It exists to disseminate information about Macrobiotics and related fields dealing with restoration, preservation and continuation of natural health for humanity, environment and life in general. Its goal is to assist the rehabilitation and reinvigoration of human life on every level of existence. Its scope of activity embraces biological, physiological, emotional, psychological, social and spiritual concerns, with the intent of reinstating human life to its proper position in the spirallic pathway of universal creation.
A central tenet of Macrobiotic belief is that human happiness, to be well-balanced and self-sustaining, depends on a spectrum of factors which must include a fundamental understanding of sound health principles. Without deep, instinctive familiarity regarding these principles, health and human life can become unstable and precarious. Society then reflects such ignorance in various self-destructive ways.
Believing wholeheartedly in the ancient admonition, "Seek the Truth, and the Truth will set you Free", CCMS is dedicated to the pursuit of Truth. It is especially concerned with the danger of accepting dogma as Truth, and, for that reason, encourages a spirit of free discussion and exchange of information on all topics that relate to health and happiness.
As a forum for discussion, it has recognized the Internet as a unique opportunity to exchange ideas freely on a global scale. By going online with a monthly newsletter, its intention is to present basic Macrobiotic ideas with the hope that they will, in a positive manner, contribute to the world's pool of knowledge for the betterment of human health, life, society and happiness. Feedback is always welcomed and encouraged. We are privately funded, and for this reason, accept gratefully any free-will contributions to help support the ongoing activities of CCMS.
