The philosophy teaches a personal path of spiritual development which includes a lacto-vegetarian diet, abstinence from intoxicants, tobacco, alcohol and mind-altering drugs, a moral way of life (earning living by honest means, not participating in illicit sexual conducts outside legal marriage) and the practice of daily meditation, remembrance of god by repeating five names given by master(guru) at the "time of" "initiation". There are no rituals, ceremonies, hierarchies or mandatory contributions, nor are there compulsory gatherings. Members need not give up their cultural identity or religious preference to follow this path.
