The
Harmony Institute
The
Harmony Institute explores and promotes the common core teachings
of all the religions. The Harmony Institute seeks to attain these goals by conducting objective
research, publishing books and documents, and establishing educational
programs that focus on the similarities and common bonds between
the world's religions.
We believe the world would be a more peaceful place if more people
realized how much the religions agree and share.
In an effort to make these concepts accessible to as many as people
as possible, the information and programs produced by the Harmony
Institute are targeted at the general public. Our goal is to make
this information as objective, logical, and easy-to-understand as
possible.
The Harmony Institute has an ongoing and ever-changing list of programs
and projects to support these goals.
Projects
New Book explores the common core teachings of the world's religions
Our first major project is the publishing of a book,
 The Message That Comes From Everywhere:
Exploring the Common Core of the World's Religions and Modern Science
This book discusses the similarities between the world's religions,
and further shows parallels between religion and modern science.
The book attempts to bring these parallels to light in a simple and
understandable way.
It shows how the world's religions, including Buddhism, Hinduism,
Taoism, Confucianism, Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Bahai, and Indigenous,
are in agreement on the most important questions.

Ongoing Peace Projects
The Harmony Institute finds that the study of the common teachings
results in opportunities for Peace, both inner and outer peace.
Inner Peace
All the religions and modern science agree, that we can follow
certain instructions and follow a path towards attaining
inner peace. Compassion
for other beings, prayer and meditation, self-hypnosis, inner
searching, and study, are examples of instructions that all the
disciplines
agree are helpful in pursuing inner peace. The Harmony Institute's
founder, Gary Beckwith, is a Certified Hypnotherapist and a
student of the power of the human mind.
Outer Peace (World Peace)
One of the greatest effects of studying the common teachings of
the world's religions is the realization that they are all connected
and compatable with each other. While religion has been used as
an
excuse to kill and cause wars for centuries, the world will some
day (hopefully soon) realize that religion can also be used to
connect, heal, and realize our common bonds with all cultures
of the earth.
