The essence of Coptic teachings is that Truth is Universal. Although it may be spoken in different languages by different races who have different philosophies (different methods and techniques), Truth is always the same.
Humanity cannot change Truth, as Truth is superior, being the ultimate goal of realization. It shines in every direction and can be realized from all directions. The Truth speaks for itself, but is demonstrated only through actions.
It is the intent and purpose of the Coptic philosophy to clarify the importance of the role of the individual and group in our world. Through it we learn to give active expression in the balancing of the four-fold unity of our identity, the unity of body, mind, emotions and soul.
