Our Spiritual Responsibility
Description
Unity celebrates the presence of God, or Spirit, inherent in all life. We believe in the power of our mind to manifest the deepest desires of our heart. Our Unity philosophy states that we are responsible for the quality of our own lives. While this may sound empowering, it also has a downside. If we're not careful, we can take on too much responsibility and end up frustrated and defeated if we don't manifest a "successful" outcome.
However, we cannot take responsibility for everything that happens in our lives. Even the greatest of spiritual masters have endured times of great challenge. This is not because they weren't good enough or evolved enough, but because challenges are a part of life.
As we gain greater self-knowledge we can learn to observe our tendencies toward excessive guilt or self-blame and not judge ourselves or others too harshly.
