Has anyone heard of the University of Santa Monica in California that gives masters and doctoral degrees in Spiritual Psychology? I know people who have gone through this program and they are wonderful people, BUT the description of spiritual psychology on their website seems very new age-y to me – I have included it below:
“Spiritual Psychology is the study and practice of the art and science of human evolution in consciousness. In order to fulfill this quest, we must begin by distinguishing the essence of human evolution—what does it mean to evolve? In short, it means surrendering anything in consciousness that disturbs one’s peace. It also means sacrificing our illusions of separation. Essentially, this “surrendering” and “sacrificing” is work that can and has been called “healing,” which includes healing on the physical, mental, and emotional levels in service to the deeper revelation of who we truly are as Loving, Peaceful, Compassionate and Joyful beings. We refer to this level of awareness as the Authentic Self.”
I have been going through some tough times and people I love swear by this program and what it has done for their lives.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Here is a link to their website:
