WELCOME TO TEACHING SCIENCE OF MIND!

Welcome to the Education Catalog for Centers for Spiritual Living focusing on certificated education

from Foundational level courses through Practitioner Training. This document provides Centers and

instructors with the latest education information and procedures. This document will be updated

periodically and the newest versions will be uploaded to the internal website: www.ourcsl.org.

Centers for Spiritual Living is undergoing an education overhaul. There are many committees and teams

working on enhancing and enriching our educational materials, procedures and deliveries. The new

curriculum will be developed with a global and inclusive perspective in mind. I know that through our

collaboration we will offer the best of our intellectual and heart-centered materials to our

students. Our goal is always to offer the best of Centers for Spiritual Living to the world. Together

we take what began as a series of lectures by our founder, Ernest Holmes, in an auditorium in Los

Angeles almost 90 years ago and realize the greater vision of making this teaching available to every

person seeking it.

This catalog is a result of the collective efforts of the Centers for Spiritual Education Department staff,

the Education Committee and input from the field. The process of continuously enhancing and evolving

our curriculum and delivery is underway. This catalog provides up-to-date educational policies and

procedures, information to register students for courses, the education requirements for practitioner

training and instructions to obtain transcripts for licensing. All changes in Centers for Spiritual Living

Education policy and procedure will be published in this document.

The CSL Education Catalog complements the Centers for Spiritual Living Policies and Procedures Manual,

which is often referenced here. Together, the Education Catalog, the Policies and Procedures Manual,

and the individual course curricula are designed to provide Centers with everything they need to teach

Science of Mind to students in their respective communities.

Thank you for your consciousness and sacred service in offering these courses and for the redesign of

Centers for Spiritual Living Education. Please know that the Education Committee and the Education

Department of Centers for Spiritual Living are always here to serve the Centers and students of this

teaching.

Love and Gratitude,

Rev. Nicole Merges

Manager, Spiritual Development Education

EDUCATION PROGRAM

Organizational Vision: Centers for Spiritual Living is a global organization comprised of individuals and communities committed to living consciously as expressions of God.

Education Vision: Centers for Spiritual Living provides education that transforms lives, igniting the potential of each individual to connect with their True Self and to apply and express love, and facilitates personal and global stewardship, healing and connection.

Our Mission: Our mission is to continuously create a profound, professional, and provocative curriculum with emphasis on the consciousness as embodied and taught by Dr. Ernest Holmes. We produce curriculum that includes the practices of Spiritual Mind Treatment, Meditation, and Visioning, and is consistent with the philosophy of Science of Mind, while reflecting ageless wisdom and exploring new ideas from modern science, quantum physics, and psycho-spiritual approaches to Truth. PURPOSE AND PHILOSOPHY OF EDUCATION PROGRAM

The purpose of the education program of Centers for Spiritual Living is to provide the resources, structure,

awareness, methods and tools to support spiritual education to our world and fulfill the vision and mission of the

organization through transformative delivery of our courses of study.

The philosophy of the education program embodies the following tenets:

Centers for Spiritual Living places great trust in its ministers to lead, teach, facilitate and oversee the education programs in its member communities, and its practitioners to deliver the programs with the approval and under the supervision of a senior minister.

Our work as teachers is ultimately about supporting our students in transforming their consciousness. In doing so, it is ultimately the consciousness of the teacher that is continuously expanding. Our daily spiritual practice as teachers and the resulting expanded consciousness is ultimately what the teacher has to offer the student. The education curriculum is designed to free the teacher to focus on expanding and transforming consciousness.

The Science of Mind teaching provides universal spiritual principles with which students may transform their lives. It is not meant to be dogmatic; the greatest interest is in fostering students’ development and growth along their spiritual path, and not to convince them to adopt the Science of Mind philosophy, although many students will simply because of its powerful impact on our lives.

It is a sacred honor to be a spiritual teacher, and with that comes great responsibility to treat students with dignity, honor, respect and reverence. This need not be approached with fear but approached with great humility and humbleness.

The Education Department and Education Committee of Centers for Spiritual Living are here to support the work of our ministers and practitioners as teachers of Science of Mind courses. While these two bodies are entrusted with overseeing and implementing policies and procedures, their highest role and intent is to facilitate the greatest possibility of offering the Science of Mind teaching in the most effective

way to our students around the world. Teachers are encouraged to reach out to the members of these groups for support.

ETHICS OF THE SPIRITUAL TEACHER

Why a Section on Ethics?

