Question: Any tips on how to slowly realistically drop out of society!?
Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Meditation advice is most accurate!.

If you're concerned with physical isolation, the realistic basis is income; how to earn and maintain your land, taxes, etc!.

Alaska or even northern Canada are good places for those with sufficient income-producing skills!.

If you are able to practice a profession or skilled labor and remain unconditioned by it, that is ideal!.

E!.g!., working as a nurse or carpenter or postmaster in a small town or village!.

http://www!.easwaran!.org has a simple method of meditation!.

"Long Pilgrimage," John G!. Bennett,
"The Reincarnation of Edgar Cayce!?", Free and Wilcock,
"The Path of the Higher Self," Mark Prophet, all give good hints!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

cheap cabin they are around 6,000+,maybe even build it yourself,a spot of land maybe someones yard,some furniture/supplies from family/friends!.
A basic liveable income of some sort!.Internet acess if you would like to connect with society from time to time!.Some tape and pencils!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Be prepared to gradually let go of everything!.

Your job
Your home
Most of your possessions
Some or maybe all of your friends
Some or maybe all of your family
Your preconceived ideas on how life should be

Yes, it's very liberating but it comes at a price!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
