Statement 20 (Vol 4 No 41)

We assert that the visible experiential and secular world is part of a spiritual world which, though defying adequate description, is expressed in the human search for a better humanity, a more compassionate human being, a new being, always looking towards preserving the planet and at the same time searching for a new creation in which the best and highest values are manifest.  There is a vital search for a harmonious relationship between the everyday human experience and a higher (or deeper) spiritual awareness.


In our human search for meaning

For our true humanity,

We look for increased compassion

To be offered graciously;

We search for a new creation,

For new life in harmony,

For new being manifesting

All our values’ quality.

 

In our search we are expressing

Our own spirit’s energy;

Our rich bond with growth of spirit

Gives our life vitality;

All the secular and common

Partner in the mystery;

Though defying our descriptions

Spirits sing life’s liturgy.

 

So we search for real connection

Of that which is ‘everyday’

To awareness of the spirit

Permeating all our way;

Such connection gives life meaning,

How we live and what we say;

When we make this rich connection

Then our love is on display.
