Our Premises

“The end does not justify the means.” “Love is the means to the end.” ~ Dr. David Hawkins MD, Ph.D., The Eye of the I
Humans are limited but not inadequate. Ignorance due to innocence is our only defect.
Consciousness is primary: the capacity for awareness is at the center of EVERY experience.
God is Consciousness Itself, not limited by concepts, perceptions, doctrines or anthropomorphic projections.
God is alive as love (radiant intelligence) on every scale of existence.
The appearance of a single atom is astonishing. Existence itself is profoundly mysterious, paradoxical and unexplainable.
God as Consciousness shows the way of the heart: We surrender to God in the same way God surrenders to us.
Egocentricity shifts as one’s operational platform moves from ego to the State of Love.
Nonduality (only God/Consciousness exists) replaces duality (good/evil) with singularity.
Reality is a quality of freedom existing prior to explanations of it. Awe and wonder is our response.
Love is the unlimited, unconditional state that exists prior to, and beyond, its expression as an emotion. It replaces how ego turns love into something for self-serving manipulation.
The sacred work we do is removing obstacles from The State of Love within. We are called to live from this State of Love rather than to seek it as if it were absent.
Spiritual life is profoundly ordinary and practical.
Courage is essential if to release false identities, illusions, blame and victimhood; these are concepts inherited over centuries of human culture, and that unwittingly get passed on to future generations.
Recognizing the horror of our own complicity in ignoring who we actually are, is the essential doorway to the second birth of competent adulthood.
Presence, as the State of Love, inspires an exhaustive, comprehensive and radical recontexualization of how we see and relate to our world. The shift from experiencing life as random content to that of being the CONTEXT of experience itself is shattering, illuminating and empowering.
