1. Each human being must search for, and find his own
meaning of life, and must want to use it (the meaning of life) for the improvement of their
own lives and actions.
2. Each human being must obtain a clear and concise picture
of (himself) and be his own “guiding personality”, who therefore
develops his own resounding ideas and pursues and realizes them.
3. Each human being must let his own reason and his own
understanding be exercised in such a way that he demands from himself that which is best and the most salutary; (and)
that he forms himself according to his own will, and that he obeys (the demands of) his own needs
in his own free way.
4. Each human being must form himself in such a way that
he always is himself, has originally-own (unique), intensive experiences, (and)
that he never lets himself be enslaved or subjugated in any other way and, consequently, preserves his internal and external
freedom in every respect; in his thoughts and feelings as well as in his decisions, views, opinions, emotions and actions,
etc.
5. Each human being must show towards himself the friendliness
and love that is necessary for him, and (must) feel safe and secure within himself as well as being
honest towards himself in such a way that he may understand his own thoughts, feelings, emotions, actions and opinions, etc.
6. Each human being must direct his thoughts, feelings,
ideas, wishes, needs and actions etc. in such a way that he feels capable for high-reaching goals that, however, shall always
be in accordance with his abilities and possibilities and, therefore, shall not be exaggerated and too highly elevated.
7. Each human being shall see and know himself as he
really is; therefore he shall not think of himself as a perfect world for this is not possible for any person because each
one must learn and, consequently, is exposed to mistakes and imperfection. Therefore, it is not possible that everything is
clear within the human being, (and) that everything is right and that he is better than his fellow-human
being.
8. Each human being must always be fully aware that there are consciousness-related
differences between each human being. Consequently, no one can be exactly equal in intelligence to another. But this does
not entitle anyone to see their fellow-human beings as blind and to classify them as a human being on a lower level. This
entitlement also does not exist if fellow-human beings are even labouring under a religion or sect, because they are all the
same human beings who are within the creative-natural laws of life and evolutional learning like all the others.
9. Each human being by himself shall endeavour through
his own efforts to form and fulfil his existence and existential duties in all forms of justice, honesty, reason and intention
etc., namely in the spheres of consciousness, character, virtue, thoughts/feelings, and the psyche.
In this way the human being shall create a firm motivation for rising within himself, without humbling himself in any way,
not even in a religious or sectarian manner.
10. Each human being shall not use neither his idealism
for unworthy nor un-provable and questionable things, but shall direct his idealism especially towards recognizing within
himself his own true being, and to improve, complete and realize it outwardly, because the true being is the actual nature
of everything that is directed towards progress and success, and that, therefore, is the source of the forming of life.
11. Each human being shall not believe in any thing,
but shall always search for the basic truth, which he can only find within himself if he searches and thinks about everything,
and by using his reason, his understanding and his sound logic. Thus the human being may find the truth only within himself,
but only if he is free of any belief in things he can never prove within himself. Belief is not proof, but simply something
that is assumed to be kind, desirable and right, without any provable content of truth; consequently, a belief can never be
cogent because of the fact that the provable truth is missing.
12. Each human being can never find the real truth for
which he searches for years or an entire life if he simply surrenders to a belief and does not explore and recognize the factual
truth through logic, understanding and reason within himself, so as to implement and comply with it through his life and lifestyle.
13. Each human being shall see as his highest goal to
progressively mould and implement his knowledge, his ability, his true love, his real happiness, his capabilities and opportunities
as well as his wisdom and humaneness in such a way that he can lead a truly evolutional and just, humane life and can also
assist the fellow-human beings in such a way.
14. Each human being’s prime concern shall be to
pay his own attention on himself, i.e. to his personality, his character, his virtues, thoughts, feelings and actions, in
order to align everything in such a way that all things are right, and not chase misleading goals which end in a belief in
unreal things.
15. Each human being shall manage his income and assets
in a reasonable way and shall not waste them on unreal, belief-related things, for each person shall do what’s right
and take care of himself if the opportunity and existence are available to him, so he does not unjustly become a burden on
the fellow-human beings and he does not behave as a parasite.
16. Each human being shall always live in the present,
but he shall look into the future and care for its shaping, while also considering the past and learning from it, in order
to attain success, realizations and progress.
17. Each human being needs rest and peace, and consequently,
he also needs his quiet hours and shall not be constantly busy, neither when alone, nor when in the company of his fellow-human
beings, the family or in communities. Each human being needs times of leisure because only through this is he able to compose
and recover himself. However leisure time shall always be in appropriate amounts and not be exaggerated, so as not to become
a burden to, and an annoying influence on one’s own thoughts and feelings, nor to his fellow-human
beings.
18. Each human being shall at all times pay heed in forever
searching for the truth only, and never for a doctrine of salvation because truly there is no such thing, neither in a philosophical,
religious, secular, sectarian or other ideological direction, nor can a doctrine of salvation be found in science. A doctrine
of salvation is always a belief-related deception, or at least charlatanry or criminal profit-making.
In truth, the only thing that always counts is reality, which is based on the use of sound understanding and reason as well
as on real logic.
19. Each human being shall always be frank and honest
towards his fellow-human beings, and he shall never presume – whatever may be the reasons –
to control his fellow-human beings in such a way that it results in harm to them. This shall be the case both in the family
as well as in every community, in order that neither backbiting nor discrimination (disadvantage)
or other wrongdoings occur.
20. Each human being shall pay heed to his internal and
external freedom and shall never bind himself to any things from which he may not be able anymore to detach himself, or (things) that frighten him of the step toward freedom; be it concerning purely material things and values
or a human relationship, or concerning a family or a community of any kind.
