Our spiritual home
PhiLuminous Metaphysical Chapel of New York is a proposed interfaith community in formation for people seeking relationship with God, spiritual healing, meaning and connection. We gather through prayer, meditation, sacred study and experiential practice.
Our roots include the founder's study of Kabbalah through the teachings of Rav Michael Laitman, together with esoteric and Gnostic Christianity, Hermetic wisdom and symbolic traditions. Our independent synthesis does not represent or claim endorsement from his organizations or any religious institution.
We welcome all faiths, backgrounds and identities. You may bring your questions, keep your own beliefs and choose which practices to join.
Where Ancient Wisdom Meets Contemporary Science.
Healing, ritual & sacred practice
A faith lived through experience.
Holistic means tending the relationships between spirit, mind, emotions, body, family, community and nature. Our healing practices express spiritual belief and personal experience; we distinguish them from scientific evidence.
Spiritual healing circles
Voluntary metaphysical healing and energy-based spiritual practices, offered with consent, reverence and room for each person's experience.
Mantra & sacred sound
Music, mantra, meaningful ritual, seasonal ceremonies and appropriate initiatory practices led within the facilitator's actual training and authority.
Systemic constellations
Family and systemic constellations as voluntary symbolic spiritual reflection. Impressions are not verified facts about family members or absent people.
Study & spiritual care
Ancient texts.
Present questions.
Our study may explore Kabbalah, gnostic and esoteric Christianity, Hermetic and symbolic teachings, Rumi's poetry and Gurdjieff's writings. We connect reflection with responsibility, compassionate action and everyday life.
For those experiencing loneliness, grief or a search for meaning, we are building a community of listening, remembrance and mutual support.
Your freedom matters
Participation begins with choice.
You may decline or stop any practice. Touch requires consent. Sharing personal experiences is optional; photographs and recordings require permission. Spiritual care does not diagnose or cure disease and does not replace licensed medical care or psychotherapy.
