 Five Vows of the Great Turning

 

• I vow to myself and to each of you to commit myself daily to the healing of our world and the welfare of all beings.

 

• I vow to myself and to each of you to live on Earth more lightly and less violently in the food, products, and energy I consume.

 

• I vow to myself and to each of you to draw strength and guidance from the living Earth, the ancestors, the future beings, and our siblings of all species.

 

• I vow to myself and to each of you to support you in your work for the world, and to ask for help when I need it.

 

• I vow to myself and to each of you to pursue a daily practice that clarifies my mind, strengthens my heart, and supports me in observing these vows.
