- Als Lomaland wurde ein Gelände im kalifornischen Point Loma bei San Diego bezeichnet. Hier hatte Katherine Tingley um 1900 eine theosophische Gemeinschaft ins Leben gerufen, die ebenso soziale und erzieherische Aufgaben wahrnahm. Bis 1942 war auch das Hauptquartier der Theosophischen Gesellschaft in Amerika (TGinA) dort situiert und ein theosophisches Weltzentrum entstanden. (de)
- Lomaland was a Theosophical community located in Point Loma in San Diego, California from 1900 to 1942. Theosophical Society leader Katherine Tingley founded it in 1900 as a school, cultural center, and residential facility for her followers. The American headquarters of the Theosophical Society Pasadena was also situated there. The facility was important to the growing city of San Diego for its cultural offerings, and it left a lasting legacy in its campus (now Point Loma Nazarene University) which still retains many of the unique architectural features of the original Lomaland. The residents of Lomaland also transformed their Point Loma neighborhood by planting so many trees, orchards and shrubs that the formerly barren neighborhood is now known as the "Wooded Area". Led by Katherine Tingley, the group came to Point Loma to establish a community that would model the philosophical and humanitarian goals of Theosophy. The "White City" envisioned by Tingley was to be located on the extreme western edge of the North American continent but oriented toward India, the spiritual center of Theosophical beliefs. The blend of new world confidence, Victorian morality, a love of antiquity, and Indian spirituality created a unique community that found its expression in architecture that is still visible on the campus of Point Loma Nazarene University.
