Nature Boy – Ben Zand in search of the cult leader – BBC Stories
Apr 2024
06
In the jungles of Costa Rica alternative communities have removed themselves from Western life attempting to create their paradise on earth. Ben Zand heads to meet some of these groups, and to search for a controversial cult leader called Nature Boy. Nature Boy runs a group called Melanation and has convinced thousands of people online to follow his message. He’s even convinced people to give him money, and to give up everything they own to live with him in the tropics. But, is paradise really as good as it sounds?

1 year agoWe're never as strong, as we are until we have to be. Never Do as much, unless the need we see. Only give our best, when we fail at mediocrity. We Love rather than hate when we admit we're one humanity. We always give more, when compassion moves our heart with unbridled generosity. We Become more of our potential when we are made to see, that clearly our minds can believe in unfathomable possibilities, while seizing every opportunity, here in lies one's destiny. More than our scars, higher than our stars, for in our flaws are what defines our features, they're uniquely ours, as human creatures.
We can run faster than on our slowest day. Reason better, and thinking it through all the way, regardless which direction our emotions may sway. We can find our voice when speechless, our strong words with meekness and our Courage in weakness. Always patience not quickness. Silence for peace than loudness, quietness of fear, not hopeless, for time and effort are equally unbiased. We are more than the stories we're told, we're the one's we write, each page unfold. We are the sum of our Lies and truth, fantasy, fiction, faith, and myths, no matter how uncouth. These are what shape us, our lives lived is the proof. We can be more right than wrong. More just than judge. More godlike than unlike. Reflecting Sunlight in our darkest night.
Providing refuge. Never more alive until we die within and begin again. A Human Ark Divine in our human spark. That's who we are,
Who and what we can be, we can become.

@andbeyond9085
1 year agoBen, amazing your documentary is! 👍 @19:59, the man referred something to East Africa. In an East African nation of oldest Christianity, every 30th of September, over 20million Oromos, officially, celebrate the holiday of River Worship – The Great Ireechaa. — Cult has existed in that East African area; Emperor Haile Selasse was a vivid cult whose rituals still exist in everyday life of Rastafarian community in the Caribbean region. Rastafarians avoid wearing shoes in East Africa. In this documentary, too, nakedness is a necessasity. What a similiarity!
