Pro-Ascetic Creed

Morally Strict and

Markedly Simple and Unadorned
in Appearance, Manner, and Attitude
MSA-MSAU-IAMAA

We are not interested in self-harm, self-destruction, or self-mutilation.

We want peace.

We do not harm ourselves or others.

We want pain to cease.

We take care of our spirits, minds, and bodies.

We meditate because we know there is love in self-acceptance.

We exercise because we know there is joy in self-awareness.

We fast because we know there is peace in self-control.

We pray because we know God is our strength and source of peace.

 

As a Pro-Ascetic...

I fast at least three days a week.

I exercise at least one hour a day.

I pray and meditate constantly, daily.
