Virtues

Virtues are the qualities of goodness that define the very purpose of our lives, the content of our character and the truest expression of our spiritual-energetic nature. Virtues are qualities of goodness which inhabit in the world of forces, as a “spiritual force”. When one builds strength in virtue, one builds strength in the power of our goodness which translates into the power of God Force. We reap the quality of our cultivated virtue in that which brings incredible gifts directly from the God spirit. These gifts are referred to as the “Bestowal of Grace” which is received through the sincerity of one’s virtuous thoughts or virtuous actions. It is made clear to define that the Bestowal of Grace is not dispensed through a premeditated intermediary, such as in a Guru or Priest, but is received as dispensation of grace from the personal cultivation of virtues. To strengthen our spiritual foundation at its root in our personal Tree of Life, we must place our relationship to God as primary and find the courage every day to cultivate virtues.

'''A virtue is a characteristic of a person which supports the development of individual goodness for the purpose of personal and collective humanitarian wellbeing. This is a person who chooses to promote principles of love and goodness while giving their best every day with whatever they have in the moment. '''

If one focuses on building strong virtues these behaviors lead to personal freedom. If one is allowing strong vices to control them, this leads to personal bondage. This is our choice, to have freedom or bondage through the choices we make every day to cultivate virtues.

When we are spiritually strong, we are a fortress of heart based devotion and dedication to serve the highest expression of our goodness as a spiritual being. This heart based devotion progressively builds solid ethics and strong virtues which are the collective attributes that directly attract the Spirits of Christos.

Krystic Qualities
Here in ES we are exploring how we each can make productive movements forward within ourselves to develop Krystic qualities and virtues and expand those qualities within all of the relationships we are interconnected and interacting. In studying the Law of One Practices, the Relationship Mastery Guidelines, 12 Practices of Self Awareness and GSF Behaviors one will find the key notes of these qualities and how one develops solid virtue. This helps us establish patterns to which we can learn to develop more skill with compassionate communication, discerning ego judgments from exercising personal choice and discernment, and learning how to create more enjoyable relationships that are productive and harmonious. When we expand goodness around us, we receive the goodness returned back to us from our own virtuous actions and thoughts.

This life philosophy is met with focused intentions to express communication and behaviors with an open heart which is congruent with these VALUES:


 * Open-Hearted Living
 * Self-compassion
 * Expressing from the heart
 * Receiving with compassion
 * Prioritizing connection
 * Moving beyond "right" and "wrong" to using needs-based assessments
 * Choice, Responsibility, Peace
 * Taking responsibility for our feelings
 * Taking responsibility for our actions
 * Living in peace with unmet needs ( acceptance)Increasing capacity for meeting needs
 * Increasing capacity for meeting the present moment
 * Sharing Power and Resources (Partnership)
 * Caring equally for everyone’s needs ( Group consciousness)
 * Using force minimally and to protect (defend) rather than to superimpose beliefs, punish, or get what we want without mutual agreement

Krystic qualities have also been described in the GSF Behaviors from the ES Guardian Perspective, as the antidote to AD ego behavior resulting from mind control programming and lack of knowledge and self-awareness.
