Our Organizational Policies

The Administrative Policies of Universe Spirit

All of Universe Spirit's administrative space qualities are created, achieved and improved though the process of inclusion, synthesis and transcendence. They are intended to spiritually empower the accomplishment of our mission, each step of the adventurous journey and the process of getting there. Similar to our spiritual space qualities and principles, these qualities are also applicable to improving the individual lives of our members.

In reflecting both the essence of the highest spiritual truth and science, we have selected the administrative systems based on what type of post-postmodern administrative and ecclesiastical structure would best support our mission and our spiritual space concepts. Consequently, Universe Spirit will not look like the organizational or ecclesiastical structures of any other religious or spiritual groups created centuries, millenniums ago or created within the last several decades.

This is because the organizational and ecclesiastical structures of past religions had to significantly evolve to a new level before this new spiritual expression and movement could manifest adequately or hope to achieve its spiritual mission. Even though we will look radically different administratively and ecclesiastically from other religions that were born long ago, at its essence and in its focus, Universe Spirit is and does what every authentic religion is supposed to be and do. We intend that these fluid administrative and spiritual space qualities will help us create the necessary new type of spiritual vehicle for post-postmodern consciousness, the challenges of the 21st century and for the rest of the third millennium.

Administrative Qualities

a.) Facilitating: We intend to help people of diverse personality types, denominations, developmental or consciousness perspectives, cultures, ethnicities or isms to work co-creatively and collaboratively toward achieving their personal spiritual goals, our spiritual community’s mission and a sustainable and equitable world. Reflecting the Infinite’s respect for our free will and experiencing of consequences, we too respect individual free will and do not interfere with each individual working out their own choices and the consequences of their or their group’s choices.

b.) Collaborative: We intend to be a place of openness, shared spiritual intention and attention, trust, authentic listening, speaking and participating from our experiences, intimacy, vulnerability, knowing and where one can suspend strongly held ideas and look beyond personal preconceptions to enable the process of true learning and gaining new insights.

c.) Self-organizing: We operate on many of the principles of systems theory, particularly that of self organizing systems i.e. those who show up are the "right" persons for the work. We promote bottom up created and managed solutions. Our volunteers have self-empowering freedom and autonomy in selecting and managing (self organizing) their own projects and resources.

d.) Interdependent: We actively foster inter-dependence between independent individuals and organizations.

e.) Balanced: We intend to create an enlightened win, win, win balance where individual, community and environmental interests are mutually forwarded, balanced and upheld.

f.) Cooperative and Co-creative: We intend to be cooperative and co-creative with all organizations and individuals with compatible missions. As a non-profit organization we do not compete with anyone.

g.) Diversity Honoring: Because the Infinite loves novelty and diversity, we are committed to utilizing the life affirming information from a multiplicity of cultural, ethnic, racial, spiritual and scientific perspectives to evolve and build our organization and attract co-creators from all walks of life. To create a new integrative spirituality, many spiritual and non-spiritual perspectives are woven into a fabric that still maintains its distinct, diverse individual visible textures and colors. We see diversity as both essential to better more inclusive solutions, complementary strength and creative opportunity.

h.) Safe: We maintain an environment where all people can feel safe spiritually, socially and physically. One of our sub-goals is to help build many co-operative spiritual mini-cultures that will support individuals living their spiritual values in a competitive materialistic world, which regularly ignores spiritual values for ease, comfort, profit or power. The concept of building a safe space also means that we set only those minimum healthy boundaries and policies necessary to protect our open and progressive spiritual community from unhealthy, unethical or secular practices of individuals, businesses or organizations who would unfairly or harmfully exploit our members, mission and open community. To help us do this we will use established validity tests, safeguards and healthy boundaries that have been repeatedly found in the most mature and enlightened spiritual communities throughout history.

i.) Appropriate, practical solution focused: We seek to create organizational solutions that are integral, sufficient, scalable, practical and non-authoritarian.

