Cultivating the Self

Changing ourselves is the first step towards making a difference in the world. Interior development and self-mastery over our inner world is the essential foundation toward living a meaningful and creative life. To cultivate the self, we will suggest practices that help overcome habitual patterns of the mind, increase emotional and social intelligence, and refine more positive means of conflict management and communication. These practices can help us develop intuition and align ourselves with the evolutionary direction of the Kosmos.

The spiritual traditions recommend a three-fold approach to creative living: meditation, study and service. Kosmos recommends individual interior practices, being informed, and using your unique gifts to be of service to the world. At this time, true service involves a systemic transformation of ourselves and our institutions in order to create a humane, equitable and sustainable global civilization. This is the essence of Kosmos.

On this page, Kosmos editor Nancy Roof, who was one of the founders of Transpersonal Psychology and a psychotherapist and spiritual guide for many years, will soon share her guidelines for interior development to support you in your path from personal to planetary transformation.
