Core Curriculum
The Seton Cove offers five distinct classes as part of the core curriculum:
- The Enlightened Heart
- Mindfulness: Cultivating a Reverence for Living
- Pathways to the Center: Advanced Mindfulness
- The Imaginative Soul: Cultivating the Joy of Spiritual Creativity
- Personality and Spirituality
These classes can be taken in any order. There is no required progression. Each class has reading and journal assignments, and class participation expectations. These classes are central to the mission and vision of the Seton Cove: providing the solitary searching of the spiritual journey, and the time and space for receiving help and guidance from others.
The Christian theologian, Karl Rahner, says that learning always involves self-transcendence. Learning calls forth what is in us, helping us to move toward authenticity and wholeness. The Seton Cove has developed a series of classes that we believe focus on Rahner’s theology that learning always involves our free self-creation.

The Middle Way: Entering a Contemplative Mode of Being
Contemplation is not the reward of virtue, but a necessity in order to practice it. Both Jesus and the Buddha issued an invitation to their followers to "Come and see." This is an invitation that is still issued to us—an invitation simply to behold what is there before us.
