SAPSE's "preparatory school for the soul" chooses the way of integral wisdom which is inclusive in its approach. Its method is primarily dialectical rather than categorical. That is, SAPSE does not view one belief system or wisdom school as categorically the "true one" nor does does SAPSE overlook key differences between them. All of the wisdom paths are partially correct in their insights, but one errs in thinking that any one of them have “the” answer. Beyond this and underlying it, SAPSE envisions the fields of psychology, philosophy, religion, etc. as expressions within boundaries of that which is ultimately unbounded and cannot be adequately conveyed in words or symbols. SAPSE recognizes, however, that the ultimate goal of self-development is beyond the reach of any relative methodology or precise description. SAPSE also makes explicit the demand upon its educators and mentors to be honest about their own limits of personal, spiritual development. There are few who can say honestly and without hypocrisy that they have reached and are established in what is beyond even the imaginable horizon of human potential. SAPSE is as well dedicated to assisting seekers who are members of specific faith traditions in accessing the hermetic or esoteric treasures of their particular religion to the extent of SAPSE's abilities.
