From The Network of Spiritual Progressives: A spiritual activist is one who is a courageous warrior of love! Being a spiritual activist means working to create a loving, just, sacred, and sustainable world through means that are also loving, just, sacred, and sustainable. A spiritual activist practices empathy in word and deed as a way to build beloved communities and transform consciousness.

What we do makes such a difference in this world and we all have the decision to decide what KIND of difference we can make. Most of the times we think to ourselves, ‘Who am I to do this? How does just 1 person make a difference? Well I’m sure someone else can do it instead…’ We live off this Bystander Effect and on the idea that we can pawn off responsibility to others and that our contribution doesn’t truly matter. But imagine if instead of thinking this way — we all grasped that our choices MATTER in all that we do.

Society can attempt to harden and frighten us, to make us lower our voice and discourage us from speaking up. We must choose to consciously rise above these negative forces in order to stand up together as a collective. Spiritual Activism is leading with our purest heart's intention. We can do this in many aspects of our lives whether it is politically with our votes, in the workplace in who we choose to support and stand by, or whether it is everything that we consume. We have a say in everything that we purchase and where we put our dollars. We must be mindful of what we are consuming and practice consciousness in each facet of our lives. Spiritual Activism IS for everyone and together we CAN create a sustainable and beloved community.
