University of Sedona - The Leaders in Self-Paced Distance Learning for Metaphysical Degrees since 1959 Mission - To offer spirituality to those in search of higher spiritual truth beyond that found in conventional, traditional, fundamentalist, or dogmatic religion while encouraging the individual, metaphysical perspectives of students for creating a diversity of new approaches to spiritual practice and ministry. To ensure the continuation, preservation, expansion, and integrity of the founder’s teachings. Vision - To provide affordable education in higher advanced Holistic, New Thought Metaphysics, as well as Transpersonal, Transcendent, and Theocentric Metaphysical forms of spirituality, so graduates from our degree programs are well prepared to teach, counsel, coach, practice spiritual healing or engage in whatever their chosen metaphysical specialty may be. Purpose - To conduct further research into the nature and source of consciousness for discovering the spiritual mysteries of life and how such knowledge may be practically applied to the improvement of human life, both individually and collectively. This includes the evolution toward the synthesis of science, psychology, transcendentalism, and mysticism so that eventually absolute spiritual truth and absolute scientific psychological truth may compliment and explain each other as one reality.
