What We Believe – Our Guiding Principles
Center for Spiritual Living Boulder Valley is an affiliated member of Centers
for Spiritual Living, a global organization with hundreds of “centers” for
spiritual living.
We believe that the Universe is fundamentally spiritual, and that it has
intelligence, purpose, beauty and order. Our beliefs are in harmony with the
basic tenets of all the world’s great religions and for that reason we honor
all paths to God. Whether we call it God, spirit, energy, or Universal
Intelligence, every person, place and thing emanates from this spiritual
universe. We believe this Universal Intelligence is within us, as well as
around us, and that we are conscious of it.
We believe that God is a loving intelligence, operating in and through all
life, never separate from anyone or anything. Through classes, study, and
spiritual practice we come to understand our oneness with this indwelling
Divine Presence. We teach and practice a way of life where we can all learn how
to live in accordance with spiritual principles. These principles, which we
call the Science of Mind®, are as reliable as the laws of physical science. We
believe there is a body of knowledge about spiritual laws that operates in the
Universe as Cause and Effect. We teach that "It is done unto you as you
believe" and “As you think, so you become.” In essence, our thinking and
our expectations create our reality. It is in studying and applying spiritual
laws that we can change our unconscious beliefs and create improved conditions
in our lives.
Each spiritual community within United/International Centers for Spiritual
Living teaches Affirmative Prayer and other spiritual tools designed to help us
lead a spiritual life, think positively, and love deeply. Simply put, at Center
for Spiritual Living, we provide spiritual tools to transform our personal
lives and make the world a better place.
We Are a New Thought Spiritual Community
Center for Spiritual Living is a “New Thought” spiritual community and is
an affiliated member of the Centers for
Spiritual Living. In 2010, we changed our name from the New Horizons
Center for Spiritual Living to Center for Spiritual Living Boulder Valley.
The New Thought tradition dates to the 1880s and has its roots in the
Transcendentalist Movement of the 1830s. New Thought has a long and respected
history, and includes luminaries such as Ralph Waldo Emerson, Walt Whitman,
Phineas Quimby, and Emma Curtis Hopkins. Some of the
better known authors today whose writings parallel ours are Wayne Dyer, Deepak
Chopra and Eckhart Tolle (author of A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life’s
Purpose) as well as many others.
Our teachings incorporate the ancient wisdom of all the spiritual traditions
through the ages. People of all spiritual paths -- Christian, Jewish, Buddhist,
Hindu, Islam, New Age and others -- are all welcome in our communities.
Our Founder
Dr. Ernest Holmes (January 21, 1887 - April 7, 1960) was the Founder of
United/International Centers for Spiritual Living. Dr. Holmes’ book, The
Science of Mind, is recognized today as one of the leading viewpoints in
modern metaphysics and New Thought.
Dr. Holmes developed a universal philosophy and tools for spiritual living that
profoundly resonate to this day. His work provides us with a personal spiritual
path, an understanding of our relationship with the Universe, and a connected
and joyful approach to daily living.
