THEOism practitioners have adopted UBUNTU as one of their lifestyle principles.
- UBUNTU
I Am Because We Are is evidence through our DNA.
Our DNA is the repository of all of our Ancestors from all walks of life. We Exist Because They Exist In Us!
THEOism practitioners accept as one of their truth that Ubuntu is The Spirit of Humanity… It’s the awakening of our ancient past of living together in harmony which is one of the basic principles of THEOism.
“Ubuntu is the essence of being human. It speaks of the fact that my humanity is caught up and totally bound up in yours.
I am human because I belong. Ubuntu speaks about wholeness, it speaks about compassion.
A person with Ubuntu is welcoming, hospitable, warm, and generous, willing to share.
Such people are open and available to others.
They are willing to be vulnerable, they are affirming of others.
They do not feel threatened that others are able and good, for they have a proper self-assurance that comes from knowing that they belong to a greater whole.
They know that they are diminished when others are humiliated, diminished when others are oppressed, diminished when others are treated as if they were less than who they are.
The quality of Ubuntu gives people resilience, enabling them to survive and emerge, still human despite all efforts to dehumanize them”
Reverend Desmond Tutu, Nobel Peace Laureate
