Our Philosophy

Reverence is the spiritual path of radical respect, courtesy, civility, manners, awe, and amazement. A way of seeing and being in life, it is best learned through example. S&P's Reverence Project identifies a wide range of resources that illustrate how it is expressed and acted upon. One of our goals is to show how reverence is a transformational practice both for individuals and societies. Our overview of the project includes our brainstorm on the many meanings and applications of reverence.
