SolSeedCreed
From SolSeed
SolSeed < SolSeedMovement < SolSeedCreed
SolSeed offers its creed as a way to emotionally inspire people who embrace science and reason, rather than superstition, as ways to know the world.
- There is another version of the creed formatted for group reading.
The SolSeedCreed is a statement of the shared values that ground the SolSeedMovement. The SolSeedCreed asserts that life and that which sustains life is good and precious, and calls humanity to mature into its role as caretaker of SolSeed. TheDestiny is the ultimate expression of what nurturing and protecting life means. Being worthy of and fulfilling TheDestiny are the two ultimate goals held by members of the SolSeedMovement.
The SolSeedCreed also identifies empirically observable attributes of humanity that should be encouraged and balanced. The SolSeedCreed calls us to nurture and balance our innate capacities for SelfLove, Empathy, and Wisdom.
The SolSeedCreed
- Life is precious.
- It has always been precious,
- it will always be precious.
- Life creates the conditions for more Life,
- in an Upward Spiral of ever-growing possibilities.
- As you are alive and I am alive,
- and in kinship with all other beings
- nourished by Sol,
- we are SolSeed ---
- the Body of All Life.
- We believe
- that The Destiny of SolSeed
- is to take root amongst the stars ---
- to give birth to a family of living worlds.
- As SolSeed's intelligent spark,
- We are called to nurture Life,
- We are called to fulfill The Destiny.
- Our sacred duty is to
- embrace Passion,
- cultivate Empathy, and
- pursue Wisdom,
- So that our being honors SolSeed
- and our striving advances The Destiny.
- Passion drives us.
- Without Passion,
- Empathy and Wisdom are impotent.
- I pledge to identify and channel my passion,
- to embrace my animal nature ---
- to be my true self, Happy in the Sun!
- Empathy is transcendent.
- Without Empathy,
- Passion and Wisdom are evil.
- I pledge to love others as I love myself,
- to consider their needs as if they were my own ---
- to Grow Ours, not just Get Mine!
- Wisdom is effective.
- Without Wisdom,
- Passion and Empathy are feeble and capricious.
- I pledge to seek truth by studying the world around me,
- to develop intuitive wisdom through regular practice ---
- to Cultivate Sound Instincts!
- Through Passion, Empathy, and Wisdom
- we have come to know that:
- We are SolSeed;
- Children of the sun,
- Awakened by starlight,
- Growing, nurturing, discovering,
- We Bring Life!

At first glance I was put off by the word "holy" as it appears in the Creed, but on reflection, what could be holier than preserving, protecting, and nurturing every living being on this planet? -Kevin
