Values: What is important.
Creativity
Through acts of creation and aesthetic reflection, we practice self-expression and innovation in alignment with the cosmic force.
Appreciation
As artists of consciousness, we love life as our personal creation.
Learning
Studying the teachings of all wisdom paths and the creative artifacts of all traditions, we broaden our perspective and pursue life-long learning and mind expansion.
Transformation
CoSM embraces radical acceptance and inward evolution within ourselves and the collective.
Communication
Open, honest, respectful and clear communication throughout our workplace and community is essential.
Teamwork
Collaborating with enthusiasm and unity of purpose, we share and participate with staff, volunteers and guests in co-creating a CoSM experience.
Sacred Community
Building a sacred space builds a community that catalyzes the creative spiritual path of every individual.
Observance
To wage peace and raise the vibration of our light bodies, we engage in contemplation and ecstatic celebrations linked to cosmic alignments shared by the whole human family — Full Moons, New Moon, Equinoxes, and Solstices.
Work Ethic
Operating both business and personal affairs with integrity, responsibility, and cleanliness, we do what we said we'd do, when we said we'd do it.
Business
Business, our liaison with the world, extends CoSM’s message and ideals. Committing to a healthy, well-functioning business model supports the spiritual purpose of CoSM and the collective good. CoSM pays its debts and operates with courtesy and professionalism.
Service
Service to the community by attuning to the experiences, needs, and expectations of guests and co-workers is karma yoga, a spiritual discipline of selfless action toward personal betterment.
Earth Honoring
Respecting planet earth and all creation, CoSM is a stand for revitalizing and sustaining the life-web and environment.
Sacred Mirrors
The body of knowledge and wisdom communicated through the art of CoSM reflects the divinity in every human being. The symbol of the Sacred Mirrors point to a vision of the One Self.
Excellence
In our personal lives, in our jobs and creative pursuits, we strive toward the highest potential.
Diversity
CoSM embraces gender balance and altruism toward all races, religions, ages, and sexual orientations.
Universal Spirituality
CoSM celebrates all traditions and wisdom paths that uplift consciousness to visionary mystical states and catalyze personal contact with the Divine.
