Dr. Wilma Waithe is an enthusiastic student of Truth with over 15 years experience leading and facilitating discussions in basic truth principles. Still, to hear Wilma tell it, her recent reconnection with the Center for Spiritual Living and Science of Mind teachings, is about self-renewal: a lifetime of opportunity to continue the fascinating exploration of what life and the inner vitalizing energy is really all about.

" Sandesh was born and raised in an Indian Liberal Hindu Brahmin Family. His original spiritual influence came from his Grand father who was a prominent lawyer and a Theosophist, his Aunti was a sanyasin(monk) and had an ashram in Alandi, near Mumbai. In spite of being surrounded by several guru's, swami's and yogis he was always questioning and challenging many of the spiritual doctrines. Part of the answer to yogic abilities(Walking in Fire/lying on bed of thorns) he found in learning scientific hypnosis as taught by Dr.Milton Erickson. After arriving in the US he was attracted by the New Thought movement (Religious Science and Unity) and found great comfort in many of their principles and practices. He also regularly participates in Mindfulness Meditation as taught in Buddhist traditions."
Joe is a medium,psychic, healer and spiritual teacher. He grew up in Lynn, Ma. Graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy in 1967. Embarked on a career in sales starting with IBM and Smith Corona Marchant. His career included a number of years in sales management. A promotion to management was the cause of his move to Albany.
A healthy skepticism prevented investigating the belief in the spiritual or paranormal. In the mid seventies, reading and a degree of open-mindedness led to a desire to explore the potential of consciousness. The result was the founding of an organization called The Foundation for Spiritual Evolution, which was committed to helping others discover the amazing potential that exists in all of us. He has just founded a new group called The Kingdom Of The Spirit. The organization is dedicated to the service and education of all who desire spiritual growth.
For over two decades, David Ferguson has been devoted to the study and application of Metaphysics, Science of Mind and related philosophy. He started his studies as a student at the School of Metaphysics in Tulsa, Oklahoma and was a student teacher there in the early 1980’s.
His passion for this philosophy enables him to lead lively and fun study groups. He also has a love and talent for writing metaphysical rhyming verse and loves to teach and share his knowledge of spiritual principles to everyone. He has been an active member of two Science of Mind Centers. David currently serves as the President of our Board of Directors.
