The
Culture of CN
The
purpose of Chivalry-Now is to reintroduce to western culture
and society its own historically sound values in the form of a code
of ethics. The 12 Trusts.
Along with this
code, we reintroduce what we call the Deeper Concepts
(previously called Esoterica, or Hidden teachings).
These meaningful terms from the past unveil the unique depth of
profundity of western beliefs that became generally lost over millennia.
They explain aspects of truth of which most people are unaware.
They define the highest virtue, the inner aim of human
evolution, Kairos, the anticipated epoch of history which we find
ourselves in already, and more.
As a cultural
movement, Chivalry-Now adopts a culture of it own that reflects
its ideals. In this way, we hope to provide an environment in which
the idelas can flourish.
Civility
is a strong component, in that it makes relationships, positive
discussion and a congenial means for personal growth possible. Courtesy
is the glue that holds everything together.
Chivalry-Now
seeks to transcend the combative tension of liberal/conservative
ideologies that divide and therefore hold back our culture. The
ancient Greeks fell despite their many achievements because they
fought among themselves. We see this happening today as ambitious
people in politics vie for power. By freeing ourselves of the liberal/conservative
mindset, we liberate our minds to better see truth and think for
ourselves. After all, thinking for ourselves is really what freedom
is all about. We lose freedom when we let other people tell us what
to believe.
It is also
important to understand that there is more than two sets of competing
values, often defined defined by their extremes. Truth holds no
respect for party lines. If we wish to use truth as our moral compass,
and heal the many wounds at the same time, we must free ourselves
first, and approach the challenges of life with an open mind.
Chivalry-Now
wants to be inclusive of people from all backgrounds, races
and creeds - which reflects the highest ideals of western culture.
We do this by uniting people under the aegis of conscience, thus
avoiding the tension that sometimes arises between people of different
faiths and/or secular beliefs. While this is not always possible,
our goal remains that of uniting people in a community of shared
values.
