Our Teaching & System

The original website’s central statement of purpose, guiding philosophy, observations, Sacred Promises and prayer — retained in editable sections and marked for source review.

Inherited draft — source verification required

This wording was inherited from the original test website. It is preserved here as working material and must be checked against approved primary sources before it is treated as authoritative teaching.

The Aim of The Researchers of Truth

The fundamental aim of The Researchers of Truth is to study and understand our True Nature — to know who and what we really are and what we are meant to become as Present-day Personalities. The inherited draft describes an inner journey of conscious living, self-realisation, correct use of Mind-Supersubstance and understanding life in God.

To seek and experience Divine Truth through self-knowledge, spiritual discipline and service — awakening the inner, eternal Self and living in harmony with spiritual laws.

Core Principles of the Guiding Philosophy

“Know Thyself”

The inherited text distinguishes the temporary Present-day Personality from the Real Self and places self-knowledge at the foundation of the path.

Spiritual Science and Direct Experience

Truth is presented not as blind belief but as something to be investigated through observation, meditation and self-inquiry.

Esoteric Christianity

The original draft emphasises inner meanings in Christian teaching and presents Christ as the Divine Logos.

The Human Being

The former wording used a threefold scheme that requires correction and expansion using Permanent Atom, Etheric Double, Present-day Personality, Individuality (Soul) and Spirit-Ego-Self.

Universal Laws

The inherited text names Cause and Effect, Love and Correspondence as laws to be understood and lived consciously.

Inner Work, Service and Healing

Observation, meditation and work with thoughts and emotions are joined to compassionate service and healing.

Our Observations

We observe great confusion around us, in all countries and communities. The inherited text warns against enslavement to base desires and emotions, excessive outward focus and individual or communal egoism.

It recognises the achievements of material development while asking whether those achievements have brought inner contentment. It argues that development must be harmonious and proportional, and that human beings continually create conditions experienced as paradises or hells through the use of mind, emotion and desire.

The draft describes reason as a gift of God and love as our real nature. It calls for patient, tolerant and loving conduct, for contributions to peace and harmony, and for circles of study to set an example in homes and communities.

This is a condensed editorial arrangement of the longer inherited “Our Observations” passage. The original site remains the reference copy while the full passage is compared with an approved source.

Our Sacred Promises

The seven promises below were present in the original site and are preserved as inherited wording pending comparison with an approved source.

  1. First Promise: To serve at all times and in all places Absolute Beingness to whom I wholeheartedly belong.
  2. Second Promise: To be ready at all times and in all places to serve the Divine Plan.
  3. Third Promise: To make good use of the Divine Gifts of thought and word at all times, in all places and under all circumstances.
  4. Fourth Promise: To endure patiently, without complaining, all forms of trials and tribulation which the most wise Divine Law may bestow upon me.
  5. Fifth Promise: To love and serve my fellow human beings sincerely from the depths of my heart and Soul, no matter what their behaviour may be towards me.
  6. Sixth Promise: To meditate and contemplate daily Absolute Beingness, with the objective of coordinating thoughts, desires, words and actions with Its Divine Will.
  7. Seventh Promise: To investigate and check every night whether thoughts, desires, words and actions are in harmony with the Divine Law.

Our Prayer

Our Father, Thou art in Heaven,
Hallowed be Thy Name, Thy Kingdom come,
Thy Will be done on earth as it is in Heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our transgressions
as we forgive those who are transgressing against us.
Lead us while being in temptation and deliver us from evil,
for Thine is the Kingdom and the Power and the Glory, forever.

Absolute Infinite Beingness; Everlasting Life, Love and Mercy,
Manifesting Yourself in Yourself as the Total Wisdom and the Almightiness in your Omnipresence.
Enlighten our minds to understand you as the Truth.
Clean our hearts to reflect Love towards You and towards all other human beings — Amen.
