2. Universal
Principles
|
|
| Article 07- Happiness | ||
| 7.1 | Happiness | |
| One of the most universal of all wants and desires of Men and Women is to be "free from pain", most often expressed in the positive as the "desire for pleasure, gratification and happiness." | ||
| 7.2 | Happiness of men and women | |
| While virtually all Men and Women seek happiness, happiness itself is paradoxically will always be linked to a unique and individual life that will experience pain, suffering and sadness. | ||
| Furthermore, a life of pure happiness, free from any pain represents itself a half-life, one without season, without cycle and incomplete. Such a life defies the natural laws of the universe. | ||
| Neither a nation, nor a Charter, however inspired, can architect a world of pure happiness. Yet, the quality of a nations foundation will always profoundly influence whether its citizens are generally happy, or oppressed. | ||
| 7.3 | The principle of self-love, the elimination of self-hate | |
| It is a founding principle of this Charter to help citizens find value and meaning in their lives, that the greatest love and the foundation of all valid virtue is to love and respect oneself. | ||
| It shall also be a founding principle of this Charter that all belief systems and communication that promote self-hate, (representing the foundation for negative emotion and behaviours) in whatever form, shall be clearly identified, labelled and regulated under the appropriate statutes. | ||
