I am a self-organizing bundle of particles in a sea of particles.

​

Imagine the following, if you will.  Hold a snow globe in your hand, shake it up, and then set it down on a table. See its particles swirling around inside.  Now, imagine that you are inside the snow globe, standing in the middle, surrounded by particles.

 

Imagine that you begin to dissolve, like an Alka-Seltzer, made of gold particles. As you dissolve, your particles mix-in with the other ones. Eventually you're so dispersed within them, you're one with them. You can touch them, feel them, bond with them, or pass through them and vice versa.  Now imagine that our universe is a snow globe filled with a sea of swirling particles. Science calls this celestial sea of particles the Quantum Field or "the field" for short. And we're in it. One can choose to dissolve into it and commune with it, or not.  Either way, it is constantly flowing through you.

​

Science is now able to see that our bodies are being penetrated by a quadrillion invisible particles per second, as we speak. ​​

​

They flow through our skin, bones, brains, hearts, and every cell in our bodies, and then they exit, and new particles flow through us. They flow through the room in which you sit, the building in which you dwell, your neighborhood, your city, the whole planet and the entire universe. There is no separation between you and the field. You can greet it, recognize it, and, if you choose to, develop a relationship with it. Many thank it for the fact that we are never alone.  Some share their intentions and desires with it as a means of manifesting their wishes. Others ask it to carry blessings to loved ones. Try it, if you choose, and see what happens. The field is like a form of wi-fi to which we are constantly connected. An open source concept that is yours to commune with as you will. Some people call the field God, Creator, Source, The Force etc.

​

For simplicity sake we call the field God.  Because God is everything and therefore everything is made of God, in some manner or other, which may or may not be known to us. We also recognize the fact that the word "God" is a loaded word. Therefore, we begin our Scicred explorations with the following prayer. “God, please help us remove any baggage that we have placed on your name, so that we may start anew and share a flawless relationship with you. Thank you, and all that you are.” 

​

If God is the source of everything that exists, then it seems that God is everyone's parent. If you are a parent of multiple children, then you are aware of the fact that it's impossible to have the same relationship with any two of them. In fact, the relationships you share with your children are as distinct as their fingerprints and yours. That same logic applies to God's relationship with each of us. It's just for you. It's yours and yours alone. Make of it what you will. If you choose to.

Our Firmly Held Beliefs

​

At Chirch, we believe that language is a constantly evolving art form and we are the artists who shape it.  Thus, we have the right to define God, and ourselves, with language that currently exists, or with language yet to be created.

 

As unprecedented issues arise in the world, the development of new, expanded language, with which to address new issues will be needed. New language can be constructed and conveyed in any form we choose, including lexicography, iconography, oral, musical, movement-based, other formats to be determined, and/or combinations of the forgoing -- including silence.  As we innovate language, and apply it to our theosophy, it shapes our firmly held beliefs. A partial list of additional firmly held beliefs follows.

​

We Firmly Believe That:

​

-all matter is alive, as evidenced by the mere fact that it exists and is part of life.

 

-the word “God” can be interchangeable with other words including but not limited to “Life” and “Source” but it's not necessary to name God unless you choose to.

 

-individuals have the federally protected religious right to be LGBTQ+.

 

-all individuals have the right to marriage equality.

 

-individuals have the right to speak their truth.

 

-individuals have the right to own their ideas.

​

-individuals have the right to protect themselves from harm.

 

-Chirch has the right to expand, edit, add to, share, and distribute its firmly held
beliefs in any manner it chooses.
