Become a Dhammunist

Embarking on the path of Dhammunism is a profound commitment to spiritual growth, self-discovery, and connection with the Supreme Person. Whether you're drawn by curiosity, personal transformation, or a deep spiritual calling, the International Dhammunist Society welcomes you.

What Does It Mean to Be a Dhammunist?

A Dhammunist is someone who practices the path of spiritual awakening rooted in ancient wisdom while embracing modern understanding. It means dedicating yourself to understanding the true nature of consciousness, the material world, and your relationship with the Supreme Person.

Being a Dhammunist involves:

  • Regular meditation and mindfulness practice
  • Studying sacred texts and spiritual teachings
  • Living ethically and compassionately
  • Cultivating devotion through bhakti (devotional service)
  • Participating in community gatherings and spiritual practices

The Path of Practice

Dhammunism follows a systematic path of development through nine stages, beginning with faith and culminating in pure love. Along the way, practitioners develop wisdom, ethical conduct, and meditative concentration.

Core practices include:

  • Vipassana (Insight Meditation): Developing clear seeing into the nature of reality
  • Manji Yoga: Physical practices for bodily restoration and health
  • Plant-Based Living: Compassionate lifestyle choices
  • Devotional Service: Cultivating love through service to the Supreme Person
