Dare to be different!
We believe in an all-wise, all-powerful, eternal Spiritual Mystery, called many
different things by many different people. Whether it is God, Goddess, Buddha, Jesus,
Muhammad, Great Spirit, Great Mother, or an entire pantheon of Deities, we believe in a
powerful Presence existing in everything and everyone.
We believe that this Presence creates all forms of life in its imagination and
passes on this creative force to all beings. We believe that although anyone can choose
to use this creative force for constructive or destructive purposes, our spiritual
evolution depends upon the wise, generous, and loving use of it.
We believe that we experience reality based upon our perceptions; similarly, at any
time we choose, we can change those perceptions and thus change our reality. We
further believe that we have the innate spiritual power to heal all conditions by
transforming fear, changing perceptions and beliefs through prayer, and being willing to
live these changes authentically.
We believe in the right of everyone to have personal spiritual beliefs. We do not
attempt to convert anyone to our beliefs because they are founded upon ancient and
original mystical principles found in all world religions and spiritual philosophies.
We believe in the power and guidance within dreams, intuition and expanded
realities, and we courageously trust in the Presence of the Divine in all aspects of living.
We believe that life is innately good and that our lives align with that good when we
actively express our gratitude for it.
We believe that all forms of life emerge from the same Source and make us all
One, and that separation and isolation is impossible except as a limited perception.
We believe that concepts of heaven and hell originate in the mind and only exist
according to our belief in them. We believe we can experience peace in the midst of
chaos as well as misery in the midst of joy depending upon our choices of perception.
We believe in the importance of healthy emotion as a way our Souls guide and
express through us.
We believe our Souls choose our important life experiences before birth as a way
to evolve spiritually. We believe our Souls make agreements with other Souls before
lifetimes, even and especially if difficult, in order to assist one another in evolving
spiritually.
We believe that the Divine Presence is directly accessible to all without the need
for an intercessor.
We believe in truthfulness, integrity, humor, courage, and unconditional love as
essential ingredients for a full, healthy and spiritually evolving life.
We believe in the ongoingness of life and that whether we have multiple lifetimes or
just one, the essence of life is eternal.
We believe in the importance of individuality as a unique expression of the Divine
Presence. And as such, we embrace diversity and equality in all forms whether by race,
sexual preference, gender, culture, age, physical or mental challenges, and personal
beliefs as long as they do not seek to judge or reject others’ beliefs. The image of
EarthSpirit Center as a Rainbow Community illustrates well these beliefs.
We believe that our life’s purpose is to discover the Divine Presence within and to
be everything that we are meant to be as magnificent examples of this Presence.
We believe in actively living these principles, and in so doing we become examples of
our beliefs.
