What Do You Believe? from The Science of Mind Magazine
Below are some excerpts In 1926, Ernest Holmes was asked to write about what he believed, and it was published in the Science of Mind magazine. Later it was adopted as a statement of “What We Believe” to help define and describe the answers to this question. Since humanity started searching for meaning and purpose in life, we have asked the same questions: Where do we come from? Where does everything come from? How did it get here? Is there something behind it, creating and managing it? And maybe most importantly, what is the point of all of this? What is the point of my life?
So, what do we believe and where do we start? Well, we can start in the same place that religion, philosophy and science do: Where does it all come from? Science of Mind teaches that life is unified whole. There isn’t a part of life one place and the rest of it someplace else. This means Science of Mind solidly falls into the philosophical understanding that everything comes from and is an expression of the One. That means everything in the physical universe, the tangible space/time continuum, is part of this Wholeness, comes from It and is made out of It. We generally use the words oneness or unity to capture this idea. But that doesn’t answer the next question, “Why?” Why is there anything or everything? This causes us to dive more deeply into our understanding of the nature of reality. If It is all One, then the fish, stars, photons, and you are all individualized expression, all ways through which the One is expressing and experiencing Itself. Spirit has become creation by making creation out of Itself. And isn’t that the best definition of love?We truly give ourselves–hopefully our best selves–to those people and things we really love? This is exactly what the One is doing–giving Itself into, through and as creation. And that is all creation, including you. Spirit’s desire to give Itself into expression is the impulse behind creation. So Love is the impulse behind all creation, and that makes creation good, blessed, joy-filled and the genuine expression of love. “How does the impulse of love make creation? is another way of asking, “How is creation created?” Did some random act of atoms clumping together form little balls of matter and start whirling around in the sky? What’s it all about? Are we trying to get out of the suffering on Earth? Do we feel that the things of physical life aren’t really sacred or spiritual, so we seek to transcend, rise above or leave it all behind?
Science of Mind emphasize the three aspects of the nature of reality (Spirit, Law, and Body), its spiritual laws and how the creative process works. Because we believe that as expressions of this one spiritual reality, we are here to create our lives and co-create the ongoing emerging evolution of humanity into our spiritual magnificence.
This is a radically different notion than believing we have to find God, connect with God, build a relationship with God or even try to be one with God. We are already one with all that is. No wonder this is sometimes hard to talk about.
I thinking of the most exciting things to share about Science of Mind is that we believe we are spiritual beings having a human experience and that we are free to use the creative process to create heaven (or hell) right here on Earth.
We believe we are already immortal and that our lives grow and expand eternally. Some of these ideas are so different from what others are familiar with, they can be challenging to explain, especially if you are trying to answer questions coming from someone else’s faith, using words based on their scriptures and sets of beliefs. Yet just like us, there are many who respond to these ideas with a deep resonance and instant recognition.
To deepen our understanding and ability to share what we believe, I will be sending the principles of Science of Mind basic ideas of the theory and philosophy of this teaching. in another e mail.
