Leader/All:
We come together today to honor the most holy: the origin of creation and the source of us all.
Leader/All:
We vow to protect and preserve The Great Mother and her children for all generations to come.
Leader/All:
We do all things with Love.
The Church of the Holy recognizes that our members operate daily within secular economic and political structures. To maintain spiritual purity and alignment with The Great Mother, all committed members and clergy are bound by the following Church Laws:
"It is forbidden to profit from destroying another human being’s life or any natural system on Earth."
Do not enrich yourself through the destruction or enslavement of life.
The extraction of wealth through the deliberate degradation of the biosphere, the logistics of warfare, or the exploitation of human vulnerabilities—including the use of forced labor, modern slavery, and unpaid or barely paid labor—is a severe spiritual transgression. No legitimate value can be built on the stolen time and captive bodies of others.
"It is forbidden to deny your truth for the convenience of others."
Do not betray conscience for convenience.
Capitulating to systemic coercion, falsifying records, or silencing one's moral conscience to ease compliance or convenience is a denial of the original light.
"It is forbidden to knowingly omit, alter, or spin scientific data for gain or convenience."
Do not corrupt truth for power.
To distort data, suppress inconvenient environmental findings, or manipulate research models to serve an economic master or secure personal advancement is to poison the well of human knowledge. It is an act of deep spiritual corruption.
"It is forbidden to deny medicine, therapy, or care that can be used for the emotional, mental, or physical wellbeing of others."
Do not withhold care for profit or punishment.
The body and the mind are the living children of The Great Mother. Gatekeeping, withholding, or rationing life-saving care, psychological therapeutics, reproductive medicine, or pain management to serve profit, insurance algorithms, or punitive state legislation is a direct assault on the sacred.
"It is forbidden to lie or deceive for gain, by knowingly representing harm as healing, or destruction as stewardship"
Do not disguise harm as virtue.
It is a severe transgression against The Great Mother to engage in deceptive practices, such as "greenwashing." To manufacture a false narrative of sustainability—such as fabricating the recyclability of plastic, using vague terms like "eco-friendly" to mask chemical toxicity, or using carbon offsets to hide systemic environmental degradation—is to practice active spiritual deception.
"It is forbidden to design, promote, or enforce economic models, algorithms, or structures that assume infinite growth on a finite planet, or that treat the living systems of The Great Mother as externalities of zero value."
Do not deny material limits.
Wealth is not created by printing currency or shifting digital spreadsheets; it is generated by the conversion of real energy and physical resources harvested from The Great Mother. To mask resource depletion, ignore systemic ecological buffers, or calculate corporate profit while pricing the destruction of the ecosystem at zero is a profound delusion and an act of violence against the material truth of creation.
"It is forbidden to destabilize local food supply chains, compromise natural biodiversity, or poison the soil and pollinators for gain."
Do not poison the womb of creation.
The soil, the seed, and the pollinator are the foundational biology of The Great Mother. To patent the code of life, to force farmers into systemic debt cycles through terminator seeds, or to saturate the earth with chemical inputs known to collapse pollinator networks is to wage a war of starvation against future generations for immediate corporate control.
"It is forbidden to design systems that exploit consciousness through manipulation, coercion, or involuntary extraction."
Do not commodify human consciousness.
True consciousness is a sacred resonance, not a mere pattern-recognition algorithm to be optimized for ad clicks or behavioral control. To weaponize digital code to exploit human psychology, strip away data privacy, or automate the financial starvation of working people is a severe violation of human sovereignty.
"It is forbidden to compromise the physical safety, physiological limits, or baseline human dignity of all workers for the optimization of efficiency."
Do not push humans past their limits, nor steal the value of their labor for material gain.
To squeeze the human elements of the production and supply chain past their biological breaking points using automated monitoring, forced sleep deprivation, or uncompensated physical risk is a severe transgression. Utilizing supply chains that rely on modern slavery, prison labor, or sub-living wages that trap human beings in endless cycles of survival is to practice systemic theft under the guise of logistics optimization.
"It is forbidden from elevating any human being above The Great Mother, who keeps every living being on her skin alive."
No human crown overrides the sovereignty of the source.
The Church of the Holy recognizes that language evolves across cultures, places, and generations. Titles, forms of address, and ceremonial language may be adapted to suit the needs of the community while preserving the underlying purpose they serve. The role is sacred; the label is a tool.
No title is inherently holy. No word is above revision. The purpose of language is understanding, participation, and connection.
Leader/All:
We reclaim what was lost and honor those who fell. We persist and resist oppression through time immemorial.
Leader/All:
We go forth today to continue the sacred and holy work for the betterment of The Great Mother and her children everywhere.
Leader: Blessed are the fruit.
All: Holy is the tree.
