Self-mastery is the measure of man's moral nature and the indicator of his spiritual development. Through discussions and dialogue we study all that governs our existence and our relationship with the Divine, to increasingly understand the pathways to self-mastery and spiritual perfection. In your dialogue here we urge you to help one another with the manifold difficulties of daily living, to always be respectful of the personality of others, and to find strength in the brotherhood we all share as children of the same Spiritual Parent. And by your love for one another, may you convince the world that you have passed from enslavement of the self to liberty of the self; from death into life everlasting.

Our goal is to create a safe and enriching environment for honest soul-searching and spiritual growth through respectful discussion, in a whole-hearted search for the truth, regardless of anyone's spiritual status.
