SpiriLogic Fundamentals and appliance in real world...

 

People often ask us: what kind of religion are you? Are you a sect? (Maybe because the name ‘SpiriLogic’ sounds a bit like ‘Scientology’). The simple answer is: no, we are not a religion. We do not ’follow’ more non-religion ‘thinkings’ such as anthroposophy or communism either. The same goes for Buddhism, or the religions such as Islam, Christianity or Judaism.

 

We believe in the words of goodness...

 

We believe in the essence of Christianity, Islam, Judaism  and Buddhism, which -we think- got overlaid with so much additional writings and information, that the kernel did get lost, which for us is (called GoodValues or GoodFundamentals):

 

Overview GoodFundamentals:

GVFund

Respect - Respect other people, yourself and nature.

GV1.1

No stealing

GV1.2

No lying - no secrecy needed, make things transparent

GV1.3

Reciprocity - Do not to others which you would not like they would do to you

GV1.4

Unpressed commitment - Live and work with unpressed commitment

GV1.5

Equality - Everebody is equal

 

 

 

That’s it! No more words aren’t actually necessary do describe were we stand for and how.

 

Off course the above mentioned principles can be further translated into various derivative principles, such as ‘pride is nogood’ (trespasses GV1.5). Isn’t ironic, that for example ‘pride’ is so often used in our society? Our leaders say “be proud of our company”, we say to our children “I’m so proud of you”, etc., and thus bringing destructiveness in our society. Pride is the most  deadly sin we learn at the same time. Ironic, dual morality in society (which trespasses GV1.2 and is therefore nogood too).

 

You can see that the goodvalues are not ‘new’, but are the same as mentioned in the ten commandments (words of g(o)od to  Mozes), which form the basis for the Islam, Christianity and Judaism, combined with some Buddhistic elements. So SpiriLogic members can be a Christen when Christianity practises the goodvalues, can be a Moslim when Moslims practise the good values, etc. We don’t mind, as long as the goodvalues are really put in practise.

 

Analysis - keep the eyes wide open

How to put these goodvalues or principles in practise? The idea behind it is quite simple: we look at society with the above mentioned principles in mind. When a thing (eg. the concept ‘stock’ (financial product)) does trespass the above mentioned principles, we think “hey, why is that?”, than we go back to the roots of the concepts ‘stock’ to find out why society actually invented such a concept. Why did it get into our world? Than we analyse whether it serves society nowadays, and thus we define the ‘underlying requirements’ of the thing.

 

Quite often the result of the analysis phase is that the thing was initially ‘good’, but got worse and worse through the years due to all kind of negative things (greed, lying, etc.). A nice overview of these things can be found in Christianity (the Seven Sins) or the described destructive emotions (we call them destructicons) in the book Daniel Goleman wrote after having dialogues with the Dalai Lama.

 

Redesign and implement

So knowing what we actually want and what is broken about the thing, we can redesign and implement it. Sometimes it is better or necessary to just abandon the thing and introduce a better (more good) thing. Only than we can remove the badness of the thing that merely demolishes our society instead of bringing welfare too all...   Two examples of such things: turn stocks into goodstocks and redesign the cure for depression (the word ‘depression’ is sick).
