For more than 2,000 years, there have been two Christianities: the exoteric, or generally accepted one that most people who identify themselves as Christians believe in; and the other one, the one that the Christ Mind in Jesus taught only to the disciples. The teaching that was taught to the disciples, or the esoteric teaching, was the mystical teaching.
In the Infinite Wisdom of the Christ Mind or Universal Consciousness was the recognition that the broad masses of people who incarnate onto this physical earth plane are young souls with a limited capacity of spiritual awareness. Such souls can only assimilate what is said or experienced up to a certain level of spiritual awareness.

"In Absolute, Ultimate Reality, if you and all others were stripped of all personal concepts of consciousness, everyone would still be conscious; however, the consciousness would be universal consciousness, the mind of God, or God-consciousness.
Therefore, in an Absolute or Ultimate Reality, you and everyone else, although most would not have the least awareness of it, are God. As Christ put it, "The Father and I are One." And this is what is referred to metaphysically as Christ Consciousness, which is the same mentality or awareness that was in Christ, who recognized that ultimately all of life is an expression of the one universal life of God, or love."
—Dr. Paul Leon Masters, Theocentric Way of Life

"Christ’s Resurrection and Yours
from Worldly Concerns."
(Choose option: mp3 Audio Download)
| |
The idea of Resurrection is to put away the mortal part of yourself, to open to the infinite — that which is Universal — the essence of oneness. It is to roll away the inner stone of psychological blockage, to open up to immortal real-life energy. Awareness of your oneness with God/Universal Presence is to be intuitively led and guided by that tremendous
consciousness that is within you.
| |
Please note: The featured download is available for free for one week only.
We offer a new meditation download for free every week.
|
Resurrection meditation is for the purpose of opening to the power of Spirit, God, the Universal Mind, and its ability to renew, re-energize and bring new life you one’s spirit, soul, and life experiences. It’s also very helpful to open your heart and mind to the possibilities for your future, especially after experiencing difficult challenges, life-changing hardship, and transitions. It helps to rebuild your lifeless spirit when hope and faith have been damaged or totally lost due to painful situations like the loss of a loved one, career or business, financial crisis, mental and physical crisis, and anything where you may need to rebuild your life and spirit to move forward and thrive again.
This meditation guides you through techniques that move the energy of Universal light and love through your body. It transforms and purifies dark, negative energies from your mind and body into the positive, healing energy of light and love, restoring joy, peace, and self-love to your soul and spirit. It also brings increased sensitivity and awareness of the Divine Guidance within you, empowering you to make better choices and have more inner peace, harmony, and self-confidence.

An Inspirational Easter View from Sedona

An Easter reminder:
Like Jesus, you are in this world, but not of this world. At your core, you are an eternal Spirit—
indestructible, unconditionally loving,
and divinely forgiving.

Higher Consciousness Meditation
| |
For many years, Dr. Paul Leon Masters taught students the practice of higher consciousness and mystical meditation in his classes. Being divinely guided, he brought forth many new and innovative techniques and practices of meditation.
In everyday life, every physical perception has other vibratory levels that are usually unperceived by your physical senses. There are vibrational frequency energies on a psychic, ethereal, astral, mental, and mystical level. In Dr. Masters’ voice, there are usually undetected frequencies of high spiritual energies transmitted to corresponding energy frequencies in your own higher levels of mind and awareness, stimulating them into activity.
The higher vibrational frequencies in Dr. Masters’ voice come as the result of years of going into the higher levels of his consciousness during meditation, in which he has personally experienced practically all states of meditative consciousness, which you may have heard or read about in various schools of thought, such as Yoga, Alchemy, Theosophy, Self-Realization, Vedanta, Religious Science, Unity, and Mysticism.
| | We invite you to listen to a 6-minute mystical meditation. | | |
"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."

