You only have room for ONE core value.

Whether you realize it or not, there is one value that you hold most sacred, which gives you context for adapting other values in a variety of circumstances, in varying degrees, in a variety of ways. That pinpoint of your True North is what holds all of your functioning together.

Choose it wisely.

For most people, this core value is desperately unconscious and based in the material realm of existence.

Matter is only one small portion of reality, however. It must be accounted for by something greater – an energy which is so great, that it allows all of us, and all other beings, the privilege to exist at all.

In most mystical traditions of the past, this is what is referred to as God. This may work for some, but its core error – holding to a strict, personified conception of God – also causes adverse effects.

God is conscious, sure, but it is more accurate to say that God is consciousness per se. We aren’t God in a material sense. That is to miss the point entirely!

Why not simply say God is? The question of why or how we exist only comes up because there is an immaterial – divine – aspect to us.

Call it whatever you want: God, Is, One, Being, Mind, Self, Consciousness, Nature, Creator, Creation, Truth, Beauty, Goodness, Love…

The list goes on.

Whatever you call it, it is the positive energy force of, by, and for all things. It has no opposite. It cannot be compared, compromised, or fully fathomed.

And so should your ONE core value be, not just for living by any sense of correctness, but for maintaining the humility and inspiration necessary for growth, expansion, and finding true peace.
