Description:
This is a DVD from WGCU Public Media. It describes four different Florida communities that came to Florida seeking a place where they could grow. This included the Koreshan Unity. The description reads:
Since the late 1800s, Florida has been a haven for spiritual pioneers searching for the “ideal life” in what many consider the ideal communal environment.
From the Cassadaga Spiritualist Camp in central Florida to Koreshan Unity in Estero to Kashi Ashram in Sebastian to Collier County’s Ave Maria, WGCU’s one—hour program explores the ideas behind each of these spiritual communities and attempts to answer the question: Did followers of these individual spiritual communities find heaven on Earth?
