The Seven Principles on the Path of Love
The Seven Principles on the Path of Love
1. The universe is a phenomenon of Love and its ripest fruit is the
awakened heart.
2. The heart awakens in the act of rising up toward, attaining and
ultimately rising beyond the Beauty it holds as its highest ideal.
3. The pure essence of every world faith is an ennobling ideal;
the sum of these ideals is the spiritual heritage of the contemporary
human heart.
4. The awakening heart experiences in itself and, accordingly,
stimulates in others Love, Harmony and Beauty.
5. Love is the progressive experiential realization of the existential
unity underlying the multiplicity and diversity of manifestation.
6. Harmony is the sympathetic resonance and fellowship that flows
naturally from the realization of unity in multiplicity.
7. Beauty is the elusive and evolving object of adoration and
aspiration that guides hearts individually and collectively in their
awakening — an endless pursuit.
