Core Principles
God is one – one universal Father/Mother, the Creator and Organizer of the universe, the most radiant Being of Light, the Center of all love and compassion.
No one is God but God; all spiritual teachers have been and always will be our brothers and sisters. But there is a spark of God in each of us, as God is the Creator of our eternal spirits.
God’s love is unconditional, and one of the many manifestations of such love is the gift of eternal life, with as many Earthly incarnations as necessary for one’s development toward ever-greater unity with God. Thus, we will always have a chance to evolve spiritually, to atone for transgressions, and to receive forgiveness from each other as well as from God.
We are all God’s children, of equal value in God’s eyes. Let us therefore lay down our arms and forever live as the brothers and sisters we have always been! It is within our innermost nature to love and honor each other as ourselves – and therefore to create lasting peace on Earth. Let the music we create and send out into the world be a true reflection of God and of our innermost selves. And may we strive, through our music and in our daily lives, to radiate unconditional love, infinite compassion, great beauty, and profound peace.

ONE UNIVERSAL FAITH:
Toward a world with no conversions, banishments or excommunications - and with a lasting peace that will result from the emergence of one universal faith for all, based upon a global awareness of God’s unconditional and eternal love for all human beings, regardless of which lifetime one may be in or what one’s personal situation may be…
Imagine a world in which no one ever converted, but rather grew spiritually within our universal, fundamental brotherhood and sisterhood. After all, are we not all children of God? Then let us start living that way on Earth, no matter in which lifetime we may be, no matter what we may have said or done at any time, no matter for which transgressions we may yet need forgiveness! Peace starts now; every step counts. Lasting peace, though, can only be created out of a global consciousness of tolerance and compassion ‐ which comes from fully embracing our universal and eternal spiritual kinship. When all human beings on Earth will have attained such consciousness, there will be no more divisions based on religion – and the concept of religion itself will be a thing of the past, since it will be a way of life for each of us to live in constant relationship to God, whom we will all know as our universal Father/Mother, the source of unconditional love, perfect justice, and infinite compassion. The idea of separate religions will eventually be relegated to the dustbin of history. Unity of spirit will prevail, and an inviolable and lasting peace will be ever‐present for the remainder of humanity’s time on Earth!
In the words of a lullaby I wrote a few years ago:
“Let there be peace every day,
Let there be love every day,
Let there be compassion every day,
Let there be forgiveness every day.”
