Harmony not Upset

Right vs. Wrong ... a strong sense of morality

  • Not right to cheat
  • Pick things up
  • Don't break things
  • Live lightly on the earth
  • Support the personal growth of others
  • Don't hurt them back
  • Life is precious "If you found this on Mars!"

There is nothing wrong here

  • I'm okay ... I am enough
  • Now is all you have
  • Suffering comes from wishing things were different

There should be a canon

  • Songs ... ohh alafea ashay ashay
  • Poems
  • Essays
  • Books

Scientific World View

  • One of the best ways we have for understanding ourselves and all that is

We have rituals so we might as well be intentional about them

Enriched by a scientific understanding of how our minds work

Embodiment ... the human creature is embodied (the following are central to our spirituality)

  • ritual
  • aesthetics

Healthy behaviors such as eating, drinking, playing, sleeping, exercising, cardio, stetching, strength are critical for a well rounded human being.

Relationships matter

  • Family matters
  • Connecting with others matters
  • Openness ... non-judgement ... acceptance ... open hand -- not grasping
  • Delight in another who is being "Happy in the sun"
