Credo - Romain Rolland and Edmond Bordeaux Szekely

We believe that our most precious possession is Life.
We believe we shall mobilize all the forces of Life against the forces of death.
We believe that mutual understanding leads toward mutual cooperation:
        that mutual cooperation leads toward Peace;
        and that Peace is the only way of survival for mankind.
We believe that we shall preserve instead of waste our natural resources,
        which are the heritage of our children.
We believe that we shall avoid pollution of our air, water, and soil,
        the basic preconditions of life.
We believe we shall preserve the vegetation of our planet:
        the humble grass which came fifty million years ago,
        and the majestic trees which came twenty million years ago,
        to prepare our planet for mankind.
We believe we shall eat only fresh, natural, pure, whole foods,
        without chemicals and artificial processing.
We believe we shall live a simple, natural, creative life,
        absorbing all the sources of energy, harmony and knowledge, in and around us.
We believe that the improvement of life and mankind on our planet
        must start with individual efforts, as the whole depends on the atoms composing it.
We believe in
        the Fatherhood of God,
        the Motherhood of Nature,
        and the Brotherhood of Man.
