Our Teaching
As a Divine being, you are the master of your destiny.
This is the great message Science of Mind® brings to people of all faiths. It is a fresh concept of religion as a life philosophy and a science. As a philosophy, Science of Mind®
presents a practical, down-to-earth way of thinking about the nature of
the Universe and our relationship to it. As a religion, it presents a
philosophy that is both mentally stimulating and emotionally
satisfying. As a science, it presents specific and definite ideas which
you can demonstrate for yourself and directly experience the benefits
in your life.
There is a power for good in the Universe greater than you are—and you can use it!
Science of Mind®
is a system of mental and spiritual principles, combined with a
technique for the application of these principles. It is designed to
live and expand consciousness in ways that lead to an even higher order
of livingness. It emphasizes the spiritual connection of all, thus
promoting peace and greater harmony at all levels of experience. The
consistent application of Science of Mind® results in health, satisfying relationships, enhanced creativity, and prosperity.
Change your thinking and change your life!
Science of Mind®
is not a closed system of thought. It grows continually as humankind
evolves, drawing on the frontiers of knowledge as well as the wisdom of
the ages.
What We Believe
It is done unto you as you believe.
Religious
Scientists believe, very simply, that the Universe is fundamentally
spiritual—it has intelligence, purpose, beauty and order. Whether we
call it God, spirit, energy, or Universal Intelligence, every person,
place and thing emanates from this spiritual universe. We believe this
Universal Intelligence is within us, as well as around us, and that we
are conscious of it. Our beliefs are in harmony with the basic tenets
of all the world’s great religions.
Religious Scientists believe
that God is a loving Infinite Intelligence, operating through and in
all of life, never separate from anyone or anything. Through classes
and study we come to understand our oneness with this indwelling Divine
Presence. The way of life we teach and practice is learning how to live
in accordance with spiritual principles. These principles, or
metaphysical laws, are as reliable as the laws of physical science.
In the scientific aspect of Science of Mind,
we believe there is a body of knowledge about spiritual laws which
operates in the Universe as Cause and Effect. We teach that "It is done
unto you as you believe." Our thinking and our expectations create our
reality. It is in studying and applying spiritual laws that we can
change our unconscious beliefs and create improved conditions in our
lives.
