.
We live in a world of polarities (perceived as opposites). To seek balance is to see these polarities on a single plane; as a variation of one thing and thus removing perceived conflict and separation.
"Being and non-being create each other. Difficult and easy support each other. Long and short define each other. High and low depend on each other."
.
Respect Nature.
When we look at nature we find many wonders that teach us about ourselves and we find answers to questions we didn’t think to ask. We honor Earth with all her cycles, her lifeforms and her state of being.
"This world is indeed a living being endowed with a soul and intelligence … a single visible living entity containing all other living entities, which by their nature are all related."
.
Honor Life & Death.
On this plane, wherever there is life, there is also death. Life and death are two values on the spectrum of Being. And so, we find them to be an expression of the same thing.
We value Existence as a great teacher and we seek to respect and master the art of Being.
"Energy cannot be created or destroyed, it can only be changed from one form to another."
.
Create & Express.
The fundamental and spiritual-root characteristic of Man is to create. It is a freedom within our natural state that can never be taken.
"Art enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time."
.
Love & Nurture.
Love is also a fundamental and spiritually rooted characteristic of Man that can never be taken. To love is to use one’s own will to actively care for another’s well being.
.
Preserve & Protect the Self.
Self care, self preservation, self love, self defense. We all have the right to preserve and protect our body, mind, emotion and spirit.
.
Full (Dis)closure.
We interact with people every day. Our interactions with others create invisible contracts that are made by our intentions and actions. These contracts are often unknown to us but affect us greatly. We value honest interactions with people and strive for full (dis)closure of all written and unwritten contracts.
.
Good Faith, Clean Hands, Proper Notice.
We value honorable actions done with a good-faith effort and we value genuine actions performed with clean hands. Proper notice of intention and action is one of the major ways one can interact with others in honor.
.
Know Truth.
We are Truth seekers who see Truth as the path to higher consciousness, an expanded heart, and greater connection with others. Truth brings sovereignty and strength on an individual and communal level.
our services.
Our experiences center on flora and fauna, artistic expression, spiritual enrichment, and the freedom to explore beyond the confines of dogma.
We cultivate a community that values unity, Earthly harmony, self-mastery, sovereignty, and wisdom, offering both real-life and online interactions for adults, youth, and families who seek a nature-based, heart-centered communityand wish to expand their spiritual self-awareness.”
