One World Wisdom

 


Do not let the events of September 11, 2001 lead the world into greater violence, 
fear, and hatred.

THE PLAN

Harmony in the Mind
Peace in the Heart
Strength in Numbers

The crisis of 9-11 (2001) has brought the danger of separateness to the
consciousness of humanity in the area of religion and belief systems as
never before.  In our history almost every conflict has been fueled by
religious differences and a lack of toleration.  These differences have all
too often led to war, persecution and devastation.

A point little realized is that there also definitely exists a similarity
of belief common to all religions that is more pronounced today than ever
before.  Imagine what would happen if the people of the world were to focus
on the similarities of belief rather than our differences.

Imagine...

The point is that if we have our attention  on similarities, then there is
less attention available to focus on differences.

To take advantage of this principle a plan has been developed.  That plan
is the Sixteen Principles of Unification.

The idea in a nutshell is to present these principles to the common people
of the various religions with the hope that millions will one day endorse
them.  When this day comes, the idea of union will begin to permeate the
leadership in the various religions and governments. When this is realized,
the hatred of one religion toward another will diminish and eventually all
will cease their thoughts of war and live within a peaceful co-existence.

To become a member of this movement all you have to do is this:
Fill out the form below and hit "Send."  This states that you "endorse and
accept the principles of unification."

Membership is free and no demands will be made on you.  Your only
obligation will be to accept the principles.  It will be entirely up to you
as to how you incorporate them into your life.

There is hope in creating a more peaceful planet by reminding people of all
religions that all men and women are brothers and sisters.  To love one
another is much more pleasing to all versions of Deity than hate.


THE COMMITMENT

We the undersigned openly declare unto all the people living upon the
planet that we seek a peaceful co-existence with all the nations, religions
and inhabitants of the earth. We accept the fact that there are differences
in philosophical, religious and political beliefs, but believe that the
power of our unity is greater than that which separates us. As evidence of
this, we submit the sixteen Principles of Unification, which is endorsed by
the hearts of the vast majority of all people.


THE 16 PRINCIPLES OF UNIFICATION

1.  I believe there is good will and a desire for peace in the great majority of people, groups and religions and accept the idea of peaceful co-existence as an ideal for which to strive. I further realize that the majority of people wish to live in peace despite their differing beliefs.

2.  I acknowledge that there exists a higher intelligence typically thought of as GOD but referred to by a variety of names.

3.  Even though this Being or Intelligence is called by differing names and descriptions, I acknowledge that this same God is over all mankind and that we are children of God, brothers and sisters. Essentially, humanity is one family.

4. I believe that the will of God would include the best possible outcome for all of humanity. The goal of "Peace on Earth, Goodwill to Humankind" is a goal I embrace.

5.  I embrace the principle of Love and seek to love my neighbor as I do myself. I seek to do unto others as I would have others do unto me. I seek to serve both God and humanity.

6.  I embrace the Principle of Light in that I seek greater understanding. I realize I have knowledge of some things but do not know all things about either God or humankind, and therefore seek to know more. I believe that I can progress in knowledge and understanding of spiritual principles. I seek to ever expand my learning. I am open to a fresh outlook when greater light and truth are revealed to me.

7.  I accept the principle of cause and effect and embrace the simple idea as taught in all spiritual movements that good and loving deeds, actions and thoughts will bring good results, while harmful actions will bring destructive results. I therefore seek to do good to all mankind that good will return to me.

8.  I accept the Principle of Freedom. I allow all people to worship, speak and believe how, where or what they may, so long as they comply with the just laws of the land (laws which protect the whole of the people). I do not support imposing my beliefs on others by force.

9.  I accept the principle of communion. Through prayer, thought or contemplation, I can gain a greater awareness of God's purpose, God's will and God's love.

10.  I believe that my existence will continue even after the death of the physical body, and therefore seek to live mortal life in such a way that the afterlife of myself and others will be a happy experience.

11.  I believe in the Principle of Sharing to assist those less fortunate than myself. I support the elimination of poverty, disease and ignorance from the human condition that all may live abundantly. I realize that this must be accomplished through working with the free will of humanity, not through force, and that sharing includes more than the material.

12. I believe that true spiritual principles and facts are in harmony with proven science as is all truth no matter where it is discovered. In all situations I seek to know the truth rather than settle for that which is false.

13.  I accept the principle of harmlessness and in this spirit I do not support any first aggression toward any nation, group or individual. If there is no first aggression, there will not be a second.

14.  I support the principle of harmonious and good relationships and seek to be an ambassador of goodwill with my family, friends, groups and nations that all may benefit from contact with me. I embrace kindness in all my contacts.

15.  I support the principle of honesty and seek to tell the truth consistently.

16.  I accept the fact that beneficial teachers, innovators and servants of humanity have appeared in times past for the benefit of all and realize that others will yet manifest. I seek to prepare my mind and heart to accept the good, the beautiful and the true when they present themselves.
