There are spiritual principles, or what some call human values, by which solutions can be found for every social problem.
Any well-intentioned group can in a general sense devise practical solutions to its problems, but good intentions and practical
knowledge are usually not enough. The essential merit of spiritual principle is that it not only presents a perspective which harmonizes with that which is immanent in human nature, it also induces an attitude, a dynamic, a will, an aspiration,
which facilitate the discovery and implementation of practical measures.
Leaders of governments and all in authority would be well served in their efforts to solve problems if they would first seek to identify the
principles involved and then be guided by them. (PWP, p. 2)
