Nonviolence, truth, nonstealing
Sacred sex, nonconsumerism,
Physical work, avoidance of bad taste,

Local economy and respect for all beings.
These 11 principles
Should be followed with humility, care, and commitment.
"Prayer does for the purification of the mind, what the bucket and the broom do for the cleaning up of our physical surroundings. And that is why we always commence our proceedings with prayer. No matter whether the prayer we recite is the Hindu prayer or the Muslim or the Parsi, its function is essentially the same, namely, purification of the heart."
- Mahatma Gandhi