j.) Internet centered: Our multi-language website is our first sacred temple and center to serve our global membership 24 hours a day seven days a week. This web site allows all members free access to all of our education materials whenever and wherever they are needed.

k.) Non-Adversarial: We have no adversaries. We work toward reducing ignorance and inappropriate or disproportionate fear.

l.) Integral: We are an organization birthed in the age of integralism. This means all our spiritual doctrine, beliefs, ceremonies, administration, practices, ministerial training and other spiritual aspects and services of our organization should first reflect an integral, quality of being vs. survival focus. We operate from a "both and" perspective, not an either or view. We intend to include and synthesize the life affirming spiritual wisdom and processes we encounter and if it occurs as part of the natural process transcend previous spiritual wisdom.

m.) Universal: We are an ecumenical, global and universal spiritual movement. We promote integral interfaith activities that enhance understanding, tolerance and unity among all religions and individuals.

n.) Flow State: Authority and resources flow to where they are natural or needed within our organization and in forwarding our mission. Flow usually exists as a relative dynamic balance created from continuous adjustments to exterior evolutionary stress and/or internal tensions.

o.) "Quality of Being" Focused: As an organization we make internal decisions from both a "quality of spiritual being" and a quality of physical existence focus vs. a solitary physical survival focus.

p.) Healthy Boundaries: We strive to set only the flexible, healthy and the most minimal boundaries necessary to maintain the quality our spiritual space and achieve our mission. These boundaries will be derived from established or historic spiritual and social "community validity tests" or safeguards that are also relevant to the conditions of the current situation.

q.) Neutral Space: We are a neutral, nondenominational space and sanctuary where all authentic spiritual expressions from all developmental perspectives, cultures, or personality styles found within the spiral of life can co-exist and feel comfortable in a global spiritual community, operating on universal spiritual values. In our sanctuary, for the diversity of spiritual expression no one expression may dominate, claim final authority or attempt to inappropriately diminish another.

r.) Competent, Productive, Responsible and Ethical: Those who work in our organization as paid staff, steward the financial support the organization receives to the highest standards of efficiency. They demonstrate and uphold both personally and with their peers the highest standards of work competence, productivity, responsibility and integrity and view their service to our spiritual community as both an honor and privilege.

s.) Prepared: We intend to always be prepared to deal with the consequences of any reasonable negative possibility, yet once so prepared we will act as if we "forget" about such preparations and focus entirely upon creating realistic solutions to the negative possibility. In other words, once we have prepared for the worst we work for the best.

t.) Physically and Mentally Healthy: We believe we are responsible as individuals to use the best of science to improve or maintain our mental and physical health. We support a culture for our staff and members that embraces vigorous preventive healthcare and peak wellness strategies of good nutrition, exercise and stress management. We believe that if people are properly nourished, exercise and reduce their stress with both exercise, or other stress management techniques, many of the ailments they are suffering from would either be dramatically improved or eliminated altogether. From this improved personal bio-chemistry their energy levels would rise. Any cyclical up and down and often troublesome moods would significantly lessen and their general attitudes would improve.

When all this happens they would be physically more stable and bio-chemically better supported to make more spiritually enlightened choices and be more productive. From this their world would improve and everyone else's world would improve a little too. Care of the body through good health practices and proper bio-chemical balance is essential to supporting better spiritual choices and that better spiritual choices is one of the most effective and powerful levers to improve and sustain our world.

u.) Non Personality Focused: We believe that the sharing of service to achieve our mission is important and as Gandhi said, there is no limit to the amount of good you can do in the world if you are willing to do it anonymously. The many personalities of our organization will be given no inappropriate or special attention or considerations. They have chosen the personal joys of humble service as spiritual equals. While we will gladly accept the help of anyone, we will also give no inappropriate or special attention, position or consideration to any member or visitor primarily because they are personalities of wealth, fame, power, specialized influence or celebrity. Ours is a space of souls and hearts sharing in equal spiritual dignity where individuals want to work with us because that is what they know they should be doing and, that is precisely what is naturally overflowing out of them to do!
