This 3-week introductory course explores three long-established lenses which have proved useful in the process of self-discovery:
- My self, my life, and my world.
- A wider view beyond difference and division.
- An inclusive view which combines both these perspectives.
We will be invited to explore each of these aspects through a combination of discussion, selected readings, poems, mindfulness, and contemporary understandings of mind. In the process we may discover an inner peace and stability with which to navigate difficulty as well as to appreciate our lives more fully. Daily engagement with course exercises is an important part of this course. Please allocate at least 15-30 minutes each day for mindfulness practices.

Beshara Trust Foundation Blended Learning Course
16th October 2026 – 18 March 2027
We take great pleasure in presenting the latest iteration following two very successful previous versions. The course comprises fortnightly Zoom sessions, videos by experienced presenters and various tasks and practices. It opens with a residential weekend at Sutton Courtenay Abbey in Oxfordshire UK, which can also be attended online. There is an optional residential weekend or 10 days at Chisholme House, Scotland, at the end of the course from the 1st April.
The course provides a full introduction to the principles of Beshara in terms of both knowledge and practice. Taking the metaphysics of Muhyiddin Ibn ‘Arabi as a starting point, the course explores what it means to understand oneself and the world in the light of the Unity of Existence.
