Greg,
Thanks for that. I enjoyed all the promises in the creed, but this one in particular.
"I promise to...
Give so much time to improving myself that I have not time to criticize others."
If we could all honor this one... Wow, what a difference it would make. Great stuff!

It really is an amazing standard to keep.
My favorite is, I promise myself... "To think only of the best, to work only for the best, and to expect only the best."
I agree wide adoption of one of these creeds would make a significant difference in the world.

Thanks for sharing Greg. I found it interesting to see one of the Secret teachers is the source of the TUT newsletter I subscribe to. Connection. Bingo!