Ethics is a system of moral principles or rules of conduct or practice, recognized by a particular culture or group.

An ethical act is one where we refrain from causing harm to others’ experiences or expectations of

happiness. Like a spiritual act, it fosters love, patience, and tolerance. The motivation for ethical acts moves

from a consciousness of caring and seeking to benefit others, rather than from self-interest. These acts make

for lasting rather than momentary, happiness and a sense of well-being. The Dalai Lama (in Ethics for the New Millennium) suggests that those individuals whose conduct is ethically

positive are happier and more satisfied than those who disregard ethics. Yet, conducting ourselves ethically

means more than merely obeying laws and precepts. It means guarding against those factors which

obstruct inner peace and promoting those things conducive to inner peace (i.e., concern for others and a

high degree of sensitivity and feeling). A consideration of ethics is an invitation to consider inner

motivations and the consequences of one’s own actions. Ethics for Science of Mind Classrooms As Ministers and Practitioners, we are teachers and facilitators of learning environments for understanding

and practicing the Science of Mind teaching. We create teaching and learning environments and

experiences in which students who desire to discover and apply this philosophy in their lives may do so. This

is accomplished not only through the content of the material studied, but also the experiences they have

through what we model for them, and through what is shared by their fellow students.

Our intention is that students experience the following: 1. SPIRITUALITY: We model the practice of universal principles expressed by Ernest Holmes in his statement

“What We Believe.” That is, we look beyond materiality and invite ourselves and our students into

demonstrating an openness to the Unseen, as The Presence is ever seeking to express itself in new ways in

our daily lives. 2. LOVE: We allow the blessings of Spirit to flow through us and as us so students have an opportunity to

discover they are welcome, appreciated, valued, heard, understood, respected, guided, responded to, and

validated for the variety of ways which they express. 3. INTEGRITY: We honor our spiritual beliefs and are fair in our actions. Students have the opportunity to

see consistency between what we say and do. We refrain from any romantic or sexual relationship with our

students. Students experience the sacredness of the trust they place in the teacher.

4. CARING: We are concerned about, have affection for, and make a conscientious effort to ensure

each student has the best learning experience.

Page 10: Centers for Spiritual Living Education Catalogue

5. COMPASSION: In all we say and do, we express kindheartedness and generosity toward all. Teachers

should be consciously aware of the impact of their words and actions on others’ wellbeing. This is

demonstrated in how assignments are recommended the way students receive feedback and the nature of

dialogue and discussion.

6. ACCOUNTABILITY: We are conscientious in fulfilling all course and education program agreements with

Centers for Spiritual Living and with the students. We enthusiastically seek opportunities to report to CSL all

that is requested, to explain students’ responsibilities and to fulfill students’ expectations as identified in

course descriptions. 7. TEAMWORK: We encourage students to learn and work together in harmony. At times students are in

positions where they follow, lead, engage in consensus and have the opportunity for individual choices. 8. OPEN COMMUNICATION: We create opportunities for teachers and students to express their own

thoughts and hear others’ authentic thoughts and points of view. Students and teachers discuss, dialogue

and explore meanings behind points of view and feelings expressed. 9. CONFIDENTIALITY: Students experience a safe environment where confidentiality around individual

sharing is agreed upon by all. 10. EDUCATION: We recognize the unique needs of adult learners. Our students have opportunities to

reason, discern, acquire knowledge, intuit, contemplate and prepare to live as spiritually mature and

enlightened individuals. They have opportunities to discover, think, talk, observe and create. They are

provided ways to practically apply universal principles and sacred stories to their personal circumstances and

to contemporary issues.

11. COMMUNITY SERVICE: We create opportunities for students to discover their internal motivations,

spontaneous expressions, and spiritual commitment as they anchor their spiritual growth through sacred

service in the local and global community.

TEACHING AND LEARNING IN SCIENCE OF MIND CLASSROOMS

Let us begin this section with a quote from our Founder, Ernest Holmes in The Science of Mind:

Peace be unto thee, stranger, enter and be not afraid.

I have left the gate open and thou art welcome to my home.

There is room in my house for all.

I have swept the hearth and lighted the fire.

The room is warm and cheerful and you will find comfort and rest within.

The table is laid and the fruits of Life are spread before thee.

The wine is here also, it sparkles in the light.

I have set a chair for you where the sunbeams dance through the shade.

Sit and rest and refresh your soul. Eat of the fruit and drink the wine.

