"Light" Lifestyle
Those adherents who wish to live a lifestyle completely given in service to the “Divine Light Presence” apply to stay at one of the teaching centers for a period of 3 months or 12 months. They learn to live life as a “Slave of the Eucharist.” According to the group, the name ‘slave’ stems from the biblical teachings of Romans. They do not have to give anything over to the CCA or the MMMI and return to their communities to live out the teachings in their own home church and families once the period of stay is over. Both the MMMI and the CCA adherents have a high commitment to partnership and marriage.
The use of photovoltaic "color energies" is extensively practised by both the CCA and the MMMI, for the development of unity with the "Light Presence." (Blue for example being the colour of spiritual enhancement.) Colour use of clothing, buildings, and gems are used to denote the "light energies" being used.

Famous quotes containing the words light and/or lifestyle:
“Over thy wounds now do I prophesy
...
A curse shall light upon the limbs of men,
Domestic fury and fierce civil strife
Shall cumber all the parts of Italy.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“The hippie is the scion of surplus value. The dropout can only claim sanctity in a society which offers something to be dropped out of—career, ambition, conspicuous consumption. The effects of hippie sanctimony can only be felt in the context of others who plunder his lifestyle for what they find good or profitable, a process known as rip-off by the hippie, who will not see how savagely he has pillaged intricate and demanding civilizations for his own parodic lifestyle.”
—Germaine Greer (b. 1939)
