Overview

Mission

Support the spiritual teaching and spiritual counseling work of Nirmala aka Daniel Erway and his wife, Gina Lake, through online spiritual gatherings, websites, books, online courses, audio recordings, video recordings, and individual counseling/mentoring sessions.

What it reported doing in 2025

Offering spiritual gatherings, online courses, and individual spiritual mentoring sessions in person and over the phone or internet. These are some of the most important ways our purpose is carried out due to the greater depth of teaching and spiritual instruction we can accomplish in these ways, due to the personal contact with individuals involved. This year we have expanded regular online group spiritual gatherings over the internet to seven times a week on every Tuesday, Thursday, three times on Saturday and two times on Sunday, which continue to be very popular. We also offer an online weekend intensive every 7-8 weeks. We also have continued to focus on individual spiritual mentoring sessions held mostly over the phone or internet due to the health limitations that limit the travel of our minister, Nirmala. (Expenses include a portion of the salary and minister's housing allowance for our ministers, Nirmala aka Daniel Erway and Gina Lake, as well as a portion of our advertising expenses). We have had over 15,000 attendees through out the year at our online group spiritual gatherings, and have offered over 100 one-on-one spiritual mentoring sessions. In addition, over a thousand people have taken one of our online courses for instruction in various spiritual practices and understandings.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 70% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
