Being Ourself |
| Status: |
Member |
| Description: |
This is a group for people who recognize in a profoundly personal way that we are all actually facets of one whole interacting with itself, or more accurately, Ourself. It is a place for peer discussion and exploration as we move through the challenges and insights we encounter while participating in the awakening of ourselves to our common fundamental identity, Ourself. As indivisible aspects of the single, infinitely diverse entity of everything/reality/creation we all have an opportunity and a responsibility to deepen humankind's awareness of Ourself, and to enrich our language with new terminology/ideas to more accurately portray that which truly is. We want to support each other as we discover wholeness while living in a society that defines everything (including God) as separate when in fact the creator and creation (including all people, animals, plants, minerals, and seen and unseen forces of spirit) are not in any actual way separate. So don't be shy... your vantage point of the whole is completely unique, and is just as valid and important as anybody elses. Enlightenment is the recognition of the wholeness, which by its very all-inclusive nature negates the validity of any kind of exclusive spiritual authority or guru. To allow ourselves to truly feel and be aware of ourselves as part of the great wholeness we need to stop putting others on a pedestal as a way of avoiding being accountable for shining our own light. Let's get the orchestra of the wholeness playing diversely, brilliantly, and powerfully enough to wake up humankind from the illusion of separateness. We can only accomplish this as a community of distinct voices and insights singing out in the harmony of the whole, and not by silencing our own special voice because we have decided some other "enlightened" teacher has a monopoly on authenticity! So sing out your insights, your questions... cry out your pains and frustrations... and love your neighbor as yourself because in truth they are; we are all precious dimensions of one whole. Let's respectfully, gently, and lovingly be Ourself together. |

The National Jewish Outreach Program (NJOP) was established by Rabbi Ephraim Z. Buchwald in 1987, in response to the urgent need to address the critical issue of the spiraling losses of Jews from Jewish life due to assimilation and lack of Jewish knowledge. Since its founding, NJOP has become one of the largest and most successful outreach programs in the world and reaches out to Jews by offering them positive, joyous, Jewish educational opportunities and experiences. |

The Ecclectic Universal Community is dedicated to bringing peace and unity to the factionalized Spiritual and Religious community of man. We embrace and honor all the mainstream Religion's core values and beliefs, as they were originally taught by the founders of those belief systems.
We honor all spiritual paths, both Old and New, Pagan and Hermetic, as well as Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Vedic, Buddhist, Tao, Ba'hai, Zoroastrian, and all others as well.
We foster and teach the true teachings of Jesus, as we understand them from the Bibilical and Gnostic Texts. We honor and teach the Torah, Tenach and Quabbalah, Mishna and Gemara, as well as the New Testament, Aprochrypha, Koran, Emerald Tablets, and all other sacred texts.
We DO believe in ONE Creator, known by many names. We believe in absolute service to the ONE Creator, at all times throughout ones life.
From the Olde Religions of Druidism, Olde Witchcraft, Norse Traditions, we learn and teach the Practice of Magick. We do embrace, honor, and learn from the Standing People. While we are not Fairy Witches, nor any other Fae oriented religion, We Believe in and Honor the Fae Ffolke.
We are not New Age, although New Agers would feel right at home here. From the Enochian Tradition, we DO believe in Angels and Angelic Magick.
While we have many Native American and Aboriginal members, we make no claim to be a Tribe, Nation, or Clan. Although we DO honor Mother Earth and All Our Relations.
From the Western Mystery Traditions, we DO learn from Hermetics and teach the Inner Mysteries. We also learn from and teach Egyptian, Native American, Shamanic, and all other traditions and practices.
YET
We DO embrace any and all forms of spiritual practices. We study and teach all forms of Eastern and Western Mysticism.
While we are not specifically, or exclusively representative of any of the above beliefs or religions, we DO embrace them ALL. In that, we are different from other Churches and Spiritual Communities.
WE DO NOT VIEW OURSELVES AS BETTER OR WORSE THAN THE AFOREMENTIONED BELIEF SYSTEMS.
IN POINT OF FACE WE ARE A
NEW INTENTIONAL SPIRITUAL COMMUNITY,
COALESCED FROM THE BEST TEACHINGS OF ALL RELIGIONS, BROUGHT TOGETHER IN HARMONY AND UNITY UNIQUE AND DISTINCT IN THAT
We Believe that ALL IS ONE!
WE AFFIRM THAT
We are all manifestations of God/Goddess, being comprised of that source energy and created to be creative spiritual beings in a physical body. Co-creators of ALL THAT IS.
Therefore, we greet one another thus:
THOU ART GOD, or THOU ART GODDESS
To affirm our core creative birthright and to remind us to see and recognize the Divinity within one another.
Our goal is to provide a peaceful alternative to traditional religion, fostering unity and a kinder, gentler way of life, based on positive life transformational practices.
We cordially invite you to join us |
