1. While responsibly maintaining itself, MPMS should conduct its activities for the sake of others, whether for the public at large or a particular segment of the public.

Significant progress towards world peace and global well-being can be fostered through inter-religious, intercultural, and interracial work, and across artificial barriers of politics and ethnicity that tend to separate people and their institutions. MPMS will maintain ethical, cooperative relationships with other for-profit and non-governmental organisations (NGOs), and should partner where possible and appropriate for the sake of the greater public good. MPMS will be willing to work beyond borders of politics, religion, culture, race, and ethnicity, within the limits of the organising documents and with organisations and individuals that share common values and objectives.
