Walking Together on a Path of Service
Book 7 is dedicated to an act of service crucial to the capacity-building process envisioned in the materials of the Ruhi Institute—namely, helping a group of individuals study its main sequence of courses. That individuals accompany one another on a path of service to their communities is central to this capacity-building process. The first unit of the book explores the spiritual dynamics of advancing on the path traced out by the courses and raises awareness of some of the forces at work. The second unit, “Serving as a Tutor of the Institute Courses,” examines those concepts, attitudes, qualities and skills that enable an individual to carry out this act of service, generally by bringing together eight or ten friends in what is termed a “study circle”. The third unit, “Promoting the Arts at the Grassroots,” is designed to create an appreciation for the role that artistic endeavours can play in enhancing the educational process fostered by the courses and in strengthening the patterns of community life to which it gives rise.
