Saba Affiliation
Structure
Saba Cooperative is a 508(c)(1)(a) interfaith religious organization — a container for autonomous missions, ministries, and sacred projects under a distributed congregational model.
Pneuma is one such mission, with two local circles:
- Pneuma · Ashland (Oregon) — fellowship & study
- Pneuma · Frontera (New Mexico) — sacramental community
Saba provides shared religious standing, values alignment, and affiliation — not day-to-day managerial control over circle gatherings.
Myco-Method
Myco-Method is the training tradition through which Pneuma guides are formed. It is associated with Saba and Pneuma but is not the public name of either community circle.
Principles shared with Saba
From Saba Cooperative:
- Spiritual freedom and sovereignty
- Ecological reverence and reciprocity
- Non-extractive collaboration
- Interfaith mysticism and sacred practice
- Non-aggression — no force, fraud, or coercion
