The Study Circle
A study circle for You Are the Center of the World, by Mufti A. Wright Bey.
The book
You Are the Center of the World: Unlocking the Divine Blueprint Within Through the Circle Seven Koran, Occult Anatomy, Seven Seals, Qabalistic Wisdom & Universal Law. A guided study in self-knowledge: know thyself, awaken the light within, return to the divine center.
“You do not need to arrive at this book already certain of everything. You only need the willingness to look within, ask honest questions, and take one clear step at a time.”
“A good circle makes each member more thoughtful and more responsible.” The circle is where the book asks to be read.
The circle
A live cohort meets once a week online and reads the book in order. Each session keeps to a single chapter, so no one is asked to master everything at once.
The seed of divinity, and the practice of Seed, Soil and Fruit. Which divine quality is trying to become more visible through me now?
The body as a temple still being built, and the Temple Walk-Through. What has my body been trying to tell me?
As above, so below, and the Three Circles of Influence. What gift in me is ready to become useful to someone else?
The seven centers from root to crown, kept on this site by the Masters, and the Seven-Center Check-In. Is my spiritual understanding descending into conduct?
Proportion, boundary and rhythm, and the practice of the Point and Circle. What is currently at the center of my life in practice, not merely in words?
Transformation without self-rejection, and the practice of Solve and Coagula. What habit, belief, or reaction is ready to be dissolved?
Rooted in what is true, open to what is higher: Vertical and Horizontal Alignment. What relationship requires both strength and mercy from me?
The Three-Breath Return, and a bonus teaching for students of the circle. What do I need to accept, release, or act upon before today ends?
Each session
Every chapter closes with the same four movements. The circle keeps them as its order of service.
Each session opens with the chapter's teaching in a sentence or two, read aloud together.
Questions from the book, answered in the Center Journal first and shared only if you choose.
Done gently and together. The book is clear: invitations, not contests.
Knowledge that cannot descend into life has not yet completed its journey. Each week ends with one act.
Your own circle
Study with the house, or gather your own circle: family, congregation, friends, in your own language, on your own rhythm. Approved circles receive each chapter's study pack, and their reports appear in the Journal, so every circle can see what the teaching is doing in the others.
A short form: your circle, where and how often you meet, and how to reach you. The house approves each circle.
Your Conductor receives each chapter's study pack: the Return to the Center prompts and a private link to the chapter.
After a gathering, your Conductor writes what the circle studied and what changed, in the circle's own language.
The complete book
A chapter pack carries one chapter. The complete book carries everything the chapters point to, printed and spiral bound so it lies open flat beside your Center Journal.
The reference plates the chapters point to as Student Maps, gathered in one place for studying, teaching and comparing symbols.
The key terms of the teaching defined, with approximate pronunciations for reading aloud in a circle.
The Source-Lineage Map and Timeline, the Scripture and Symbol Study Index, and Selected Further Reading.
How to Use This Book, the Interpretation Key, and A Note on Safe Practice: the guidance for reading the teaching, alone or in a circle.
