60th Anniversary Catalog Outline

Fellowship and praise are central elements of the Spiritual Science community.  For over sixty years, the National Spiritual Science Center of Washington, D.C.. has served as a beacon to those in search of a meaningful relationship with God, a loving interaction with others and a genuine understanding of their personal power. Long considered a non-sectarian “oasis of spirit,” in the Washington metropolitan area, the Center offers spiritual tools to balance and integrate body,mind and spirit, enabling the individual to joyfully express the Divine Spirit with-in. We believe that worship should be enlightening, relevant, inspiring and renewing to the spirit.

The Center offers Sunday worship services, study o£ the science of spirit at our School of Spiritual Science, a variety of workshops and lectures, intuitive counseling and guidance from our graduate ministers, non-denominational celebration of mar­riages and other ceremonies and rituals which enrich both outer and inner life, and fellowship with like-minded individuals.

Central to our mission is the School of Spiritual Science, presenting a curriculum of practical spirituality and metaphysical training designed to guide the individual into deeper levels of spiritual activity over a four year period. Holistic concepts are emphasized and the course is designed for the student with no previ­ous metaphysical or spiritual studies; a high school diploma is a prerequisite. The program is ideal for those who wish to further explore and empower their spiritual lives. The course of study may lead to a three-year certificate in spiritual healing and certification/ordination after four years, for those who qualify.

Study materials are gleaned from the works of leading esoteric philosophers and teachers of all ages: Abraham, Alice A. Bailey, Annie Besant, Helena P. Blavatsky, Barbara Brennan, Dion Fortune, Richard Gerber, Manly Palmer Hall, Louise Hay, Geoffrey Hodson, Lazaris, C.W. Leadbeater, Joel and Michelle Levey, Stephen Levine, Carolyn Myss, Carol Parrish-Harra, Rev. Carl Horton Pierce, Plato, Pythagoras, Yogi Ramacharaka, Elizabeth Kublcr-Ross, L.V. Ross, Huston Smith, Rudolf Steiner, Chogyam Trungpa, Neale Donald Walsh and Gary Zukav.

Other Center activities include healing services, personal guidance and spiritu­al counseling, psychic/spiritual readings, seminars, conferences, Full Moon and New Moon meditations, and Equinox and Solstice celebrations.
