A Sacred
Cooperative
Community

A true conversation with God takes the shape of all that appears.

Restoring the Sacred Domain as the basis for human life

The sacred cooperative community creates a life-affirming sphere in which the reduction of humanity to mere objectified existence is transcended. These two disciplines stand at the core of our practice:

Persist as Love

Persist as Love is the practice of remaining open and receptive in heart, body, and mind towards all beings in all circumstances. The discipline is one of the transcendence of differences, through forgiveness. We dare to relate with one another through the defenseless and vulnerable wound of the heart. This manifests as an ever-increasing awareness of our intimacy or relationship with everything, a deepening awareness of the illusion of “other” and ultimately, a direct perception of the Unity of all creation.

Life as Art

As human beings we have a deep longing for beauty and meaning. Life as Art is our commitment to create human balance in the world again. Source Temple is founded upon active service to others. We cooperatively share our functions and resources, allowing all aspects of daily life to be a whole expression of one’s life energy and a total dedication to the common Source. Our model has matured over time, becoming a clear demonstration of a way of being that is mutually dependent, responsive, liberating, and peaceful.

The true test and proof of a human being is not whether or not he or she can attain mystical experiences, or even sophisticated scientific knowledge and power over the world. The true test is whether or not any individual human being will exist as love and persist as love, transcending himself or herself in the midst of all experience and all knowledge, even when all experience and all knowledge press upon the individual to be less than love.”
