Life Temple’s Foundational Spiritual Principles
SOURCE
We place our trust in an ancient, boundless energy—the original Source and sustainer of all that exists. Beyond the reach of words and understanding, this eternal force flows through every aspect of creation, manifesting as a continuous cycle of transformation in the natural world. Through spiritual practices like meditation, we seek to connect with this sacred energy, recognizing it as the vital essence of the universe. By aligning ourselves with this essence, we embrace the fundamental purpose of existence.
EARTH
We hold the Earth as sacred, acknowledging it as the cradle of life… As mindful inhabiters, we strive to protect its essential balance. Our bond with the Earth transcends the physical, nurturing our emotional well-being and expanding our spiritual awareness. We affirm our right to elevate anything derived from the Earth to the status of sacrament, honoring its spiritual significance and the profound ways it nurtures our growth and transformation. We consecrate the land and spaces we inhabit, dedicating them as hallowed in our collective devotion to the Earth.
BEING
We affirm that freedom is fundamental to our being and essential to our spirituality. This deep, innate desire for freedom within every human being underscores its crucial role in our spiritual journey. We believe that every phase of existence—birth, life, and death—is sacred and should remain unhindered. We uphold our Natural rights to live freely and pursue happiness while respecting the Natural rights of others.
UNITY
Acknowledging our shared genetics, as demonstrated by scientific evidence, we recognize that we are all, quite literally, related to each other. Despite this profound connection, we find ourselves divided by religion, politics, economics, culture, and ideology—divisions that often feel imposed upon us. By transcending these barriers and raising our collective consciousness, we strive to create a world of peace and harmony for all. In this pursuit, we fully embrace our identity as one, global family.
PRACTICE
At Life Temple, we embrace a variety of spiritual practices designed to cultivate presence and relieve suffering. These practices harmonize the body, mind, and emotions, leading to a deeper sense of balance. We honor the individuality of each person’s spiritual journey, supporting their growth by emphasizing mindfulness and conscious engagement with life. Focusing on physical, mental, and emotional well-being inspires genuine and purposeful living, shaping a community that values authenticity and intention.
ETERNITY
Inspired by the fundamental properties of energy—ever-changing, yet indestructible—we recognize our essential being as eternal… Though the mysteries of the afterlife currently elude us, our focus lies firmly in the here and now, where elevating consciousness and holistic practices are paramount.
We are committed to healing the physical and emotional, expanding consciousness, and serving others on their journey —embodying a path of wellness, enlightenment, and support.
