Your yearly contribution is $120, that’s a love tithe of only $10 per month making your SOMA membership an affordable asset for anyone. Your tithe may help us purchase a van or a much needed printing machine. It may help build an addition onto a building or air condition another. When everyone helps, the dream lives.

We honor our supporters, by offering SOMA members SOM services and goods at a fraction of the retail cost. Frequently, attending one of these weekends pays for your year’s membership.

More than an acronym for School of Metaphysics Associates (SOMA) has its own life and meaning as evidenced in the Vedas of India. Soma is a Hindu god referenced in the Rig Vedas and praised in the Sama Veda. Soma is the all powerful god, the healer of diseases, the bestower of riches, the lord of all other gods, sometimes being identified with the Supreme Being. As a SOMA member, you will want to keep these concepts and ideals in mind as they will enrich your life as you strive to know your god, to cause wholeness and health in your life and the lives of others, to aid others to abundance, and to manifest your own divinity. Soma rules the lunar sphere of the cosmos lying between the earth and the sun."

The precepts of the School of Metaphysics Associates (SOMA) serve as guideposts for living. The idea that each individual was brought into being to reflect superconsciousness, to mature in spirit to become compatible to his Maker is timeless. Understanding and living in harmony with the Laws that govern our universe brings forth humanity's innate potential and encourages us to realize our potential as whole and functioning selves.

Over the years many individuals have shared these beliefs and expressed a desire to support the work of the school. There was a need for a vehicle for those people who wanted to link up with and aid the research and studies of SOM. After the Parliament of World’s Religions in Chicago in 1993, SOMA membership tripled and we began serving people in over 27 countries. The internet aids us to keep in touch with our members and to provide information about SOMA to new people 24 hours a day.

We welcome you to share our ideals, our dreams, our lives.
