l believe that some of my principles are that I believe in God as the highest power on earth. And when I say God I dont mean a white man with a beard that religions have drawn for us. God could be the universe encompassing nature and all that it offers. I believe that there is a bigger force that wants us to improve and wants us to truly be happy and not let the images and physical things control, define or tell us who we are to be.
I got these beliefs from my own life experience till now. To be honest with you I have learned what not to be like from my family that has been their biggest contribution to my life. Life itself has been and continues to be my teacher. I like to believe that God teaches us through our life experiences which for me has been the beat way not through others but by doing it myself even when I dont want that experience I know that it happened because it needs to teach me something, that I must find out learn and move on.
Our readings have confirmed that most of things I feel are right like there is a higher power and that we learn from it, also that all this material shit that people go crazy for is just that. Useful crap like tv (most of it), celebrities, and things that keep you from becoming and doing what are meant to be doing... like grow. Aside form confirmation they have also inspired to question. Question myself, my established beliefs, in some cases making them stronger and in others helping me seek for more answers and knowledge of the known and unknown.
The principle that I am drawn to the most is the Taoist principle. To I just get it and it sits well inside. It was very pure and human to me, something that I think our technology and society are working on killing the humanness of us. Everything now has to be bigger, faster, you "need" to have this NOW, you "need" this to be happy, there ten more people better ten you so you need take them down to get what want, life is hard, and so on. This principle is against all that and that what I love about it. It will make any human much stronger then what they are at the present moment.