All, all is yours, and you are welcome.

May this be the spirit and vibration in each of our Science of Mind classrooms!

Teacher Responsibilities

Expressing from the consciousness Ernest Holmes so beautifully established in The Science of Mind you, as

teachers of the Science of Mind, are invited to enter into the “Teaching Order,” the hallmark of our Religious

Science Ministry. You serve the community drawn to your portals, by using the best methods for providing

teaching and learning experiences. Teachers of the Science of Mind do this by creating a student- centered

teaching and learning environment which is attractive, warm, joyful, spiritually inspiring, honoring diversity,

intellectually challenging and practically useful.

Student-Centered Learning in the Science of Mind Classroom:

Supports Students’ Divinity: Science of Mind teaches that all come with the potential of revealing the Divine. Therefore, Science of Mind teachers recognize that each student comes with assets (ideas, ways of perceiving life experiences and ways of doing things) upon which the learning activities may be built toward an expanded repertoire.

Supports Students to Embody the Principles: Ernest Holmes reminds us that in order to understand, one must embody --- or make a concept a part of one’s being --- in thought, feelings and body. Science of Mind teachers provide opportunities for students to be actively engaged in learning by using experiential methods and by discovering and using outer and inner senses, to acquire and to express new understandings.

Enables Students to Be Motivated and Find Meaning: Adult learning theory suggests it is essential to draw on the experiences of mature students to stimulate interest in acquiring new understandings and to make topics relevant. Science of Mind teachers provide opportunities for students to relate personal, cultural, historical, and contemporary experiences to the content of the course being explored.

Page 12: Centers for Spiritual Living Education Catalogue

11

Provides Joyfully Attractive and Orderly Environment: Teachers and staff working with students are

encouraged to bring and inspire feelings of warmth and joy. Opportunities are provided for students to

be engaged with the information, to feel connected to the community of learners, to have fun

discovering and relating to one’s own foibles and expansiveness and to laugh and be surprised when the

new opens into the familiar.

Prepares for and stimulates a Spiritually Inspiring Atmosphere: Science of Mind teachers are expected

to set the tone for the course by engaging in pre-class activity to prepare their own consciousness to be

a transparent place through which Spirit flows freely into the learning experience with joy, wisdom,

intuitive insights, and brilliant guidance. Teachers provide the opportunity for students to be open to

the information to be shared. Each session starts with a centering moment - invocation, treatment,

meditation and/or visioning experience. During the session, the teacher guides students into deeper

realms of thinking, knowing, and expressing by asking thought-provoking questions, inviting intuitive

revelations, and engaging in creative expressions. The atmosphere is charged with students’

expressions of awe, wonder, compassion, and devotion.

Honors Students’ Diversity: Science of Mind teachers embrace the Global Vision of Centers for Spiritual

Living and recognize that the people of the world are of one inclusive community, our global family.

Teachers provide opportunities in the classroom for students to consciously deepen their sense of

connectedness with people of different economic, age, gender, sexual orientation, ethnic, nationality,

religious, and cultural backgrounds and experiences. Sensitive to Ernest Holmes’ thinking that unity

does not mean uniformity, the teacher takes time to find out about, experience, and support ways of

learning appropriate for cultures different from his/her own. The teacher creates opportunities for

students to acknowledge and accept differences among people. The teacher is an example of, and

facilitates harmony, respect, and fairness among people of different cultural groups in the spiritual

community. The teacher uses relevant language and examples, while facilitating application activities to

allow for unique ways of perceiving, understanding, and applying information to be honored.

Establishes Intellectually Challenging Assignments: Teachers present the curriculum in a way that

ensures that students participating in the course are challenged. Teachers raise questions stimulating

critical thinking, analytical processing, and summarizing the concepts discussed. Students discover they

are informed, mentally stretched, and/or soulfully deepened.

Strives to make Outcomes Practical: Science of Mind Teachers use, as examples, master teachers from

throughout the ages, to provide avenues through which the subtle, the paradoxes, and the transcendent

ways of knowing may become practically applied in students’ daily lives. Teachers use sacred stories,

the koans (the pithy and paradoxical statements which teach emptiness by confounding the intellect,

forcing students back on his or her direct apprehension of Reality), parables, ceremonies, rituals, lecture

and discussions, Socratic discourse, practical demonstrations of healings and artistic expressions to

ensure students perceive practical ways to transform their lives and transcend limited ways of being—

thus opening their lives to express their innate magnificence in the world.

