The Unarius Academy of Science, founded in 1954 by cosmic visionaries Ernest L. and Ruth E. Norman, is a nonprofit educational foundation. As a spiritual school, the Academy offers a comprehensive self-mastery curriculum based on the interdimensional understanding of energy—the joining of science and spirit.
Unarius is an acronym for UNniversal Articulate Interdimensional Understanding of Science. Since 1954, Unarius has pioneered a self-healing course in Past-Life Therapy, which has helped thousands of people to live more constructive, creative, and peace-filled lives. This inner-directed study of the nature of consciousness will awaken the individual to previous life encounters, the clairvoyant and creative aptitude of the mind, and the reality of one’s spiritual heritage.
Unarius provides the foundation for personal growth that will initiate a global transformation of consciousness, resulting in progressive planetary changes in the twenty-first century and beyond . . . a new golden age of logic and reason.
