The spiritual life is an active one. We recognize that each experience that comes our way is spiritually instructive.

If someone needs our help, we do what we can to the best of our ability.

Spiritual Freedom is growing into a state of more godliness. Becoming more aware of the presence of God.

When we reach the point in our unfoldment where we are treating others with love instead of fear, anger, or vanity, we’ve made a very important step back home to God.

On the outside, divine and emotional love may look the same, but divine love is joyful, thankful. It gives itself fully.

Let love be what it will. Don’t let the mind tell you one is human and the other divine.

The higher you go in awareness, the more you expect of yourself, because Divine Spirit is saying to you, "There is always a better way to do it." It gently nudges you to bring out the best.

can you give me a comprehensive summary of what eckankar believes in.doe eckanker believe in the god of christisnity?does eck believe in hell amd heaven, sin, salvation....
This quote summarizes Eckankar in one sentence: " Soul exist because of God's love for it".

The God we know in Eckankar is not a tribal god and does not have negative human characteristics like anger, hatred and jealousy as depicted in some books. Our name for the Almighty God is Sugmad and Its nature is divine love for all souls.

As a result of this love, God created the lower universes including Earth as classrooms for soul to experience life and mature by learning the lessons that will make it become loving just like God. Hence the issue of hell does not arise at all as a loving God will not burn Souls that It created out of love in an eternal hell fire.

What we have rather is karma and reincarnation. You are given countless opportunities to reincarnate and learn your lessons by paying off your karmic debt.

Concerning sin, what we have is freedom and responsibility. Meaning that God gives soul total freedom to make their life choices whether good or bad but soul must accept full responsibility for whatever choice it makes in life.

For salvation, soul does not need any salvation as it was not lost in the first place or depraved. What Soul needs is opening of Its awareness to who and what It really is and Its relationship with God. This opening of souls awareness can be achieved through the spiritual exercises of ECK.

The primary aim of Eckankar is to teach soul how to find spiritual freedom and become a Co-worker with God.

So few know what a love for living means. They’ve put a web around themselves and called it spiritual. Life is a celebration. Some will read that as wanton living, but true celebration is loving God and Its own.

Truth is so simple. So why doesn’t everybody know it? Because it’s too simple. Because we have our preconceived notions about what truth is or what it should be.

how do we close such doors?
This can be done through the Spiritual Exercises of ECK.
When you fill your inner being with the Light and Sound of God there is no space left for evil to penetrate.

does eckanker teach meditation?
Eckankar teaches Contemplation which is a more active form of prayer than Meditation which is more passive. This is achieved through the Spiritual Exercises of ECK.

do they have weekly programmes, an if yes;do I pau to attend?
of course there is. On Sundays we have ECK Light and Sound Service that runs for an hour, 9-10am.
The Service is preceded by a 30 minutes Spiritual Exercise which involves singing the HU love song to God from 8am to 8.30am.
During the week there are also programs like Discussion classes, workshops and HU songs that go on in the evening. The programs are open to everyone.
