About meThe Center for Sacred Sciences is a registered 501(c)3, non-profit spiritual organization based in Eugene, Oregon, USA. The teachings at the Center draw from the mystics of the world's major religious traditions, all of whom testify to a common, universal truth. One mission of the Center is to support individual seekers who wish to study and practice these teachings. Another is to foster a new worldview in which both spiritual and scientific truths can be seen as different but complementary ways of describing a single underlying reality.
