The tremendous tragedy that occurred at the Twin Towers in New York City on September 11, 2001 highlighted the perceptual Tower of Babel that permeates the globe today in regard to Spiritual Pathways. Liberty Enlightening the World (shown in the picture below) was chosen as the mission symbol for Blessings Cornucopia. The Lady Liberty "Beacon of Freedom" was presented as a gift from France to commemorate the Centennial of the signing of the American Declaration of Independence. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, ocean journeying immigrants, returning Americans and visitors were all greeted by the Statue of Liberty when their ships entered the harbor. As a planet, we need to move beyond merely tolerating Spiritual Pathways that are perceived as being different from our own, towards building a global rainbow bridge of Commitment, Commonality, Communication, Communion and Community that connects all of our consciousnesses and hearts together. Many rivers flow towards the universal seas carrying our personal soul ships ever closer towards union with the Divine. In Beliefs Spirituality the articles focus on the practices and principles of the Aboriginal Australia, Alchemy, Buddhism, Christianity, Daoism Confucian, Druidry, Heathenry, Hinduism, Islam, Judaism, Native American, Paganism Wicca, Shamanism and Shintoism Kami Spiritual Pathways.
Our search for As Above so Below, for Eternal Divine Goodness, for Heaven on Earth, for Impeccable Fundamental Truths and for Unity amidst Diversity is the central unifying thread that links together all our beliefs, our faiths, our religions, our philosophies and our spirituality. Celebrations, ceremonies, festivals, practices, principles and rituals fulfill community and personal needs for erudite edification, for ethical guidelines, for fulfilling worship, for sanctified blessings and for spiritual sustenance. The first step towards appreciating different Spiritual Pathways is to understand their ritualistic practices, sacred terminology, spiritual landscapes, symbology and traditions. Common themes are prevalent throughout most of the Spiritual Pathways. They are just expressed differently in different terms. Many colors make up a rainbow. Each color is special and different from the others; yet, its core essence is still that of a color; and, it is still one of the many colors that make up a rainbow.
Each Spiritual Pathway is treated
with the dignity, honor and respect that it deserves. On all the pages of the articles, at least one
relevant image was selected to further enhance understanding of the written
words. These pictures were for the most part centered in the body of the text on
the page. All of the images selected illustrated some significant corresponding aspect of the
pertinent information being conveyed in each of the numerous articles.
