Spiritual growth and development is that inner movement toward knowledge and wisdom, where we learn to ultimately address, resolve, or transcend our most challenging questions and heartfelt problems. We approach honest self-understanding and self-realization. We come to understand the nature of our primary creative power and how to direct it constructively. We develop our perception of the ultimate nature of life, the meaning of existence, and the qualities of Spirit, God, Intelligent Infinity.
