What is Universal Vision?
Universal
Vision is a non-profit educational / religious (501(c)(3)) tax exempt
organization which is dedicated to research and dissemination of universal
knowledge. We hope this work will lead humanity to a common universal
understanding, resolving the various current mysteries in the process.
Although people have been exploring the earth and studying
the heavens for millennia, and although our knowledge of ourselves and
the universe has expanded greatly in the recent past, we really still
know only a small portion of the entire extent of knowledge available
in the universe. As a result, there are many mysteries and unknowns
about ourselves, the universe, and our relationship to the universe.
Many people are exploring these mysteries and unknowns. Some of this
set of people are exploring these in ways which we at Universal Vision
think are likely to eventually lead to correct solutions. Others are
just contributing to the noise.
We
want to help humanity rise above the local, regional, national, and
international hatreds, undesirable ambitions, jealousies, and other
negative aspects we see in everyday life. There is more to life and
a better way of living than finding a way to spite your neighbor, killing
someone for a few dollars, destroying many lives and much property simply
for hatred, taking over a nation to gain its resources or control its
people, and other such problems we see today.
The problem is that many, many people seem not to have learned
this yet.
How can we rise above these problems to realize what we
really are?
Some people have been trying to get humanity to do this
for a long time, without much success. We are proposing our solutions.
We have no illusions that achieving these solutions will be an easy
task. Indeed, it will be one of the most difficult tasks any person,
group, or society as a whole has ever undertaken.
As our research and integration efforts yield what we believe
are certain paths to take, we publish these in one form or another.
Currently, our pamphlets and newsletter serve this purpose.
How
does Universal Vision differ from other groups?
We have noticed that some groups, but not all, studying
these types of topics seem to practice “creative writing”
in their materials. They may put together one or more sets of text or
other material which have little or no basis in fact, yet they present
these materials as fact. These types of materials might include, though
this list is not all-inclusive:
- imaginary
“revelations” they have received from "non-incarnate
beings"
- an individual's
or group's beliefs regarding space aliens and communication with them,
which exists only in their minds
- predictions
claimed to have been made prior to an event; but in many cases if
you read the original prediction, it requires a significant stretch
to tie it to the event which occurred.
- philosophical
ramblings.
These
materials might be called “Junk food for your mind or spirit”.
They do nothing but add layers of fat, which must then eventually be
stripped away to reveal reality.
Universal Vision tries to take a more realistic, productive
approach. We try to stick to facts and document information where we
can. When we can’t, we try to make a logical interpolation or
extrapolation from what is known today. We try to clearly define terms
to reduce confusion.
We try to provide a philosophy of life which encompasses
all its aspects, not just those which may be obvious to everyone.
In this work, we readily admit that we don't have all the
answers. We are only human. We are not perfect. We may make mistakes.
But we think we do the best we can in pointing humanity in the right
direction, and trying to show why.
Universal Vision wants to provide a place where people can
discuss ideas. We encourage questions and debate. Our goal is to get
to the truth on each point – whatever that truth may be.
If
you have not already read our Vision and Goals
pages, please refer to those, too, for more detail about our intent.
We
have some further details on this in our pamphlets such as "Why
Do We Need Universal Vision?".
