Teachings

What we teach

Seven fields, one house. The Temple’s instruction is a single work of formation.

  1. 01

    Sacred Stewardship

    The ordering of a life as a trust. What we hold — time, land, knowledge, relationship — we hold for others, and for those not yet born.

  2. 02

    Personal Development

    The inner work of character, discipline, and spiritual formation, so that a person may become a fit steward of their own life.

  3. 03

    Family Development

    The household as the first school of wisdom: how families are strengthened, ordered, and made able to carry memory and care.

  4. 04

    Enterprise Development

    Work as a form of stewardship. How enterprises are built to serve a people.

  5. 05

    Leadership

    Authority as service. The formation of those who will keep a household, a community, or an institution in good order.

  6. 06

    Tribal Wisdom

    The living knowledge of peoples: story, law, custom, and the intelligence of the natural world, received with humility.

  7. 07

    Preservation & Legacy

    What must be kept. How a generation transmits land, language, law, and learning so the next may receive them in full.

Members receive this teaching in courses, papers, conversation, and gathering. The public is given a first word. The rest is held within the Temple, as befits a house of learning.
