Practical Philosophy

The School of Practical Philosophy is a not-for-profit, volunteer organisation. Except for a small, administrative staff, all work and tuition in the School is undertaken on an unpaid, voluntary basis.

The primary aim of the School is freedom, the sort of practical freedom which allows a person to simply be themselves, with the confidence that comes from complete self-knowledge.

The secondary aim of the School depends on the first aim. With the confidence that comes from self-knowledge, individuals use their talents to uplift the communities in which they live. Their horizons become broader, their world larger, their sense of themselves more and more universal.

These aims are fulfilled through two kinds of work: work with and on one’s own self; and work with and for others.

Mindful Wisdom and the courses which follow provide the knowledge and the tools for these two kinds of work, in a step-by-step, systematic and inspiring way.
