The UNIVERSAL CULTURAL, HUMANIST, RELIGIOUS AND SPIRITUAL ALLIANCE FOR MODERN TIMES, Inc. is neither a One person rule nor a "secret clan", a "metaphysical or supramystical system", a "Spiritualist heaven", a "sectarian Kingdom of God", a fanciful "Mystic Order", or even a matter of a single exclusive Religion, Faith, Fraternity, Guild, or philosophical movement. - It is above all the Universal Community of Free People who Believe and Think freely and with sovereign autonomy, yet abiding by the GOLDEN RULE which is the religious essence and philosophical condensation of all the Sacred Teachings of the sages of yester ages who have Enlightened, Guided, and Saved mankind. More than SEVEN HUNDRED different international organizations and many millions of individuals on their own integrate the UNIVERSAL BROTHERHOOD - CO-OPERATIVE - COMMONWEALTH OF MANKIND.

We are greatly interested in the past as well as in the future of mankind; and we have enlisted the goodwill of all people of sincere ideals and pure heart to collaborate unswervingly and unselfishly in a grand Mutual Benefit endeavor destiny to ensure a better future for the human species as well as to improve human character and conditions to that effect. For we seek the genuine Scientific and Spiritual Synthesis of Life. In this respect we believe it is as much the duty and obligation of everybody else -- all people regardless of race, faith, nationality, sex, age, cultural background, economic capacity, or spiritual potentiality. - In this respect, it is the supreme GOLD SEAL for all mankind to guarantee we are not just ruthless empire makers, super egotistic hegemonists, or super dupers of any sort. The most sterling and bonafide spirit of human solidarity presides over our endeavors and designs as well. We hold and contend, in fact, that neither GOD nor the TRUTH really require any sort of defense. That is why we speak

NOT AS SPECIALLY ENDOWED AND SUPER PRIVILEGED CREATURES, BUT, TRULY ENOUGH, IN THE NAME OF THE INTEREST OF ALL PEOPLE CONCERNED.

The UNIVERSAL ALLIANCE, indeed, constitutes the Cosmic Voice and Eternal Spirit authentified by no less than 700 different organizations and scores of authentic Initiates and sages, so it is definitely NOT the outlandish command or the unworthy demand in the name of a single faith, religion, clan, sect, nation or self-titled 'Superior race'. HERE, we all bask in the vital and ultimate oneness of Divine realizations. Indeed, WHY should any single person, faith, religion, race, clan, sect, nation or empire have the exclusive right of owning the world and of ruling all mankind? WHY should the "reds", the "whites", the "yellows" and the "greys" or the "blacks" totalize the Universe and impose either its ideology, its gods, and/or its whims to the rest?

*   *   *

TO ALL STERLING RELIGIOUS, FRATERNAL, PSYCHOMENTALIST, SPIRITUALIST,HUMANIST, ARTISTIC, IDEALISTIC, ADVANCED THINKING, SINCERELY MYSTICAL, HIGHER PHILOSOPHYING AND TRULY SPIRITUAL ORGANIZATIONS AND PEOPLE WE SAY: IF THERE IS A REAL, SERIOUS REASON FOR OUR NOT BEING MORALLY UNITED AND IN SPIRITUAL COMMUNION, LET US CORRECT IT FORTHWITH.

LET'S GET TOGETHER EFFECTIVELY (IN ACTION NOT IN WORDS AND PROMISES)-AND LEARN THROUGH PRACTICE TO BEAR OTHERS AND MAKE OURSELVES SYMPATHETICAL, FRIENDLY, KIND, HELPFUL, BEARABLE AND BROTHERLY TOWARD ALL OTHER PEOPLE- before talking of "brotherhood", "absolute purity", "peace" and what not. We cannot court or serve LIMITED NOTIONS, exclusive doctrines, frontierized and sectarian WHOLES and claim at the same time Divine Communion, Universality, or supreme Unity.

A RECORD THAT HAS MADE HISTORY

Hundreds of different small religious, fraternal, cultural, humanistic, humanitarian, benevolent, mystical, learned organizations have joined us. THUS WE MANAGED TO SUCCEED.

BUT

Thousands of otters have failed to understand our principles or havepreferred to ignore us and they disappear sooner or later, withoutglory even if with a certain amount of glamour.

THIS PROVES

That they could not do without

The UNIVERSAL CULTURAL, HUMANIST, RELIGIOUS AND SPIRITUAL ALLIANCE FORMODERN TIMES, Inc.

Which has done only too well without them.

Has this organization always lived up to its expressed principles and ideals? If not, in which cases did it falter, fizzle or fail, and WHY?

Must human beings hate, curse, burn or murder each other to prove who is of superior intelligence, who is more Divinely inspired, who is more deservant of glory and admiration? What is, has been and shall be this organization attitude or endeavor in this particular respect?

Would progress and prosperity stop or disappear if people were really peace­ful, democratic, religious, wholesome, humane and spiritual? WHY?

What sort of civilization would you prefer, excluding the present one? Why?

Is passive, contemplative, nihilistic philosophy preferable to creative consciousness, positive thinking and spiritual synthesis? WHY?

WHEN is man at his best, medium, low or worse? Why? Does art, science, religion and philosophy help in any way? HOW?

GOODWILL COMMONWEALTH

Temples, Universities: not grandeous buildings … but the human accomplishment. Some day people will realize that the best temple is our inner self-cult of culture.
