This Eleventh Commandment is a ground-breaking new code to bring humanity to a higher level of consciousness, and to increase the spiritual awareness of society. It can change the way we see and interact with each other on numerous levels. It brings us to the stage of understanding that humanity is responsible for its own spiritual maturity and that it is time to manifest a more elevated civilization.This new commandment guides us to: A deeper level of recognizing our spiritual identity and connection with God;Attain the great realization of perceiving the Divine within yourself and all beings;Transform our consciousness and the way we do business, politics, protect the environment, adjust our diet, and care for all;Distinguish the spiritual similarities between us all, which can bring about real peace in the world;Manifest God's plan for the world and bring the spiritual dimension into our lives;Be a reflection of God's love toward everyone;Open ourselves to greater peace and harmony within. The world is in need of a new direction in its spiritual development, and this 11th Commandment is given as the next phase to manifest humanity's most elevated potentials. Society has been evolving for many years, progressing to the degree that its particular knowledge, understanding, and perception allow. Many people are ready and anticipating the next step in the spiritual progress of the planet that could uplift the whole society and bring a new level of peace and understanding to the world. From the various religions of the world, we have acquired certain spiritual codes and rules that we have chosen to live by, and that we have used as tools to guide us, and they have served us well. However, most would agree that there is a need to enhance humanity's progress, even if it takes new insights and principles to add to what we already have, or even to supersede those codes that no longer provide the necessary clarity for a sharper spiritual perception and more refined awareness. Thus, this new code expects us to sophisticate ourselves to a higher level of civility, to a new dimension of activity, and to adopt progressive changes beyond what we had followed in the past. But it must be understood that its purpose is to assist us in acquiring a higher degree of spiritual perception and personal realization and development. Herein is the next step for consideration, which can be used as a tool for guidance, and for setting a higher standard in our society today. This can be used by anyone from any background or culture, and easily suites an interfaith dialog to propel humanity at large toward a closer spiritual unity with each other and with God. With this new principle, we can easily instill within our social structure a mutual respect for one another and a universal understanding of what we are and the spiritual similarities that we all share. The new realizations and vision that we need to attain, in order to achieve this goal, will then become apparent to us. This new commandment expects and directs us toward a change in our social awareness and spiritual consciousness. It is conceived, formulated, and now provided to assist humanity in reaching its true destiny, and to bring a new spiritual dimension into the basic fabric of our ordinary, everyday life. It is a key that unlocks the doors of perception, and opens up a whole new aspect of spiritual understanding for all of us to view. It is the commandment which precepts us to gain the knowledge of the hidden mysteries, which have for so long remained an enigma to the confused and misdirected people of this world. It holds the key which unlocks the answers to humanity's quest for peace and happiness, and the next step for spiritual growth on a dynamic and all-inclusive social level.
