"pTruth"
(Petros-Truth) was an e-mail list that had been in existence between
2000 and 2007. It consisted of simple messages mailed on an irregular
basis. Since the creation of the ewakening now blog (above), it has
been retired. However, hundreds of archived messages may still be
accessed here on this site.

Work
Real spiritual Work is the active pursuit of the spiritual path in the world. It is truly "meditation in action." It is an antidote to the escapist tendencies of individualistic forms of spirituality all too prevalent in the West these days. Spiritual work involves confronting ordinary reality just like everyone else -- but with the intention and the will to transform it into fuel for real inner growth, while making a real difference in the world.
Some “work ideas” (from E.J. Gold) here
Social Consciousness
Growing out of the above idea of karma yoga, we feel that genuine spirituality requires a well-developed social consciousness. Thus, we engage in volunteer efforts wherever needed, often via our sister organization Peoples Mission. All of this social action is not separate from each individual student's own spiritual work; in fact it is essential to it.
Arranging Space

Being a Student
Students engage in dialogue with Petros (e-mail or in person), sit in public Gatherings for group discussion, and live their lives dedicated to the principles set out above. Their main dedication is to their continuing transformation.
If you wish to become a student, please contact us with information about your spiritual experiences and goals, special issues that you want addressed, and whatever other information you feel relevant.
If you have a history of psychological conditions, let us know about it. It should be emphasized that this work is primarily spiritual, rather than psychological in nature, and should not be used as a substitute for psychological or psychiatric work.
In return for their connection with Petros and this work, students are expected to support the satsangha to the best of their abilities. They are also expected to be responsible in their own daily lives.
