"Science of Mind is a philosophy, a faith and a way of life" UCRS Mission Statement It is our belief that taking the SOM classes enriches one’s life beyond giving a deeper understanding and meaning to the philosophy of Religious Science and the Science of Mind. Each class has been specifically created for a intended focus. Some classes are optional, and are not required to be taken in any order. As one begins their journey through the class material, beginning with the Foundational Class, they may desire to pursue the licensing as a Practitioner. If such is the case, then certain classes must be taken to comply with Pre-requisite requirements. To learn more about each class, its costs and length, please review the following:

As a student moves along their journey of enlightenment, everyday challenges and opportunities begin to be viewed differently. Matters addressed in the Foundational Class are viewed now from a different perspective, as the Spiritual Practices are applied on a more consistent basis. This is truly a deeper journey into self-discovery… or as the name implies, Self Mastery. The Self-Mastery class focuses on healing the perceived separation between personality and Spirit. Through an active exploration of the creative nature of thoughts and feelings, beliefs and emotions, the students have an opportunity to gain mastery in the art of living as a conscious, intentional being.
