1) WHOLENESS
All things are interrelated.Everything in the Universe is part of a single
whole. Everything is connected in some way to everything else. It is only
possible to understand something if we understand how it is connected to
everything else.
2) CHANGE
Everything is in a state of constant change. One season falls upon the other
People are born, and die. All things change. There are two kinds of change.
The coming together of things and the coming apart of things. Both kinds of
change are necessary and are always connected to each other.
3) CHANGE OCCURS IN CYCLES OR PATTERNS
They are not random or accidential. If we cannot see how a particular change
is connected, it usually means that our standpoint is affecting our
perfection.
4) THE PHYSICAL WORLD IS REAL - THE SPIRITUAL WORLD IS REAL
They are two aspecets of one reality. There are seperate laws which govern
each. Breaking of a spiritual principle will affect the pgysical world and
visa versa. A balanced life is one that honors both.
