The CIHS is a graduate school that has a transpersonal and philosophical orientation. It was founded by a Japanese scientist who wanted to bring science and spirituality together. He was a scientist and Shinto priest. CIHS’s three degree programs are integral health, integral psychology, comparative religion and philosophy. Members are looking for ways to interface with the larger city so that interfaith work has an impact beyond the school and has larger connections. They expect this to happen through faith communities or through other community events. They plan to have education and networking meetings and a “spirituality and arts” program that is going to tap into some of the beauty of the different wisdom traditions.
