The Seven Beliefs of AMSWAY |
|
AMSWAY has only Seven Beliefs Which Harmonize With the Two Propositions.
All other writings of AMSWAY are thoughts on
understanding and living these seven beliefs
in our daily life.
1.
I BELIEVE
in an Infinite, Omnipresent God.
An Intelligence that is everywhere and all places.
God is present wherever I am,
and is also waiting for me
when I get to the place
I am going.
God hears through all who hear.
God sees through all who see.
God feels through all who feel.
God smells through all who smell.
God thinks through all who think.
God loves through all who love.
God is Self-aware through all creation.
2.
I BELIEVE
if I want a cherry tree, I must plant cherry seeds.
I must give to the universe exactly
what I wish to receive from the universe.
I have no right to expect from the universe
what I am not willing to plant first.
I must treat all of creation
as I
want
all of creation to treat me.
3.
I BELIEVE
in the continuation of my awareness
of
existing in the universe after my body dies.
This is a continuation of my awareness of being aware.
It is not a continuation of my human-body-identity awareness.
4.
I BELIEVE
I am here for the contribution
I can make to the rest of creation.
All of creation exists for the part
each
has to play in the symphony of the universe.
5.
I BELIEVE
I am here to learn how to be
a better contributor to the rest of creation.
My spiritual education comes from my experiences
and my thoughts about my experiences.
If I stub my toe, I learn to watch where I place my feet.
God does not punish - God educates.
6.
I BELIEVE
my appreciation of two great incredibles
is the key to paradise.
The first great incredible is
THE EXISTENCE -- OF ANYTHING AT ALL.
The second great incredible
is
MY AWARENESS -- OF ANYTHING AT ALL.
Whenever I appreciate these two great incredibles,
Everyday experience becomes divine experience.
Every breath I take
Every step I make
Every thought I think
Every drink I drink
IS INCREDIBLE
7.
THE GREATEST COMMANDMENT
Love God With All My Heart
Truly appreciate my awareness of being aware
and my love of God will be my very being.
Every act I make will be an act of worship.
PRAISE GOD
That is it.
Very simple. |
