Instead, it's about upholding seven key principles founded on shared moral values that encourage goodwill toward all people of the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Seven Principles are simple enough on their own, but figuring out how to apply them in real situations isn't always easy-and that's where this collection of candid essays comes in. The twenty-one contributors (all members of the First Universalist Church of Denver) share their personal experiences applying the principles in their daily lives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book includes thoughtful reflections from Unitarian Universalists representing a variety of backgrounds and religious traditions. A clinical psychologist discusses the principle that calls for working toward justice, equity, and compassion in human relations. A former NASA researcher writes about the principle that calls for undertaking a free and responsible search for truth and meaning. A labor lawyer considers the goal of a world community with universal peace, liberty, and justice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWithout judgment or preaching, these writers show how the Seven Principles can help us transform ourselves and the people around us. In the process, we can defeat adversity and create a better world. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Createspace Independent Publishing Platform","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45504797245591,"sku":"9781518823848","price":1321.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781518823848.webp?v=1767108732","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/principles-matter-personal-explorations-9781518823848","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