Transcendent Interpretation of the Lord’s Prayer
Interpretation by Dr. Paul Leon Masters
(Use Daily for Spiritual Attunement)
Our Father-Mother God who is in the kingdom of heavenly consciousness within our minds. Holy be your presence in our awareness. We open our minds to your kingdom of higher heavenly consciousness. Awaken our earthly direction in life to the universal will of your heavenly mind. Give us this day our daily nourishment of the presence of your spirit. And as you forgive us—so in turn, may we, by your presence in our minds forgive others. And inwardly guide us away from all that is not of your presence into your light. For yours is our true inner power and the glory of our true selfhood for ever and ever.
AMEN

An Update and Special Offers
On Your IMM Minister Affiliation

Paying your I.M.M. affiliation is necessary for good standing and is a requirement to validate your ministerial credentials and the use of your degree titles.
Please Note: As of March 1, 2025, the annual IMM affiliation has increased to $97 for one year and $177 for two years.
To show our gratitude and appreciation for your continued support and loyalty and to help you save money, we have added three more options for renewing your IMM Minister Affiliation that you can take immediate advantage of.
1) Three-year affiliation $80 per year = $240
2) Five-year affiliation $70 per year = $350
3) Ten-year affiliation $60 per year = $600
Visit the Online Center and scroll to the Affiliation Payment link of your choice. Alternatively, you may use our convenient, secure payment link, https://universityofmetaphysics.com/make-a-payment, to make the payment. You can also call University Accounting at 928-203-0790 during business hours, 9 am to 5 pm (MST), Monday through Friday.
We send out our IMM affiliation renewal notices three months in advance and follow up with reminders to give our members plenty of time to plan their budgets and to ensure they receive their updated IMM Minister ID cards promptly in case ministerial credentials are required to perform weddings, provide spiritual healing, pastoral counseling, etc. We have noticed that mail delivery is taking longer than usual, especially for our international students. Also, this advance notice is given to allow our members time to activate their ministerial credentials (to ensure good standing with the IMM) if they have taken a hiatus or want to resume their studies. You will find the expiration date on your card.

A recent Trustpilot review by Sam
They are not only an affordable option for those who are serious about their spiritual studies to have a faith based career, but also provide extensive materials and assistance to ensure you succeed in whatever program you choose. I tried a traditional university prior to joining UOM/UOS, and they didn't care about my chronic illness or how it impacted me. At the Univeristy of Metaphysics, they allow anyone, no matter their obstacles, to work at their own pace and feel confident in their studies to graduate. My mom is so happy to be able to see me walk down the graduation aisle. Thank you UOM and UOS!!!

A Google review by Sampath Rani
My academic experience at the University of Metaphysics has been exceptional. Sharing my experience is a Pleasure!
Though the University is far, I sensed a genuine presence on a daily basis. To begin, I took a sabbatical from my personal and professional obligations when I opted to pursue my PhD at this university, as obtaining a PhD degree has always been a goal of mine. I returned to India in 2003 after earning my Master's degree in Biomedical Sciences from Sheffield Hallam University in the UK. At that time, I began applying for PhDs; however, despite receiving a seat back in the UK, I was unable to consider it because the scholarship was quite small and we could not afford to pursue it. I literally forgot about it over time.
Given this opportunity again, with an 80% scholarship, and the fact that I am now a different person with a subject of interest that exactly matches my chosen interest, it pierced my heart, and I chose to go for it with the mindset of "Now or Never!!"
The challenge was not only studying for and passing the PhD, but also going through the full procedure step by step. Yes, first study and pass the B.Msc, then the M.Msc, and finally the PhD.
I only saw myself submitting my PhD dissertation from the day I started with Module-1 in the B.Msc syllabus onward. That means I didn't know I hadn't taken a break from my studies. God's presence was palpable throughout this journey.
Yes, It was Indeed a journey of Self Discovery. When I experienced a setback, Michelle held me, and then Dr. Jordan appeared, leading me wherever I needed support and advice. I felt the same way about everyone I've encountered with at this university; they're all so knowledgeable, friendly, and empathetic, and they're always willing to help and guide.
Thank you, Dr. Masters, for establishing this University for me. And I felt guided by my Heavenly Father in discovering this University for me. Thank you, Michelle, Dr. Jordan, and all of the amazing people at this University.
I've been blessed! I've been waiting to send this review for a while, and I'm glad I finally did.
