"To Seek, To Learn, To Do"
The Brown Belt is awarded to those who understand the Nature of the Paladin. They have demonstrated through the quality of their work that they have the inner Strength to do something extraordinary.
A Paladin's Strength comes from our Knowledge that what we do is Right and Just. We accept the responsibility to make a positive difference in the lives of others and in the world.
Our Strength is our Sword to fight against ignorance, prejudicism, and hatred; to fight against despair, defeat, and apathy; to fight against cruelty, injustice, and intolerance.
This is the Paladin's Quest, and we accept it gladly.
