What is Metaphysics?

“My definition of metaphysics would be the search for absolute reality. The search for: Who am I? What am I? Where have I been? Where am I going? What is the relationship of man, mind and the Universe? If you can answer those questions, you can find your place in life. If you can’t, then it doesn’t matter, you’re just a wanderer.”
—Dr. Paul Leon Masters

  • Metaphysics acknowledges and respects the beauty in ALL of God’s Creation.
  • Metaphysics is religion without dogma.
  • Metaphysics does not explore religious beliefs and laws created by man, but rather, it explores the immutable laws of nature, set by The Creator, God/Universal Presence, in the creation of the Universe.
  • Metaphysics is a branch of philosophy that studies the ultimate nature of existence, reality, and experience without being bound to any one theological doctrine or dogma.
  • Metaphysics includes all religions but transcends them all.
  • Metaphysics is the study of ultimate cause in the Universe.
  • Metaphysics is the only science capable of inquiring beyond physical and human science.

We Award All Inclusive Scholarships

It gives us great pleasure to say we have not raised our tuition in nearly two decades.

It is our intention to award prospective students an equal and affordable opportunity to participate in metaphysical studies and a higher consciousness education. Currently, scholarships are available to all enrolling students, making it easily affordable to study and earn your degree up to a doctoral specialization.

Scholarships enable you to enroll for as little as $90 down and only $25 monthly for 48 months for a total tuition of $1,290, or for as little as $990 for prepayment in full, saving an additional $300.

A scholarship will save you 80% off the total tuition cost and funding is made possible from generous alumni members, who have benefited from a scholarship and intend to pass their gift forward. The scholarship fund is reviewed for availability every two weeks.
