Inspired by the teachings of Vishrant and under his guidance, the Society operates the Mystic Heart Mystery School. This provides a safe environment for seekers to undergo deeper investigation into the obstacles that are in the way of spiritual development and allows the development of spiritual leadership capabilities.
Active participation in Mystery School is encouraged and helps one to develop clarity and insight through their own direct experience, allowing the removal of obstacles to perceiving inherent freedom within.
In addition, the non-profit runs a Consciousness and Wellness centre called Restful Waters in Bedfordale, Perth, which provides community services including yoga, meditation, tai chi classes, events & courses and counselling services. These services aim to bring awareness, calmness and clarity into people’s lives every day.

Like-minded friends often help us presence to ourselves in the toughest and darkest trials of being human. There is great support and nurturing from Sangha members as they have the ability to relate from direct experience. Our Sangha connections can help us to be happier and freer.
The Vishrant Sangha is made up of a diverse group of people from various walks of life. We have amongst us tradesmen, small and large business owners and people with backgrounds in corporate life, psychology, education and engineering, amongst others.
The Sangha is brought together by an interest in Truth, Heart and the joy of being in a community dedicated to seeking higher consciousness and enlightenment.
