About Science of Spirituality

A global non-profit organisation dedicated to meditation, peace, and service

The Global Organisation

Science of Spirituality is a global, non-profit spiritual organisation under the leadership of Sant Rajinder Singh Ji. We are hundreds of thousands of people of all nationalities, races and faiths deeply committed to a spiritual way of life based on meditation, service to others, and personal transformation.

If one were to summarise the mission and goals of Science of Spirituality in a few words, those words would be spirituality, peace, and service.

With headquarters in Delhi, India, as well as a main centre in Chicago, USA, there are over 3,400 centres in more than forty countries. It offers people all over the world an opportunity to find peace, joy, and spiritual fulfilment.

Teachers of Science of Spirituality present a simple and natural method of meditation leading to inner and outer peace. It provides a means whereby people of all ages, religions and nationalities can integrate meditation into their lives. This practice has been referred to as Surat Shabd Yoga, Sant Mat, or meditation on the inner Light and Sound.

Core Principles

  • There is one God of all creation
  • The true purpose of life is to reconnect with the soul
  • A competent teacher speeds our progress
  • Meditation is the surest way to spiritual growth
  • Spirituality is life-affirming

Run by Volunteers

No one at Science of Spirituality receives a salary or compensation for their services. All events and programmes are free and open to all.

Personal Transformation

Practitioners learn how to develop noble human values that will transform and enrich their lives, enabling them to make positive contributions to the world.

Practising the Sant Mat approach to spirituality does not require leaving one's faith, for at the core of each faith, we believe, is the one divine power that is the common goal of all spiritual aspiration.

Raising our consciousness to experience God's Light within ourselves is the primary mission of Science of Spirituality. It is this practical experience of oneness — of ourselves with God, and of all beings with each other — that leads to true peace and fulfilment.

Science of Spirituality couples a powerful meditation practice with a dynamic, inclusive and positive way of living. People are often attracted by its simplicity, integrity, and effectiveness in fostering real spiritual growth.

Registered Charity No. 1096502

In Birmingham and surrounding areas, regular gatherings have taken place for the past 40 years. In the early days the gatherings took place in local hired rooms within schools, universities and hotels.

In the year 2003, we became a registered charity in the UK. We also held a major tour programme with spiritual talks given by Sant Rajinder Singh Ji. Hundreds of people gathered from across the country and abroad.

In 2011, we were fortunate enough to purchase our very own building in Edgbaston, Birmingham. This Meditation centre lies next to the scenic Birmingham Reservoir, minutes from the city centre.

In October 2011, the centre was inaugurated by Sant Rajinder Singh Ji. Once again, hundreds gathered for the public talks, nearly 250 from Europe.