21. Each human being shall be intent on never accepting
and understanding any doctrines of a political, philosophical, sectarian, secular, scientific, religious or other ideological
form as “true truth” or as “real, true
knowledge”, etc., for – truly – each teaching
shall be examined down to the last detail because only in this way the effective truth can be grasped and reality experienced.
22. Each human being must always be clearly aware that
the life he lives, no matter how many years it may have lasted, has never been pointless or senseless. Consequently, nothing
has been lost in the life lived because each second lived has surely fulfilled its intentionality and brought about evolutional
success, even if the result may only have been minimal.
23. Each human being shall always be of clear and reasonable
senses and shall not expose himself to the constant influences of any teachings through which the possibility of one’s
own (independent) thinking, pondering, reasoning, ascertaining and understanding is taken away.
If the human being wants to occupy himself with some things or a teaching, he must always think about the possibility of finding
enough time to let his thoughts and feelings, his considerations and ideas, etc. unfold, so he can ascertain everything, and
can find the conclusions and the truth within himself.
24. Each human being must be intent on fostering interpersonal
relationships, to devote attention to familial relationships as well as friendship, comradeship and acquaintances. Parents,
brothers and sisters, friends, acquaintances and the fellow-human beings in general must always
be a source of joy and of peace, in the form of a freedom which has a unifying and expanding effect in each and every way.
25. Each human being must always be intent that life
will impart to him a sense and a feeling of being secure and protected to him. This must find expression both in the company
of fellow-human beings and when being alone (aloneness).
26. Each human being must shape his life by creating
events, so as to find in it love, happiness, joy, peace, harmony, balance and freedom.
27. Each human being who wants to live according to reality
must give to himself a sound sense of self-esteem and self-confidence
and preserve it; in this way – regarding oneself – healthy,
self-sustaining and progressive thoughts, feelings and actions can be best realized.
28. Each human being shall at all times behave in a decent
and virtuous manner and also in regard to his work and opinion, his knowledge and his learning in such a way that he will
be recognized and respected as a true human being in his nearer or further surroundings.
29. Each human being shall live his life in such a way
that – after having passed away – good memories result from
his life which let him live on in good thoughts posthumously.
30. Each human being shall live in such a way that the
fellow-human beings take an interest in his life and honour him in their thoughts and feelings. It may well be that there
are enemies who take interest in evil ways, but they shall be forgiven because peace and forgiveness shall be the work of
love, not hatred.
31. Each human being shall feel embedded into the good
company of fellow-human beings in order that a common experience of life may promote love, peace
and freedom as well as harmony and the happiness of each individual.
32. Each human being shall be eager in such a way as
to let develop that in his life which is thoughtful-feelingful as well as spontaneous and full
of love in a “empfindungs”-like manner. So it is given that each human being’s life finds new, good, pleasurable and
positive directions again and again, both spontaneous and also well-considered in many ways.
33. Each human being shall in every respect endeavour
during his whole life to fulfil it: with learning and gathering knowledge, with working for wisdom, with performing satisfactory
work, with true love and harmony as well as through being intent on keeping peace and freedom.
34. Each human being shall always be open for all things,
so he may constantly find much that is mysterious and exciting in his life, that which brings him surprise and astonishment,
perhaps even robbing him of his breath in joyful shock and letting him be forever young.
35. Each human being shall always foster an open, good,
loving, peaceful, harmonious and liberal relationship with all human beings, even if they are hostile towards him. As a rule,
hatred doesn’t harm the other person, but the hateful person himself because taking satisfaction in hatred becomes his
own disgrace.
36. Each human being must always be open to questions
about the meaning of life and the human being’s existence, and he shall be in need of them, so as to ponder and to talk
about them with his fellow-human beings, to gain cognition of truth therefrom.
37. Each human being must have the feeling and certainty
that he can communicate and explain to the fellow-human beings that which is important to him, and in return understanding
is given to him.
38. Each human being must have the feeling and certainty
that his fellow-human beings do understand what depresses and burdens him, and that he may expect
useful advice or some other help.
39. Each human being shall lead his life openly in such
a way that it is of use and an advantage for himself in every positive way, and also for his family, his relationship as well
as the community.
40. Each human being shall be intent to not avoid problems
and conflicts, but to search for solutions (for them), and to overcome them.
41. Each human being has the obligation to build up sufficient
self-confidence and healthy self-esteem so he can meet and master all
tasks and difficulties that arise in life.
42. Each human being shall always make an effort to not
let himself be upset, feel uneasy nor become unsure by any tensions that appear within himself or his fellow-human
beings.
43. Each human being shall endeavour to shape each situation
in his life in a conscious and carefully-considered way, if this opportunity is given to him.
44. Each human being shall form himself in such a way
that he doesn’t fall victim to shattering thoughts and feelings through unclear, confused and unpleasant situations.
45. Each human being must always be forearmed to meet
thoughts and feelings of reluctance in a relaxed way, in order to deal with them correctly and not to be at their mercy.
46. Each human being shall endeavour to communicate with
his fellow-human beings in order to express his own attitude and to represent his own opinion or
“learning interests”.
47. Each human being shall determine goals in his life
that he shall strive for and attain with forethought, attention, interest, motivation and self-confidence.
48. Each human being must consider his life worth living
in every situation.
49. Each human being must always determine his behaviour
by himself, and not by external circumstances, nor by fellow-human beings or by religions, sects,
philosophies, science or and other ideologies.
