Beliefs

Ok so would these work:

"The universe is created from one mind"

"So long as people continue to explore the multiverse, the multiverse will create new things to be discovered and explored."

and

"So long as one focuses his mind on something, anything is possible."

All are working fundamentals for beliefs, but they're hard to support with actions. Beliefs should include some value judgments along the way.

"The multiverse is created by one mind" -- and then what? What is that one mind's duty? What is the multiverse meant to accomplish? "The multiverse is created by one mind, which drives all beings toward perfect benevolence"? "The multiverse is created by one mind, which strives to impress its glory on its creations"? Et cetera.

I'm not quite sure how the other two beliefs could be built up to be supported by actions, but hey, anything's possible.

Obviously, I'll have to think a bit more about the Beliefs then.

I'm thinking its something like, "the universe is created by one mind, and it is the duty of that mind to continually create new experiences for those who inhabit it." I'm not thinking Vatndir's beliefs would go to "benevolence" or "good-evil", but more to the idea that the purpose of the one mind is to constantly provide people with "more" - with new and interesting things and to give them the ability to experience everything.

He does believe in some duty of the mind to give those he encounters a "good" life, and to avoid unnecessary suffering, but I'm not sure how to possibly incorporate that.
