B.O.T.A. has "Open Forum" Groups and Pronaos ritual work in many cities throughout the world. "Open Forum" Groups afford an opportunity to interact with others who share the same spiritual teachings and practices, gaining mutual benefit from the experience of fraternal harmony offered by group work. The primary purposes of "Open Forum" Groups are to foster the development of consciousness as set forth in the B.O.T.A. curriculum, to help incorporate the principles of Ageless Wisdom in everyday life, to enjoy together the operation of the One Will in all the circumstances of our lives, to encourage the development of fraternal Love and Harmony, and to provide an open door to the Mysteries to all who genuinely seek them.

Much of our work on the Path of Return is aimed at extending intellectual awareness and understanding into an emotional awareness that can affect all levels of our being. Group Ritual Work has long been known in the Mystery Schools as a dynamic means of invoking such responses. Ritualistic work in Pronaos uses this dramatic image-in-motion method to aid aspirants in creating effective internal symbolism. B.O.T.A. members who live in areas where groups are established are invited to experience the benefits of Pronaos. It is a valuable adjunct to their independent study of B.O.T.A. correspondence lesson work.
