Code of Discipline
We exhibit our faith and promote our principles by individually striving to serve as a living example that ours truly is a Living Faith:
1. Each morning upon rising, at noon, and each evening before sleeping, give thanks for the life within you and for all life, for the good things the Creator has given you and for the opportunity to grow a little more each day. Consider your thoughts and actions of the past day and seek for the courage and strength to be a better person. Seek for the things that will benefit others (everyone).
2. Treat every person from the tiniest child to the oldest elder with respect at all times.
3. Never speak about others in a negative way, whether they are present or not.
4. Treat the earth and all of her aspects as your mother. Remember that the spirit of our Creator fills all creation and through Creator, all are interconnected.
5. Listen with courtesy to what others have to say, even if you feel that what they are saying is erroneous or without value. Listen with your heart, not your head.
6. Be truthful at all times, and under all conditions. Speak from your heart and spirit, not with your head.
7. Receive strangers and outsiders with a loving heart and as members of the human family. All the races and tribes in the world are like the different-colored flowers of one meadow. All are beautiful. As children of the Creator they must all be respected.
8. Observe moderation and balance in all things. Never take more than you need, always give thanks for what you receive and leave no sign of where you have walked.
9. To be of service to others, to be of some use to family, community, nation, and the world is one of the main purposes for which human beings have been created. True happiness comes only to those who dedicate their lives to the service of others.
10. Harm none, being ever mindful that the Creator's sacred web consists of both the animate and inanimate, the seen and the unseen.
"The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart."
-- Helen Keller
