There is a Sanctuary;
At the Heart of True Spiritual Community.
Won't you enter there today?
The Great Yogi Milarepa said;
All the water and drink you’ve consumed
Though beginningless time until now
Has failed to slake thirst or bring you contentment.
Drink therefore the stream
of enlightenment mind, fortunate ones.
Help create a Universal Spiritual Community.
With mature dedication we can embody our highest ideals.
Because the Whole is greater then the sum of its part!
Would you like to connect with dedicated individuals striving to recognize and serve the highest aspirations of humanity? One Goal of a group so formed could be to manifest a network of Intention Spiritual Communities embracing the ideals of Universal Fellowship. These ideals nurtured in your heart; by your thoughts, feelings & actions would foretell the dawn of spiritual awakening.
It’s often said that to be truly happy, you should do what you love and love what you do. Can we further enhance the depth of our awareness; by seeking that which enriches us spiritually; doing what truly establishes a more universal love & wisdom in our hearts & minds?
Many will recognize that intentional spiritual community has the potential to both challenge and supports our deep aspirations; perhaps more then most other social environments. In my mind the ideal situation would be a "free" mutually supportive environment of spiritually mature individuals dedicated to the welfare of their family, friends, community, society and world.
How can such an ideal become manifest? Ideals manifest through dedicated action. In an environment of mature dedication we can share our ideals with a deep consideration and commitment to each other and our world. If you believe an Intentional Spiritual Community with a Culture of Universal Fellowship has the potential to change your life then it deserves your sacred consideration. And if that is so, it is your sacred obligation to make it a reality in your life and in the lives of all whom you care for.
There's virtually nothing that I've given more consideration to in my life. I've observed, participated; both failed and succeeded. Perhaps you have as well, or are now considering more deeply your direction for the future. If so, embrace your hearts dedication rght now; so we can begin building a communitarian network of Spiritual Universalist and Practical Idealist.
Let our purpose be;
to deeply consider the Ideals of Ageless Wisdom,
&
To manifest Universal Fellowship –
in the temple of our hearts and minds.
What is Ageless Wisdom? That which is essential truth without beginning or end is called by many names; some call it Perennial Wisdom, or Eternal Wisdom, in the east the same is Sanatana Dharma, or perhaps Bodhidharma. It is Gnosis. It is called by other names as well. It is known by the mystics of all ages and cultures who feel that there is a transcendental ideal, infinite & eternal, which encompasses all. This ideal without beginning or end, can not be shut out or excluded anywhere. Nothing can be outside that, because there is no outside. There is only an Infinite wholeness and no other. Consider it the very highest ideal of an Idealist. Religiously let’s say there are two types of visions. There is vision which separates and judges everything; and there is vision which unifies and heals everything. The later vision is universal ageless wisdom, which is all embracing.
What then is a Universalist? Such a person today will not necessarily, nor even likely, be the member of any particular religion or sect, yet wishes all well. Such a person would be concerned with essential precepts, which lead toward an all embracing vision of reality rather than any dogma which causes the mind to limit and separate anything; seen or unseen. A Universalist is by nature a person dedicated to the deep mysteries of heart & mind; Such a Universal Idealist strives also be a practical caring person; yearning to end suffering because any suffering, is their suffering; realizing that ending separateness eventually leads to wholeness and the end of suffering.
We might just as well ask; spiritually what is a New Age Universalist. The heart of the matter is the same. First of all what is “new” must be something that springs from a direct personal realization, in the ever present moment. Spiritual Awakening truly is something ever new, fresh & vibrant, beauties blossom. When creativity and innovation is actually directed by a true spiritual awakening then we can call our actions and our guiding spirit, new age.
If you recognize the value of ideas such as these, or wish to, or you already embrace and strive to live by these and similar ideas, don’t you also recognize that you should share and develop them whenever you have the chance? Many individuals seek to discover universal ideals, because these same ideals are secreted in their hearts, but they don’t find many avenues for expression. Let us create opportunities to manifest a truly New Age Universal Way and a fellowship dedicated to the mystic’s path of ageless wisdom.
The most enriching holistic lifestyle would be when we have a deep personal connection to all the people and living beings in our little world; and though them to connect with all life on the planet and spirits everywhere. How often do we have a deep meaningful feeling for all the people in our life; our co-worker, our boss, our doctor, our neighbors and their families, the people we disagree with, and the ones who disagree with us?
If you consider what a big step it is to initiate universal fellowship you would be sure to take it very seriously.
