The Dawn of Souls 1

1. Souls are the unique identity of every human being.
2. Each Soul is unique and at the same time equal to all others.
3. This identity is sealed for eternity and can be altered only in the course of experience and then only in terms that are consistent with the Soul’s essence.
4. Souls exist in Heaven and in life as beings. Their equality is the same wherever they may be.
5. Each life is a fragment of Soulhood. Life’s purpose is entirely the purpose chosen freely by a Soul. Each life is reviewed in Heaven and affects the rank of an individual Soul on a scale related to personal attainment.
6. Rank is completely irrelevant to the equality of all Souls. It is a measure of chosen attainments which are related to universal values which are reflected in all choices made by every Soul.
7. All souls are endowed with a gift which is a personal piece of the One we call by such names as Creator, Source, Force, Holy One or One. This is an actual part of every Soul.

1. The names of the Source convey important realities that invite our attention.
2. It is real to say that the Universe is entirely the creation of the One of whom each Soul is a part.
3. It is proper to infer that this One can be seen as a Universal Spirit, Mind or Energy who is beyond the reach of any religion or spiritual enterprise.
4. It is proper to infer that each Soul has a personal relationship with this One, mediated through personal contact via shared Consciousness.
5. The essentials of Spirituality are learned through communion with other Souls who base their understanding on simple principles.
6. Individual reverence based on meditation and appropriate communications is the essential necessity for one who consciously wills to relate to the Universal Spirit.
7. Virtually all development of Spirituality rises from understandings based on unconditional love.
8. Unconditional love is a positive disposition to self and others. It does not judge. It does not moralize. It is accepting. It strives for balance. It affirms justice. It is compassionate and empathetic.
9. The reality as presented here need only be accepted by the individual Soul. It suffices to embrace the presuppositions of Soulhood and start to live a life that manifests unconditional love.
