What We Believe
The Principles of the Science of Mind Philosophy
WE BELIEVE in God, the Living Spirit Almighty; one, indestructible, absolute and self-existent Cause. This One manifests Itself in and through all creation, but is not absorbed by Its creation. The manifest universe is the body of God; it is the logical and necessary outcome of the infinite self-knowingness of God.
​
WE BELIEVE in the individualization of the Spirit in us, and that all people are individualizations of the One Spirit.
​
WE BELIEVE in the eternality, the immortality and the continuity of the individual soul, forever and ever expanding.
​
WE BELIEVE that heaven is within us, and that we experience it to the degree that we become conscious of it.
​
WE BELIEVE the ultimate goal of life to be a complete freedom from all discord of every nature, and that this goal is sure to be attained by all.
​
WE BELIEVE in the unity of all life, and that the highest God and the innermost God is one God. We believe that God is personal to all who feel this indwelling presence.
​
WE BELIEVE in the direct revelation of truth through our intuitive and spiritual nature, and that anyone may become a revealer of truth who lives in close contact with the indwelling God.
​
WE BELIEVE that the Universal Spirit, which is God, operates through a Universal Mind, which is the Law of God; and that we are surrounded by this Creative Mind which receives the direct impress of our thought and acts upon it.
​
WE BELIEVE in the healing of the sick and control of conditions through the power of this Mind.
​
WE BELIEVE in the eternal Goodness, the eternal Loving-kindness and the eternal Givingness of Life to All.
​
WE BELIEVE in our own soul, our own spirit and our own destiny; for we understand that the life of all is God.​

Spiritual Practice
Spiritual practice is the process of personal evolution
​
As we cultivate ourselves, focus attention upon the expansion of our awareness and compassion, we begin to create the higher vision of ourselves and through intention to live up to this. Through Spiritual Practices we are able to transform our thinking and consequently our hearts which opens the flow of the divine into our lives and unlimited grace/blessings flow.
​
The lotus flower has become a symbol for awakening to the spiritual reality of life. As the lotus flower grows up from the mud into an object of great beauty, people also grow and change into something more beautiful!
​
That which grows the flower, whether you call it God, Spirit, Christ-consciousness, we believe is a Creative Intelligence, and all that it wants from you is the opportunity to express itself! And you are that opportunity! It does that by awakening in you, moving through you, expressing its inspiration as you!
The Center for Spiritual Living provides spiritual tools that transform lives and make the world a better place!
​
Our programs are designed to help you develop into your highest self-expression . What we know is consciousness is developmental - that means being aware that there's always more to learn, more to do, more to become.
​
And that we become what we think about - so we bring you the tools that help you design the life of your dreams!
