Peace Theological Seminary & College Of Philosophy
Peace Theological Seminary & College of Philosophy (PTS) is a theological seminary and the educational arm of the Church of the Movement of Spiritual Inner Awareness. PTS was founded by the Reverend John-Roger in 1977 with headquarters in Los Angeles, California in the United States.
PTS is a non-profit organization, offering undergraduate workshops, courses and retreats, and postgraduate programs in spiritual science.
Unlike many traditional theological institutions, Peace Theological Seminary & College of Philosophy is ecumenical and non-denominational and therefore students have varied backgrounds and traditions, including Jewish, Protestant, Roman Catholic, Buddhist and Sikh. PTS’ focus is to provide “educational opportunities that support students in becoming more aware of the Divine in themselves”.
The Peace Theological Seminary & College of Philosophy does not currently offer any courses in what, traditionally, have been considered philosophical topics; such as ontology, epistemology, logic, or metaphysics.

Milo: Third-year girls?
Jerry: Yeah, you know, American college kids. They come over here to take their third year and lap up a little culture. They give me a swift pain.
Milo: Why?
Jerry: They’re officious and dull. They’re always making profound observations they’ve overheard.”
—Alan Jay Lerner (1918–1986)
“While you’re playing cards with a regular guy or having a bite to eat with him, he seems a peaceable, good-humoured and not entirely dense person. But just begin a conversation with him about something inedible, politics or science, for instance, and he ends up in a deadend or starts in on such an obtuse and base philosophy that you can only wave your hand and leave.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
