General Information Course Descriptions The Curriculum


The Curriculum

The College of Metaphysical Studies bases its curriculum on the information disclosed by a careful analysis of Metaphysics and the Truth revealed in faith that can be applied and interpreted to meet the challenges of the new millennium. CMS teaches a living spirituality which recognizes and assimilates the contributions and revelations of the arts and sciences and all living faiths of the world. The courses are for the most part, a compilation of many of the great metaphysical/religious/spiritual authors of their times. The information contained in our courses is meant to simply state the established facts and allow the student to progress further with a solid foundation and a better understanding. The CMS urges each student to question as he/she progresses and accept only that with which he/she feels comfortable. Each course contains a bibliography of the material and authors used in the compilation of that course. If the course does not contain a bibliography, one can be obtained by contacting the Dean of Education, CMS. The curriculum for the CMS Education Programs has been developed out of the foregoing objectives for metaphysical education, full appreciation of the actual functions involved in a metaphysical/spiritual environment, and devotion to the growth and unfoldment of the students enrolled in this program. The curriculum involves three major kinds of learning:

FOUNDATION STUDIES: These individual disciplines are studied so that you can establish the foundation for your own reflection on the metaphysical, spiritual and factual issues of the ministry.

THE DISCIPLINE: To study to become a metaphysical practitioner is to study a comprehensive life-style, a life-style of the whole person, which is not just Metaphysics, or Meditation, or History, or Counseling, or Communications, but is all of these and more. While these subjects are important and necessary to learn individually, the study for the metaphysical profession itself is a whole that is greater than the sum of its parts. The whole of metaphysical service includes the consciousness and skills needed to minister. As consciousness, metaphysical service is an expression of the feelings, thoughts, values and beliefs of the one who serves. You will learn to think of the metaphysical profession in terms of specific functions and then to ground these functions in your own consciousness using the various disciplines and perspectives you have learned.

DEVELOPING A PERSONAL BELIEF SYSTEM: This is really the central method of learning the curriculum and is meant to tie all other kinds of learning together into one purpose. You will develop a clearly articulated personal belief system. The goal of this study is to help you systematically consider what you believe and to organize that belief in a way that can be effectively communicated to others.

This learning method is used because we know that students graduating from the CMS practitioner program and assuming leadership positions in the New Age/New Thought movements do not take with them separate disciplines such as Metaphysics or Healing, or the Ministry. Rather they take with them a developed or underdeveloped, effective or ineffective consciousness (belief system) made up of their beliefs, revelations, convictions, and experiences which are externalized through them as a practitioner.

The CMS recognizes that you come into this program with your personal belief system already functioning, then the disciplines of Metaphysics, Spiritual Awareness, Healing and Intuitive Development are either effectively or ineffectively integrated into that belief system. It is our conviction that the chosen practitioner education must not only present the basic disciplines, but must include the process of the student's reflection upon their individual belief system, and encourage and support its unfoldment.

For this reason the CMS seeks to help you surface your own individual belief system and reflect upon it in an organized way. It is clearly understood that a person's beliefs and concept of their service will continually unfold. This helps you begin the formal process of thinking through and clarifying what your system or belief really is and how you want to present it. The following features are emphasized:

  1. Exploration of the relationship between your personal belief system and the New Age/New Thought belief systems. The New Age/New Thought belief systems are the formulation of thought and belief recognized by those who make up the New Age/New Thought movements as a whole. These belief systems are primarily found in writings and practices used by the New Age/New Thought movements.

  2. Integrative -- you consciously merge the foundation disciplines and your own unique system of thought and ministry.

  3. Functional -- the belief system stresses the function of your beliefs in your work. You explore the question, "What do my beliefs cause me to do in my service as a practitioner?"

The development of your individual belief system continues throughout the entire course of study. Upon the completion of each study discipline you will be required to prepare a definitive statement (thesis) of your understanding of what it means to you to be a metaphysical practitioner.

Self-Design Degree Program

Our innovative Self-Design Degree Program allows students to elect their own field and major area of study. Students must complete the required core courses. The remainder of the courses in their curriculum may be self-design. The Self-Design Degree Program is a collaborative arrangement between student and faculty advisor. Once approved, the student then moves through the curriculum at his or her own pace. Communication occurs between the student and the faculty advisor with the faculty advisor providing support, guidance and mentorship.

Time for Personal Processing

CMS recognizes the importance of students having the opportunity to reflect on their own individual learning and growth processes. Planned time is structured into each course of study for this kind of reflection.
