| One Spirit Learning
Alliance and its Interfaith Seminary, known together in New York City as "One
Spirit", offer one of the most innovative and forward looking programs on the
InterSpiritual landscape, and one with plenty of opportunities for long distance learning.
Founded in 2002 by Diane Berke and Michael
Pergola, One Spirit now combines a two-year interfaith ordination program with supportive
programs in Consciousness Studies and Integral Multifaith, a blend of modern
InterSpirituality and the Integral vision. Frequented by major spiritual teachers
and scholars from many traditions, and supported by a broad-based interfaith community in
the tri-state area, One Spirit also offers certification in Conscious Leadership and
InterSpiritual Counseling.

One Spirit Interfaith
Seminary
One Spirit Interfaith Seminary is a two-year
part-time professional training that explores the worlds religions and spiritual
diversity and supports deep personal growth and transformation. Designed for working
adults, the program leads to ordination as an Interfaith minister in a program centered on
supportive community and an InterSpiritual perspective. One Spirit Interfaith
Seminary draws from the deeper essence that underlies the spiritual treasures of every
tradition, the essential spirituality found at the mystic heart of every great expression
of faith.
One Spirit recognizes that all authentic spiritual
traditions, at their core, are committed to the common values of peace, tolerance,
compassionate service, and love for all creation. Accordingly, the Seminary draws from the
resources of the great wisdom teachings, both ancient and modern, to increase our
appreciation for the diversity of life and to nurture a direct experience of the unity
that underlies it. With an emphasis on community, nurturing practice, sound
interfaith education and sacred activism One Spirit presents a unique opportunity for both
in person and long distance learning.
