Tribute and its Tenets
HERE
- Inner work is a moment-to-moment, day-after-day, year-after-year, lifelong commitment and process.
- When I genuinely do my inner work, denied parts of myself reveal themselves for purposes of integration and purification.
- While engaging in my inner work, I invite my higher consciousness to aid me.
- The fruits of my inner work are reflected in the quality of my inner state and manifest in the world through selfless service.
- Inner work is psychological and spiritual in nature; meditation, contemplation, and self-inquiry facilitate my process.
- I cannot have compassion for another without first having compassion for myself; consciously striving to have compassion for others strengthens having compassion for myself.
- To be compassionate means to observe, but not identify with, the suffering of myself and others.
- Compassion and truth are two major spiritual gifts I offer to those I serve.
