Organizations Filed Purposes: To aid any individual willing to put forth the effort to become a whole functioning self not dependent upon any person, place or thing for peace contentment or security.

The Applied Metaphysics course teaches students to become responsible to their Inner Self, while cooperating with others, therefore, they become the director/author of their lives. Classes focus on essential life skills such as concentration, visualization (focused imagery), meditation, and life force all foundational for exploring the multidimensional Self. Students exercise their minds on a daily basis to develop attention, concentration, listening, memory and imagination. This practice builds will power. Building and honing the mental muscle is much like one would faithfully practice physical exercises. In addition to the main coursework, the School of Metaphysics also offers courses with a specific focus like Concentration, Visualization and Dream Interpretation. Lectures, workshops, seminars, healing classes, Bible and other scripture study are also part of our regular offerings. The Universal Laws and Truths that govern creation are taught as part of each class type. The study enhances the whole life by developing greater inner peace, security and contentment in each individual willing to put forth effort. (continued on Schedule O)

After completion of the first cycle of lessons, students are eligible to spend one year or longer in residency at the College of Metaphysics (COM). COM affords students opportunities for direct application of the essential life skills and the ability to observe the operation of Universal Laws and Truths which they are introduced to in the first cycle of lessons. This program consists of 24 hours of immersion in metaphysics (meta - beyond; physics - physical; in other words, understanding consciousness and how the mind works) through activities of animal husbandry, horticulture, building and maintenance, cooking, individualized projects and more. Students have many opportunities to practice what they have been learning thus growing in understanding through experience which leads to mastery. For example, students learn how the mind works while in the garden. They visualize the fruits or vegetables (creations) are ready for harvest (manifestation) when the cycle is complete.

The School of Metaphysics gives 15% of its donations and 100% of a separately designated contribution fund each month to individuals who are experiencing emergency financial difficulty. This aids people in the community to get temporary relief so they have hope and can regain financial independence. In 2020, the School of Metaphysics gave emergency support to 54 individuals. The College of Metaphysics gives out 3 scholarships every year to local high school students who demonstrate responsibility through strong community involvement, good grades, and career goals. In 2020, the School of Metaphysics gave scholarships to 3 highschool students.
