Idea for a new religion - Chapter 14 - Power of The People & Daily Moral Behaviour

POWER OF THE PEOPLE 1) Unemployment - Although God believes that the state should provide our basic needs, God also expects us to be active in our service of the greater good. If a person is unemployed then, apart from continuing to seek work,they must do their best to help improve life within their community, either through voluntary work or learning some useful skill or art or being active in politics or helping to raise money for charity or growing flowers and vegetables for their community or making something beautiful and useful.There are many ways to have an active and purposeful life and those who do not find good work to occupy their hands and mind may find themselves prey to demons who will try to push them towards depression, drink, drugs or crime. 2) Changing the world - Voting is not the only way in which a person can influence and improve the world. Ordinary people working together, motivated by a cause they believe is right, can change the world. Belief in a cause or principle is like a wind that pushes the sail of a united people. They should do more than grumble about the failings of their government, they should unite and struggle for change. United, they are God and have a divine force for justice flowing through them.

DAILY MORAL BEHAVIOUR 1) Diary of good deeds - Every faithful follower should keep a diary of their good deeds. Do something kindly every day and record it within your diary. Being kind and caring every day keeps the soul in good health. All that is good within a soul shall be reborn while all that is bad within it shall be cast away and consumed; that is why we must try to do more good than evil within our lives. 2) Chastisement- Always be moderate in your chastisement of others. Every child should know equal love and discipline. Only a parent who is good, caring, conscientious and kind towards their child should have the right to discipline them. Only a good and loving parent can be trusted to chastise a child fairly and in moderation. 3) Following a timetable - Organizing and giving structure to your life is easier if you follow a timetable. For those who find it difficult creating their own timetable, they may ask a priest, or some other trusted person, to do it for them. Nature follows a timetable of rising and setting suns and changing seasons and so, regulating ones time is not unnatural and, though it might seem to restrict us, can empower us and give us more freedom. Rest and leisure are essential for a healthy,balanced life, so always remember to keep saturday and sunday free.
