We Acknowledge That:
- The One transcends any possible preconceived notions we may have.
-Divinus and Natura Mater are just two names among many that describe the two aspects of the One which are most tangible to us. These names are equal to Spirit and Matter, God and Goddess, Lord and Lady and many other names as well.
-We need to attempt to be as a healthy branch on a tree and not a dried twig, allowing the current of life to move us and within us.
-It is important to remain spiritually mindful while remaining well-grounded. We root in the Natural World, while doing our best to not be caught up in the System of human dramatics and ego-building .
-We must recognize our bodies as the vessels which carry us through this life and treat them with care and compassion
-We should honour and respect the wisdom imparted to us from the Great Teachers of the World, both past and present.
-We should honour and respect the Blessings imparted to us from the One, through the Divine in the Natural World.
-We should strive to cause as little suffering as possible, both to the Natural World and Humankind.
-We should strive to ease suffering to the best of our abilities, both to the Natural World and Humankind.
-We must recognize the ways in which we are all interconnected, while at the same time recognizing that as human beings, we are each different and unique. Different paths have their own understanding of the One, based on different traditions and cultures. We feel that all paths that focus on spiritual growth, mercy and love, while denouncing bigotry, violence, racism, manipulation of thought and oppression are Sister paths of our own. We respect other paths and encourage the spiritual journey of the individual.
