Sacred Templar Roots
Our order serves as a sanctuary where ancient chivalric values meet the promise of universal salvation. We believe in the holistic growth of the community, fostering healthy bodies, focused minds, and souls that find eternal rest in the divine love of our Creator.
3 pillars of the order of Universal templars
1. body - we believe in physical exercise at a minimum 3 times per week for 45 minutes per session. we also follow the traditional spartan diet of the knights templar which is four days per week meat is allowed. (monday, wednesday and sunday). tuesday and thursday we are strict vegetarians as it is believed meat corrupts the body. friday we are allowed fish and other creatures from the sea. Our body is our temple and we must take care of it as it is not our own.
corinthians 6:19-20 "Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the holy spirit, who is in you, whom you have recieved from god? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. therefore honor god with your bodies."
2. mind - we believe that a quiet mind is a happy mind. as it is written in psalms 46:10 "be still and know that i am god."
we meditate a minimum of 15 minutes 3 times per week in quiet solitude. in doing so we reign in our thoughts as it is written in 2 corinthians 10:5 "casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of god, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of christ.
3. Spirit - we believe in the power of prayer. phillipians 4:6-7 states "do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to god. and the peace of god, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in christ jesus." at a minimum we recite 3 hail mary's or 1 full paternoster per week.
