People Embracing Change (PEC)
PEC is a Tribe. It is about creating a working community with diverse Spiritual Societies, Clans of Families, people with common values and goals. As a tribe we can build community and a social model, that has been lost in our day and age.
The 60s seeds of transformation within society were sown. These seeds germinated which resulted in several positive accomplishments, including greater equality for women and an end to segregation. Change did not continue, however, and stasis has resulted.
Society has fragmented into isolated groups that ignore a wealth of diversity in ages and experience. People trust only their peer groups. Isolation and convenient excuses to see things from a narrow perspective are perpetuated. This is unsophisticated and unhealthy. We are vulnerable to those in power of media manipulating society.
Religion and society have lost focus, as these institutions expect things to stay the same and fail to adjust to reality. It is easier to create convenient rationalizations to avoid truth. People look to their leaders for direction, who in turn, merely fall back on their tradition. Choices, behaviors and ways of doing things rarely change as a result. Stagnation continues. Link to a paper on a Pagan Perspective of needing Tribes.
People Effecting Change
We refuse to accept the status quo. Our mission is to restart the process of transformation. We recognize and embrace that change within society is desirable and mandatory for growth as individuals and as a community. We achieve these goals through a variety of avenues.
Prepare an Emergent Culture.
We choose to live consciously. This is normal for any esoteric training. Esoteric (the hidden) must be exoteric (open and transparent). It is learning to be a conscious, true or authentic individual. Those terms are used amongst many spiritual and esoteric communities around the world.
Pursue Excellence in Character.
Spirituality is a part of our everyday life. We refuse to live in isolation. We share how we think, why we think, and how to be aware of our choices in interactions with others. This promotes a social culture of thinking. We choose to act in a way to be a positive example to each other and society.
A Pan Ecumenical Church
We are Ecumenical. Every belief system and esoteric tradition has valuable thoughts, ideas and philosophies that help people live every day, spiritually, ethically and secularly. This is like a church, which is a community that embraces spiritual, mundane and everyday cultural values that help the community, the family and the individual.
Pagan Elders Contributions
The current core set of Elders combined have over 100 years of study and experience in various spiritual traditions. Currently, there are experienced individuals in Wicca, Druidism, East African, Shamanism, Native American beliefs, thaumaturgy, yoga, Tai Chi, and other comparative practices and religions from around the world.
We share what we know with each other. We value each other’s perceptions. We take time to understand where the other person is coming from. We enjoy people being themselves and who are being good thinking caring people.
Pan Esoteric Clergy
Our Sabbats, or traditional Pagan seasonal holidays, are spiritual; however, they are designed to include secular individuals. We have asked each other for spiritual help, pastoral counseling, and sanity checks.
People Evolving Consciousness
As adults, we do not live to grow old. We live to experience and be alive. We give each other the freedom to grow, change and live. We let each other relax and be themselves. This is all about being responsible to the people we care about and the family that supports us. It is important that we make each other feel safe. We support each other to grow, to find ourselves, and importantly be our own authentic and true persons.
Purposeful Evolution of Community
All of the Elders are available for teaching, as they are able and we all learn from each other. We all are responsible to learn from each other. We are responsible for learning the truth of things. Understand the context and the limits of information, learn and verify. We expect each of us to grow in personal power and grow their personal responsibility.
Practicing Ethical Conscious Living
We understand, are part of and support the ethical living of alternate lifestyles. We believe in the ability to choose responsibly how we want to live. Likewise, we respect those who choose to be responsible. We are a clan and chosen family who embrace change at all levels.
PEC is positively evolving and changing.
Each person is required to personally evolve and change. They are to grow themselves and the community.
We all are the Creator’s Children.
This requires commitment to create this into reality.
This requires work.
We are to have our Body, Mind and Emotions in Balance to create Spirit. We are to have Life, Love and Truth in Harmony to create Integrity. Integrity and Spirit create Soul. We encourage the cultivation of our own souls.
We are to live absolutely honestly with absolutely everything, including ourselves, the world and the universe.
