Our Mission

The Being One Center for Spiritual Studies and Universal healing is a volunteer-run community of spiritual seekers sharing their knowledge and wisdom for the highest good. We believe in the Oneness of all spiritual traditions. We are all students, we are all teachers working for the light. We believe in giving, service, and building a warm, welcoming community for all people.

We inspire hope and healing while transforming ourselves mind, body, and soul for the highest good.

As an open and supportive community, we facilitate a sacred space for each and every seeker of truth to find the tools they need to heal and grow as spiritual beings of love and light. Our in-house facilitators provide holistic health coaching, complementary and alternative healing modalities, and spiritual development all under one roof.  Together we learn to identify and overcome the obstacles in our lives that prevent us from living a life of peace and contentment.

Our History

Heartfelt Humble Beginnings

After having experienced a major shift in her personal life, Founder and Visionary Ileana Ramos started the Being One Center out of a desire to learn everything she could about spiritual life.  In pursuit of this mission, she discovered the social networking site meetup.com where she found countless groups offering spiritual classes, events, and workshops. After attending several events Ileana became frustrated at the high-cost others were putting on spirituality. This was in direct conflict with her belief that spirituality should be open and accessible to all seekers of truth. Inspired and knowing there had to be a better way Ileana had an idea that would change the course and direction of her life in yet unknown ways.  She realized if she took the money she was spending to attend these classes and paid the speaker directly or asked them to volunteer their time she would be able to offer vital spiritual wisdom to the community free of charge.

In 2013, Ileana began her first meetup group in Bucks County, PA known as “Holistic Life Community” under the umbrella of an organization she co-founded with her sister many years prior called Woman’s Healing Star.  Woman’s Healing Star was a non-profit social services organization that operated in Lancaster County. The mission was to uplift women in need and just released from prison by providing job training and education. Ileana and the former Woman’s Healing Star Organization believe that women are the backbone of strong families, and strong families are the foundation of vibrant communities.

Uniting her passion for Spirituality and Social Service, Ileana rented space in the backrooms of holistic and spiritually oriented stores like Rina’s Rocks in Hatboro, PA, and church basements to provide a Free Weekly Class every Thursday night. These events were open to anyone that was interested in learning about spirituality.  In time, as the community continued to grow a small yet enthusiastic group of supporters began to help Ileana organize larger events including Psychic and Healing fairs.

A New Name with a Bigger Vision

In 2014 a local business owner, Igor, was spiritually guided to find and attend one of the Thursday Evening Classes in Hatboro. He had received instructions to assist the group in its growth and expansion.  After participating in the growing community for a couple of weeks, Igor followed through with his instructions by offering his newly renovated building in the Fox Chase area of Philadelphia for evening and weekend classes. 

It was around this time Ileana realized a name change would be appropriate to better suit the growing community and a more holistic vision of this organization’s future. Ileana, in conjunction with a core group of volunteers officially adopted the name “The Being One Center for Spiritual Studies and Universal Healing.”

On November 1, 2014, The Being One Center officially opened its doors with an Open House Fair to celebrate a future bright with possibilities. The Center started a weekly Sunday Metaphysical Services, Classes on Spiritism, and continued to host speakers at both the Fox Chase Location and in Hatboro.

The Spiritual Synchronicity of Things

Throughout this whole process of expansion, Ileana continued to receive channeled spiritual guidance through her lifelong teacher and mother, Diana Luz, as well as her own dreams and visions informing her of the importance of staying in Bucks County.  Ileana would often protest the advice channeled from the Guides by reminding them how expensive that area was and how difficult it would be to find a suitable location that did not need to be renovated. The Guides continued to tell her, “Have faith. Be patient. Everything will be taken care of in due time.”

Meanwhile, Sam Shelly a gentleman with no connection or knowledge of the Being One Center, received guidance from his inner spiritual practice to create a sanctuary where he could meet with clients in a peaceful setting, coaching them on how to overcome the trials and tribulations of life while offering healing meditations.  He found our previous location of 1330 Eddowes Road in Warminster, PA, and began the long process of renovating and furnishing the space. What was once a drab office in disrepair was soon transformed into a beautiful space for healing and personal growth.

A New Year with a New Start

Back in Fox Chase Ileana and the rest of the organizers began to discuss the possibility of becoming a non-profit organization as well as considering the possibility of finding a new location The Being One Center could call their own.

As these thoughts and ideas began to manifest, one of Sam’s friends Tiffany, began contacting and reaching out to the various spiritual groups in the area letting them know Sam was looking for an individual or group to partner with in hopes of maintaining and sharing the operating costs of the space he worked so hard to renovate. Fortunately for the Being One Center, no one was willing or interested in moving to a new location. With impeccable timing, Tiffany reached out to The Being One Community to gauge our interest in working with Sam.

A few of our main organizers went to look at Sam’s newly renovated space and immediately fell in love with the location and decor.  A discussion began about a possible partnership but the organizers soon realized what was being offered was not what they were looking for. After a moment of thought, Ileana boldly suggested The Being One Center could take over the lease and operate the facility as their own.

After establishing an almost immediate verbal agreement, Sam lovingly handed Ileana a set of keys,  agreeing to operate his sanctuary under The Being One Center name until he left to pursue his dream of starting a traveling ministry.

Just as the channeled Guides and Ascended Masters had promised, they provided The Being One Center with a place to call their own.

Eddowes Road, Forever in our Hearts

The Being One Center location on Eddows Rd. will always hold a special place in our memory. It was our first true home and offered a place of refuge for so many people.  It was a place where Friendships were born and loved ones were remembered. Lifelong bonds were formed of couples that met and later married.

But with all things in life, nothing is permanent. Several months before the worldwide spread of COVID-19, The being One Center was faced with many challenges from the township that until this point had been very hands off. We were forced with a major decision, close our doors, or scale back the success that had been building for so long by limiting our events to a substantially smaller number of people.  

The Being One Center Organizers began the process of negotiating to obtain a new larger space, one that would have provided ample room for growth. Unfortunately, these discussions fell through. Feeling lost, Ileana, as the director of the Being One Center prayed seeking guidance. She continued to search for new opportunities and possibilities. A message from the Spiritual Guides of the Being One Center was delivered through various channels that emphasized “It does not matter if you close your doors or keep them open, everything will change.” In the end and taking a chance, it was decided to close our physical location and partner with Pebble Hill Church in Doylestown to host our events.

Looking at all things in life as a blessing, the Being One Center was grateful that Spirit and Creator worked to create favorable circumstances in which we were able to terminate the lease agreement just before the world shut down.

Living in a COVID World

Just as spiritual beings are continuously evolving, so too is the Being One Center. We are learning and growing day by day, discovering new ways to offer service to the community. At the present time, The Being One Center is planning on launching a series of classes and workshops that are available both in-person and online. As physical space limitations no longer bind us, you can expect us to announce a diverse assortment of classes, workshops, and presentations from speakers across the country soon!
