About  [Edit]

One Spirit Learning Alliance (and its One Spirit Interfaith Seminary, which ordains interfaith ministers) www.onespiritinterfaith.org is a large trans-traditional faith and spiritually based community, network and organization with many educational activities centered in the New York City area.  Nearly a decade old, its educational activities include both its interfaith seminary program and its "Learning Alliance" of public and long distance learning activities.  One Spirit is also an activist community connected not only to many activist concerns in the New York City region (from those of environment to values and social justice) but also an innovator in educational programs that address the interface of values, ethics and spiritual concerns with urgent world issues.  Particularly, One Spirit offers educational programs in "Interspirituality and Integral Multifaith"-- the relationship of the "common core of human wisdom" to issues like world shift, world transformation, cultural pluralism and harmony, political plursalism and harmony, religious pluralism and harmony, and critical world environmental concerns.  Courses, activities and programs often aim at integrating the common core of human wisdom with critical world issues.

Some 3000 persons are part of the wider One Spirit community in the New York City area and One Spirit cooperates with New York's Coalition for OneVoice and, also here at WiserEearth, with the WiserEarth Group "New York City Metro Coalition".  One Spirit also offers its facilities for many meetings of these groups.  Further, One Spirit is involved with other New York City organizations and NGO's in authoring and preparing presentations and curricula on trans-traditional, trans-cultural and worldcentric topics.  This includes projects like "One World, Many Voices" (working with Bridges of Understanding), and "Interspirituality and Integral Multifaith" (based on the visionary work of trans-religious pioneer and monk Bro. Wayne Teasdale [Discovering a Universal Spirituality in the World's Religions)] which, in turn, works with the New York Integral Alliance and New York Integral Salon associated with the integral work of worldcentric thinkers like Ken Wilber and Don Beck.  "Check out" these visionary course offerings regularly at www.onespiritinterfaith.org.