SECTION I GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT CERTIFICATED/NON-CERTIFICATED COURSES

Certificated Courses – Centers for Spiritual Living (CSL) uses the term Certificated as follows:

• A Certificated Course is designed to ensure that the universal principles, as written by Dr. Ernest Holmes and identified as Science of Mind Principles, are made transparent to students so they understand and apply the principles and related practices in their daily lives. This curriculum is recognized by CSL. Certificated Courses are made available to anyone who is seeking spiritual growth. Additionally, hours accumulated while studying in any Certificated Course may be credited toward the requirements to enter the Professional Practitioner Studies Program in CSL.

CSL Courses are not certificated nor accredited by any other agency. Therefore, the courses may not

qualify for credit at any other establishment or educational institution.

Non-Certificated Courses – These are other courses developed by ministers or practitioners of CSL and may also be offered by member communities. They are usually shorter in length than the Certificated Courses and some are designed to be used by groups within the community with or without an authorized professional leading.

AUTHORIZED PROFESSIONALS TO TEACH CERTIFICATED COURSES

All certificated courses must be taught and registered through a CSL-affiliated community in good standing or the CSL Online Education Program.

• Centers for Spiritual Living Ministers licensed or ordained are authorized to teach Certificated Courses

and the Professional Practitioner Studies Program within a member community of CSL. • Spiritual Practitioners licensed by CSL may be authorized to teach Certificated Courses if so approved

by the Senior Minister of their member community, or their Regional Support Coordinator (RSC), the authorizing individual to sign off on the Registration Form.

• Online Course Teachers must be licensed as a Practitioner or Minister of a CSL-affiliated center endorsed by CSL (See 2016 CSL Policies and Procedures 10.5). Practitioners must be approved by their Senior Minister to teach online for an affiliated community. These individuals have demonstrated proven abilities to teach Science of Mind courses and proven online course delivery skills.

• Non-Certificated Course Teachers may be anyone whom the Senior Minister or Department of Education identifies as appropriate to deliver workshops or classes consistent with the Science of Mind philosophy.

AUTHORIZED ORGANIZATIONS to TEACH CERTIFICATED COURSES

• Member Communities that are affiliated with CSL may offer Certificated Courses. If the member

community is without a Senior Minister, Certificated Courses and the Professional Practitioners Studies Program may be offered, if approved and overseen by the Regional Support Coordinator or designee. The offering of the Professional Practitioner Studies Program by a Spiritual Practitioner who is the Director of a Teaching Chapter must be approved and overseen by the Regional Support Coordinator.

TIME REQUIREMENT POLICIES AND RECOMMENDATIONS

Certificated Course Recommendation: It is recommended to only enroll in only one course at a time, the

individual has the opportunity to study the material in depth, and apply this new understanding to his/her daily

life experiences—thus opening to embody the new concepts. A student in any Certificated Course may take

another certificated course concurrently with minister’s approval.

Time Requirement to Enter Professional Practitioner Studies: Beginning September 2015, students are

eligible to enter the Practitioner Program only after completing a minimum of 6 courses (see chart on page 17)

of study in the required courses from the subject categories listed in this Catalog. All certificated courses must

be completed within the preceding five years of enrolling into Practitioner Studies. If more than five years has

elapsed, that course must be retaken. For example, if more than five years has elapsed since taking

Foundations, the course must be retaken. No certificated course older than five years will be counted as

meeting any requirement for entering Practitioner Studies unless a variance is requested in writing by the

senior minister.

Time Requirement during the Practitioner Training: The Practitioner I certificate is valid for three (3) years

from the date of course completion for entry into Practitioner II. If more than 3 years elapse between

Practitioner I and II, Practitioner I must be repeated.

Practitioner Licensing: The Practitioner II certificate is valid for two (2) years from the date of

course completion for applying for licensing.

If more than two (2) years have elapsed since completion of Practitioner II, the student must

retake Practitioner II before reapplying for licensing.

If more than five (5) years have elapsed since completion of Practitioner I or II the student

must retake a Foundational Course and Practitioner I and/or II before initiating the licensing

process.

A practitioner license will only be issued with all pre-requisite courses registered with Centers

for Spiritual Living. An official CSL transcript of registered courses is required as part of the

practitioner license application. Transcripts can be requested by email to Misha Brigham

[email protected]

Responsibility for Adhering to Time Requirements: It is the member community’s responsibility to verify

that time limits have been adhered to and that course work that was previously taken is appropriately

registered at CSL before permitting registration into any additional course.

