Why does it have to be a commune of 20 or so people? Why not all just go into nature and live off the land solo?? That requires no investment whatsoever and can be started within 48 hours.

If we are a group of 20 people.
Living of the land will be very easy!

5 people goes hunting
5 people goes fishing
3 people work a small field
2 people make improvments to our habitat
5 people help around, cooking and making tools


You're going to need more than 3 people to grow crops for 20. Unless you have over 100 acres majority of your land will need to function for growing some type of crops (and not just food even), rather than just a "small field".

You're going to want to check up on land prices in your target region (step one).

Check for micro-regions where other people of your home state and potential thinking have also 'colonized', for better odds of assimilation.

Check gun laws of your target region.

Check seed importation laws. Will you be able to bring in an exotic seed bank with you for prosperity, or will they limit you to what is local?

We can find more food then we need. Clean sources of water everywhere in parvatti. Around 800 waterfalls lol. Not to mention the massive Parvatti river. That place has enough to go around


I'm kind of confused. It was my understanding that India is one of the most densely populated and undernourished locations on earth, and one of the key hot spot regions for looming "Water Wars"? Even if it isn't in your target region, property prices must be a fortune (relatively).

You're best bet might be to scrounge (Craigslist, yards sales, thrift stores, etc) up materials , tools and other equipment at 'home' for a year, and then pack a 40' shipping container to the brim and ship it all there in one shot, rather than move there and be limited to what can be acquired locally. Shipping a 40' container to Argentina cost something like $4,000. Show up with a biodiesel processor and the like, to have a solid business plan.

And why India? You'll be HARD PRESSED to assimilate. Argentina might be a vastly better destination for you, and plenty of people are already moving there from everywhere else.

What does your Zeitgeist Movement propaganda have anything to do with surviving in India??

This is EXACTLY what I've been thinking for awhile now, I'm now 25. I haven't really looked into exactly where yet but with help from a man like above India seems like it would be great.

I just want to live in peace....

It is most certainly an excellent idea. I know of several churches in my area which are doing exactly that. They find huge pieces of land in the middle of nowhere and the church and many of its congregation congregate to that land building houses and buildings and such and so forth. I wouldn't want to live in India however. I'm a Red White and Blue blooded American so I prefer to live in the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave. At least here I am assured of my rights at least for the time being or as long as the American people don't let some foreign born muslim take away our God-given rights. God Bless America!!
