Social Service Activities
“Think in what ways the group can do service in society.”
The Purpose of Social Service
The WTT strongly emphasises upon service activities together with spiritual practice. Spiritual practices devoid of social welfare have no place in society. Service is the bridge to link up to the higher awareness; it gets you out of your own system into the greater system. For the service to grow, the groups have to go out.
The social service activities presented here are compiled from the Annual Report of the WTT; they might be taken as proposals to commit oneself to service.

The Vaisakh Newsletter
A monthly newsletter named as Vaisakh Newsletter was introduced in 1987 to regularly communicate seeds of Wisdom to the groups. The Indian version is published under the title My Light. The newsletter has grown over the years into a regular periodical covering the teachings of the various Masters of Wisdom. It is published in English, French, German and Spanish and made available also in electronic version.
There are teams of collaborators in Argentina, Belgium, Germany, India, Spain, Switzerland and the United States.

Paracelsus - Health and Healing
Ever since 2003 a monthly magazine has been published in memory of Paracelsus, an initiate of 15th / 16th century. “Paracelsus – Health and Healing” is published on a monthly rhythm in English, German and Spanish, with Master KPK as the chief editor.
The entire production is done by the collaboration of an international team of about 100 group members.
Recording and Transmission
All the teachings are recorded ever since 1983, initially in cassettes and later in CD ROMs. They are preserved in MP3 form and made available online for free. There is a substantial coverage through videos as well. Since 2007, there is an online transmission of the teachings through internet.

Digital Dissemination
To facilitate the circulation of the teachings, the books and other media are made available online for free. The print versions are also partly distributed for free. In some countries members maintain free libraries of spiritual books created by donations of members of the group.
There are also audio libraries with cassettes and CDs of the lectures and seminars of Master EK and Mater KPK.
Websites have been created for the presentation of the teachings and the distributing books. Many videos of the discourses of Master KPK have been uploaded on YouTube.
There are network and communication activities via Facebook, blogs, Twitter as well as via mailing lists.

Publication Group Work
A lot of continuous work is being done in the fields of publication to keep up with the regular activities:
- transcription of lectures
- writing and procuring of articles for the magazines
- translation and proof-reading
- coordination, organisation and quality management
- volunteer training
- design and layout
- marketing and PR
- print and storage, re-issuing of exhausted books
- dispatch and distribution to bookshops, etc.
The publication work finds itself in a deep transformation facing the challenges of the digital word and social networking: Changes in layout programs require acquisition of software and training of collaborators.
There is an upgrading work for digital storage and e-publishing.
