His teachings are a syncretic mixture taken from many traditions. He teaches that action is more important than belief, and that many traditions have different theories about God, yet worship or mediate in a similar way. If you do these activities which are similar to many religious traditions you will increase your level of self-discipline, and thus-the idea goes, your happiness. He also teaches that the here and now is paramount. Heaven or Nirvana is irrelevant and that we must take steps to preserve the human race, for example, space colonization. Finally, he teaches that as the consciousness and perception of humans is limited we can never know for certainty about God, so we should remain silent about the topic.
