 provides a visionary educational experience that supports 

the development of spiritual leaders in all walks of life. Rigorous academic 
standards, in-depth spiritual training and practice in an established enlight-
enment tradition, engaged community service learning, and one-on-one 
mentoring all combine to provide a well-rounded program for spiritually 
oriented students. A four year Master of Divinity degree is offered through the 
seminary as well as several certification programs and continuing education 
for professionals. 

Classes are arranged to provide working individuals the professional 

support, training, guidance, and spiritual direction necessary to further their 
spiritual growth and participate in the transformation of our awakening world. 

Those who complete the Master of Divinity degree are prepared for service

uplifting conversation with others on the path,  

and work devoted to God.
