Its core aim is to provide an area where the theory and practice of the perennial philosophy
could be studied in more depth and with a mix of both serious academic and experiential approaches.
Theoversity provides conferences, retreats and visits to places of interest. It aims to
investigate the main areas of human knowledge and achievement as seen from a theosophical
perspective, including comparative religion and spirituality, esoteric science and philosophy
and the sacred arts.
The programme will revolve around four main weekend courses but will also include other related
activities such as visits, workshops and retreats. Each weekend will be organised by experienced
Course Facilitators and include well known experts in their field.
