Claritas Institute For Interspiritual Inquiry
Claritas is the
radiant light of understanding that comes when our veil
of separateness dissolves and we intimately embody the
unfoldment of the Good that is Spiritual Guidance.
The Interspiritual
Mentor Training Program (IMTP) and its parent, the
Claritas Institute for Interspiritual Inquiry, are
dedicated to regaining this vital sense of wholeness and
its spontaneous expression.
Why
Now and Why This Program?
We agree with many
world leaders, including Vaclav Havel that the most
fundamental contributor to distress and disturbance in
today's world arises from spiritual disconnection. This
loss of deep relationality affects the way in which we
approach work, how our children are educated, how our
patients are treated, and in general, the way in which
we regard and behave toward one another and the natural
world. The exclusively external focus of science in our
secular civilization has rendered us intellectually
acute but painfully subject to spiritual indirection. We
now inhabit a world that has been analytically
fragmented into ever smaller parts about which
specialists are learning more and more. But our sense of
meaningful belonging to the whole has been nearly
eclipsed.
Brother Wayne Teasdale..
The Claritas
Institute is dedicated to carrying on the work of the
late monk and spiritual teacher, Brother Wayne Teasdale.
Wayne was recognized by people of every religion as a
wise and pure being. He was committed to finding the
spirituality both within and beyond religion.
Our intention for the
Interspiritual Mentor Training Program is to delve
deeply into the perennial interspiritual philosophy of
guidance and discernment so that we may become more
fully present and capable of clear, compassionate action
in the world. Our intention is to help realize Wayne's
dream of birthing a civilization with a heart. |
