Part One: The Forced Disbandment to the Second Home Ecovillage Project from Yunnan Authorities (http://lifechanyuan.org/bbs/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=6647&extra=page%3D1)
China's Largest Ecovillages, the Second Home of Lifechanyuan, had been illegally but successfully forced to close by the Yunnan Authorities from April 25th, 2013 through April 1st, 2014. One hundred and thirteen permanent residents of the Second Home ecovillage project, part of the Global Ecovillage Network (GEN), had been given notice to vacate but with no offers of assistance or compensation from the Yunnan authorities.
As the largest ecovillage project in China, the core values of the Second Home are to revere the Greatest Creator, nature, and LIFE, to walk on the way of the Greatest Creator and follow the way of nature. The ideal of our communities is to create a new life mode where people, nature and society can coexist harmoniously, and where nobody worries about their survival needs of food, clothes, shelter, transportation, birth, aging, sickness, and death,and everyone will lead happy, joyful, free, and blessed lives. People here live together in a big harmonious family and all resources belong to the community. Everyone can choose one job to do and contribute to the community to best of their ability and everyone’s nature and talents can be fully utilized like blossoming flowers. This is a fairyland full of sincerity, kindness, beauty,love, and trust. Through creating and building such a new life mode where people, regardless of their nations, political parties, cultures, ethnicities, and families, can live together happily, harmoniously, and freely. The Second Home is leading a life that accords with the earth’s sublimated consciousness and walks into a higher civilized level with other like-minded individuals and communities throughout the world.
The values and life mode of the Second Home had been monitored by local authorities throughout its establishment and development, and they had sent government officials from local departments to come and investigate us many times. Finally, after ten years observation online (our websites) and five years development of the community life, they still worried that one day our community would develop into an ‘illegal organization’, and regarded us as a potential threat to the stability ofChinese society. This caused the forced disbandment event.

Part Two: The Evacuation Process of the Second Home Ecovillage Project
During the time between the withdrawal and the beginning of rebuilding, no extreme or adverse events happened. The government gave us no monetary compensation or relocation allowance. They did not make things difficult, though. Everything was done in a friendly atmosphere and the evacuation process of the Second Home proceeded in a very orderly way. Among the 150 people, mainly women, children, and elderly, those who were able, had left the community and had gone out to work in society, and those who still have homes in which to return, had returned home. The rest of our members who were homeless came all the way across 5,000 kilometers to the Gobi Desert in westernmost China to build new homes, beginning in January, 2014. There are only a few shabby houses; no toilets or shower rooms, not even kitchens or dining rooms. In February, 2014, we found another opportunity to develop a large ecological project with fifty acres in the east. We will engage to develop a new ecological garden by cooperating with its land manager. We will give up establishing a new lifestyle like the Second Home in China at this stage, and change the project direction to organic farming and ecotourism, etc.
Dozens of elderly members' lives have been properly arranged and all children have been sent to local public schools. At this stage, our three new settlements are in the stage of rebuilding, and eighty Chanyuan celestials are involved in the construction. The names of our three new homes are: Kataier (http://lifechanyuan.org/bbs/forum.php?mod=forumdisplay&fid=211), Gesaer (http://lifechanyuan.org/bbs/forum.php?mod=forumdisplay&fid=210), and Nanhua Farms (http://lifechanyuan.org/bbs/forum.php?mod=forumdisplay&fid=212).
