I was just thinking about vows. The vows monks OR laypeople make. I mean, aside from the core ideas and preceps, there aren't too many vows that laypeople generally take. Have any of you guys taken any additional vows?

The I AM Prayer
I AM a Child of the Original ONE,
I AM a Ray of the Original Sun,
I AM Wholeness, I AM Love.
I AM the Truth that Spans the Sands of Time,
I AM the Rainbow of the Very First Shine,
I AM Music, I AM Light.
Let the Light Descend Upon Me,
Guide the Way with Golden Light,
No Other God will Stand Before Me ...
As I Embrace the One True Life I was Born to Live...
By the Will of the Original ONE.
I AM a Face of the Original God,
I AM a Voice of the Original Sound,
I AM a Wave Upon the Ocean of Eternal Light.
I Reach My Arms Up to the Heavens, and say,
I AM THIS I AM.
The Presence of the Ancient One
Springs Forth at My Command.
I AM One With God,
I AM THIS I AM ...
And, as I Decree It, So It Is.

I'm not affiliated with any organization and haven't taken any formal vows, though I've informally "vowed" to myself to uphold the goals of a Bodhisattva/the Mahayana path.
