One Spirit Learning Alliance - One Spirit Interfaith Seminary

All authentic spiritual traditions, at their core, are committed to the common values of peace, tolerance, wisdom, compassionate service, and love for all creation. Beneath the diversity of theological beliefs, rites, and observances lies the deeper common ground built on a clear understanding of authentic spiritual experience. While there is great value in learning what others believe about the Divine, it is only on that deeper ground of how we experience this vast presence of energy and intelligence that we can recognize and embrace one another as brothers and sisters, and help each other become more fully who we are.

At One Spirit we draw from the rich heritage of human wisdom to guide the deep inner work of developing a consciousness worthy of our common humanity, to support the emergence of humankind’s next level of conscious evolution. In our families, our communities, our nation, across the earth, and in each of our hearts the time has come for us to remember our common identity, and to recognize clearly that our fate depends on each other. Opening our minds and hearts to this deeper level of experience informs and guides our inner journey, and is central to One Spirit’s vision of InterSpiritual education.

Essential Spirituality expresses deep, universal truths about the human condition, but not as a “one-size-fits-all” endeavor. Rather, it aims to provide a clear understanding and direct experience of those truths, within a framework that allows each individual to develop an inner life that best supports their own growth. Such spirituality is at home in every circumstance, and expresses itself as inner peace, wisdom, compassion, and skillful action in all aspects of life.
