Lectures: The main principles of the Master Beinsa Douno’s teachings are Love, Wisdom, Truth, Justice and Virtue. These foundational principles permeate all his lectures, whose themes encompass such an enormous breadth, that it would be impossible to list them here. But in the lectures, the Master gave numerous methods for living a spiritual and morally elevated life.

Paneurhythmy: Paneurhythmy is a sacred dance, where movements, music and text are used to harmonize and balance the man internally.

Music: Music took a special place in the Master Beinsa Douno’s work. Himself a brilliant violin player, he made spiritual exercises after Biblical or his own texts to be performed as songs.
