The Contribution to Peace

The Rosicrucians value tolerance and peace and celebrate a Rosicrucian Day of Peace worldwide annually on the fourth Sunday of June. These ideas for contributing to peace are printed and given out free at their Egyptian Museum and Peace Garden in San Jose:

  • I contribute to Peace when I strive to express the best of myself in my contacts with others.
  • I contribute to Peace when I use my intelligence and my abilities to serve the Good.
  • I contribute to Peace when I feel compassion toward all those who suffer.
  • I contribute to Peace when I look upon all men and women as my brothers and sisters, regardless of race, culture, or religion.
  • I contribute to Peace when I rejoice over the happiness of others and pray for their well-being.
  • I contribute to Peace when I listen with tolerance to opinions that differ from mine or even oppose them.
  • I contribute to Peace when I resort to dialogue rather than to force to settle any conflict.
  • I contribute to Peace when I respect Nature and preserve it for generations to come.
  • I contribute to Peace when I do not seek to impose my conception of God upon others.
  • I contribute to Peace when I make Peace the foundation of my ideals and philosophy.