Variances to these Requirements/Recommendations: The Senior Minister or Spiritual Leader of a

member community may make a request of the Department of Education for a variance to any of these

policies.

From Whence We Came

If you like history, then From Whence We Came is a course you will find most interesting. You won't have to

memorize dates or place names. The history is one of ideas which converged in American culture to become

what we now know as Religious Science and the larger New Thought movement. These ideas originally arose

before recorded history, but were rediscovered in the 19th century by some notable people whose works are

read and discussed in this course. These great luminaries of New Thought were the first to frame them in

words and make them accessible to the general public. Released in 2012.

Creative Process in the Individual (SOM 213)

Troward argues from basic principles we all understand, and shows how these principles may be carried into

the future. He relies on the maxim that “Principle is not bound by precedent,” and by the premise that we are

not only able, but also required, by the law of our own being, to take a more active part in our personal

evolution than has ever occurred in the past.

* It's All God (SOM 218)

In his book, It's All God, Walter Starcke has managed to take one of metaphysics greatest truths and put it into a

form and flow of words, which is easy to grasp. Starcke has done a masterful job of clarifying the necessity of

finding a realistic balance between living in the Absolute and the Relative world: It’s not a matter of “one or the

other”, but rather, discovering the key to doing both at the same time. His concept of the Double Thread is the

key element.

* Magic of the Soul (SOM 219) Combining the integrative principles and techniques from spiritual psychology with the power of the Science of

Mind teaching, Magic of the Soul offers a dynamic training opportunity for students. It answers questions like,

“Why haven’t I completely healed, even though I have been using spiritual mind treatment for years? How do

we deal with fear that comes up before and after treatments? How can we embrace our shadow while

affirming our divinity?” Magic of the Soul asks students to affirm and experience their inner divinity and at the

same time honor their humanness and appreciate the beauty of who they are in the here and now, on their

path to higher and higher expressions of divine nature. The most common theme throughout the text is to look

for the magic, the opportunity for growth, and the sacredness in every situation in life, especially the

challenging ones.

Spiritual fitness is a lifestyle and an attitude that can help you rediscover the real meaning and sacredness

and bringing all of you to your life experiences. It also means trusting that there is a greater power

constantly guiding you and inviting you, through your life experiences, to live more openly and lovingly.

When we trust, we start to make our choices and decisions from a place of love and courage instead of from

fear. This in turn gives us clarity and strength.

CURRICULA FOR SMALL GROUPS These are series classes for use in study groups or small groups within the larger community, each contains a

guided meditation, discussion questions and an experiential exercise. They are basic enough for the newcomer

and can be deepened in the hands of the right facilitator. They offer a context for a group to gather and share

ADVANCED STUDIES CLASSESThese classes are designed for people with advanced spiritual knowledge who wish to join in community with other

like-minded people to deepen their study. These are shorter classes, designed for approximately 2 hours, although

it can go longer if a talkative group. There is reading and some light homework assignments. These classes assume

that the student already has mastery of the teachings of Ernest Holmes. These subjects expand into other writings

and ideas as an opportunity for enrichment. 4-6 weeks.

Mysteries of Faith This class is an attempt to work within ideas that cannot be verbalized but rather are known within. It explores

nonverbal knowing, the power of ritual, and spiritual knowing that extends beyond religion. The text is The

Soul’s Religion by Thomas Moore. Each class contains a deep ritual process, led by a student team.

The Spiritual Path of Loneliness Loneliness is the great epidemic of our time that is rarely discussed. This class gives the practitioner the

opportunity to consider the path of isolation and transform individual experience into a deeper grasp of

Oneness. The text used is The Thunder of Silence by Joel Goldsmith. Students receive and complete a Soul

Notebook that asks them to answer questions on a daily basis. 3 weeks

anyone who would like to make careful use of the time they are given. For the practitioner, it addresses

questions of aging and empowerment, no matter what the age. The central exercise of this class is to create a

menu of your life and learn to make wise choices for your time. Text: A Time to Live by Richard Raines.

An Introduction: Spiritual Economics This is an excellent prosperity class that includes fun exercises for greater Divine Abundance. The reading of

Spiritual Economics by Eric Butterworth brings rich material for discussion to this course and gives the

practitioner the opportunity to look at all of life and find the flow of good moving in every area. The final class
