42 Ideals of Ma'at
Aug. 13th, 2010 09:18 amThese are the 42 Ideals of Ma'at. They are based on the 42 Laws of Ma'at and were written by the Temple of Isis. These are sometimes hard to achieve, but all are worth striving for.
My thanks to
druidharper, who shared them on her LJ this morning!
I honor virtue
I benefit with gratitude
I am peaceful
I respect the property of others
I affirm that all life is sacred
I give offerings that are genuine
I live in truth
I regard all altars with respect
I speak with sincerity
I consume only my fair share
I offer words of good intent
I relate in peace
I honor animals with reverence
I can be trusted
I care for the earth
I keep my own council
I speak positively of others
I remain in balance with my emotions
I am trustful in my relationships
I hold purity in high esteem
I spread joy
I do the best I can
I communicate with compassion
I listen to opposing opinions
I create harmony
I invoke laughter
I am open to love in various forms
I am forgiving
I am kind
I act respectfully of others
I am accepting
I follow my inner guidance
I converse with awareness
I do good
I give blessings
I keep the waters pure
I speak with good intent
I praise the Goddesses and the Gods
I am humble
I achieve with integrity
I advance through my own abilities
I embrace the All
And I agree with
druidharper that they're excellent meditation material.
