A comprehensive spiritual system combining ancient wisdom with practical methods for esoteric development.
The fundamental aim of the Researchers of Truth is to study and understand our True Nature — to know Who and What we really are and what we are meant to become as present-day personalities. This inner journey involves consciously walking our path through life with awareness, striving toward self-realization through the correct use of Mind-Supersubstance, and understanding life in God.
To seek and experience Divine Truth through self-knowledge, spiritual discipline, and service — awakening the inner, eternal Self and living in harmony with the spiritual laws of the universe.
The foundation of our path is to deeply understand who and what you truly Are. This means realising the difference between the temporary personality (thoughts, emotions, mortal body) and the Real Self (the immortal, divine essence within).
Truth isn’t something to believe blindly — it must be experienced through inner work. Through observation, meditation, and self-inquiry, one gradually perceives deeper spiritual realities.
While rooted in Christian teachings, the focus is on the inner, mystical meanings behind scripture. Christ is seen as the Divine Logos — a living force of divine love and truth within all.
Human beings are made of Gross Matter (Physical Body), Psychonoetical Body (Soul/Personality), and Noetic Body (Spirit/Real Self). The goal is to harmonise these layers and allow the Real Self to express itself fully.
All spiritual growth aligns with immutable laws like the Law of Cause and Effect, the Law of Love, and the Law of Correspondence. Mastery of life comes from living consciously within these laws.
Regular practices like meditation, visualization, and observation of thoughts and emotions are essential for purification of the personality and awakening inner vision.
True spiritual development includes compassionate service to others. Healing others physically, emotionally, or spiritually is considered sacred work.
A reflection on the current state of humanity and our collective journey.
We observe great confusion around us, in all countries and communities. People have enslaved their bodies, minds, and hearts to base desires and emotions. We have become intoxicated with the material world, turning our gaze outward at the expense of our inner development. Rampant egoism, individual and communal, has brought much ruin at local and global levels.
In the last few centuries, we have witnessed a tremendous effort to develop the material world around us. For many, this has resulted in a higher standard of material living, extended life spans, and great bodily health. Much of this effort is commendable, but now we must ask whether our improved quality of life has also brought inner contentment? Or have we misplaced our connection with the transcendence in our exploration of matter?
We cannot continue to develop the material plane while neglecting our psycho-noetical development. The real growth of each body and the other planes depends on harmonious and proportional gains on all levels and locations.
As researchers of truth, we know that it is a timeless truth that with each day, we create and recreate our hells and our paradises, both here on the material plane and in the worlds we pursue after we pass over.
The same material with which palaces are constructed is also used to build prisons: the mind as love and reason, or the mind fashioned by emotions and desires.
Reason is the highest gift of God to man, and love is our real nature. In our work, we are moving towards a new system of living. By properly using the holy mind, replacing ‘desire-thoughts’ with conscious ‘thought-desires’, we are becoming masters of our bodies, desires, and emotions.
Each one of you is now in the place the Total Wisdom has placed you, according to the Law of Cause and Effect. You are not there by chance; you are obeying the Divine Plan placed in the circumstances, family, community, and nation necessary to learn your next lessons. In general, what are these lessons? To be patient, tolerant, and loving, even towards those who stand against us. Let me put it another way: to be a good Christian, Buddhist, or Muslim – it’s all the same. This is what we are teaching.
We see many positive signs of change emerging. Human rights are being championed globally, international boundaries and dividing walls are crumbling, and we are witnessing growing environmental concern. It is important for each of us to contribute to the Divine Principles that promote peace and harmony in our own worlds and universes.
Jesus Christ asked His disciples to behave in a way that would witness love and grace, inspiring others to adopt these values and behaviours. I hope our Circles will set an example in our homes, communities, and globally.
As our Circles will be blessed by the heavens, may they bless the worlds.
The seven sacred promises that guide our path as Researchers of Truth.
“I Promise to myself:”
To serve at all times and in all places Absolute Beingness to whom I whole heartedly belong.
To be ready at all times and in all places to serve the Divine Plan.
To make good use of the Divine Gifts of thought and word at all times, in all places and under all circumstances.
To endure patiently, without complaining, all forms of trials and tribulation which the most wise Divine Law may bestow upon me.
To love and serve my fellow human beings sincerely from the depths of my heart and Soul no matter what their behavior may be towards me.
To meditate and to contemplate daily Absolute Beingness, with the objective of total coordination of my thoughts, desires, words and actions with Its Divine Will.
To investigate and check every night whether all my thoughts, desires, words and actions are in absolute harmony with the Divine Law.
“These promises are not mere words, but sacred vows to guide our journey toward illumination.”
Our Father, Thou art in Heaven,
Hallowed be Thy Name, Thy Kingdom come,
Thy Will be done on earth as it is in Heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our transgressions
as we forgive those who are transgressing against us.
Lead us while being in temptation and deliver us from evil,
for Thine is the Kingdom and the Power and the Glory, forever.
Absolute Infinite Beingness; Everlasting Life, Love and Mercy
Manifesting Yourself in Yourself as the Total Wisdom and the
Almightiness in your Omnipresence.
Enlighten our minds to understand you as the Truth
Clean our hearts to reflect Love towards You, and towards all other
human beings – Amen.
