Our Mission Statement

Posted by DrShaler on February 13, 2011 Add comments

Every one of the major spiritual traditions and religions of the world embraces the universal truth of The Golden Rule which generally tells us to play nicely together. At Sow Peace™ International, our sister site, we express this as: “Give only what you are willing to receive from others.”

You can read statements from many religions here.

In 1984, Dr.Rhoberta Shaler, founder of Spiritual Living Network™ and Sow Peace™ International, read these selections from the major world spiritual traditions, philosophers and religions and had the thought:

“What if every person in the world who claims one of these paths as their truth were to practice just that one tenet…all in the same time frame of three months? It would have an astonishing effect on harmony and peace in the world?”

The Spiritual Living Network™ was a seed. Throughout the years, Dr. Shaler has talked about this vision with hundreds of people and her books on optimal living have been published in nine languages.

NOW IS THE TIME!

The overall mission of the Spiritual Living Network™ is to educate, encourage and empower people worldwide to live the spiritual principles they say they accept, understand and believe.

Spiritual Living Blog is only one benefit of being a member of Spiritual Living Network, social networking for spiritually-minded people.

As a member of Spiritual Living Network, you are part of a global community of people like you who are intent and focused on living the spiritual principles they believe in every relationship--within themselves, at home, at work and in the community. What could be better!

JOIN TODAY! It's free.

The global mission is to invite every person who accepts the truth of The Golden Rule to embody it with every thought, word and action during the Season to Sow Peace™ which we sponsor annually from September 1 to November 30. In her view, non-violence is a wonderful space of neutrality and a very important step. Then, we must take the next active step, to sow peace purposefully. During the Season to Sow Peace, programs will be offered every day for that period by phone, email and onsite to inspire, motivate and activate the moment-to-moment practice of spiritual principles.

Be sure to subscribe to the Spiritual Living Digest to stay attuned to and become a part of this mission. We welcome you as a companion on this journey with us.
