Solara Institute; Private Memebership Association (PMA)
The Solara Institute is a Private Membership Association (PMA) established under the lawful protections afforded by the United States Constitution, the Utah State Constitution, and foundational principles of private contract law and ecclesiastical sovereignty.
Solara operates exclusively within the private domain, offering spiritual, educational, and research-based services to its private members. It is not a public institution, not licensed by the U.S. Department of Education, not regulated by the Utah Division of Professional Licensing (DOPL), and not subject to public regulatory agencies unless and until such licensure is voluntarily sought and obtained.
Solara Institute’s legal authority is derived from the following provisions:
U.S. Constitution – First Amendment
“Congress shall make no law... prohibiting the free exercise [of religion] or abridging the right of the people peaceably to assemble.”
→ This protects Solara’s right to operate as a spiritually-aligned, membership-based body and to assemble for religious, educational, and philosophical purposes.
U.S. Constitution – Article I, Section 10 (Contract Clause)
“No State shall... pass any... Law impairing the Obligation of Contracts.”
→ Solara’s PMA membership agreement is a binding private contract protected against state interference.
Hale v. Henkel, 201 U.S. 43 (1906)
→ The Supreme Court recognizes the inherent sovereignty of the individual and the right to exist and associate privately without being compelled into the public domain or corporate regulatory structure.
Utah Constitution – Article I, Section 4
“The rights of conscience shall never be infringed.”
→ Solara and its members are protected in the exercise of their beliefs, teachings, and internal governance practices.
Utah Private Contract Law
→ All Solara members enter into a voluntary bilateral agreement, and under Utah contract law, the State may not impair the internal policies, governance, or delivery of services between private consenting parties acting within lawful bounds.
Participation in Solara Institute constitutes the formation of a private bilateral contract between the Member and the Institution. This contract includes the following terms:
Scope of Contract: Members agree to engage in spiritual, educational, philosophical, and research activities governed by Solara Institute’s internal policies and sovereign curriculum.
Waiver of Public Jurisdiction: While under membership, all interactions occur within the private domain. Public regulatory bodies shall have no authority over member conduct or curriculum content, unless voluntarily conferred.
Termination Clause: The Institute reserves the right to revoke membership for breach of contract, dishonor, or behavior contrary to Solara’s internal code.
Binding Nature: Enrollment, login, participation in offerings, or electronic signature constitutes full and binding consent.
All members are required to sign a digital Membership Agreement during course enrollment or community access.
Solara Institute maintains the status of a spiritually sovereign ecclesiastical body, deriving additional guidance from what is herein described as the Federation Celestial Governance Team — a council of non-incarnate intelligence operating in alignment with Oversoul principles.
This governance structure is recognized not as a legal entity but as a protected belief system, and is invoked under:
Free Exercise Clause – First Amendment
Ecclesiastical Protection Doctrine under private religious association law
Voluntary Belief Disclosure Clause – All spiritual cosmology is disclosed as belief, not claim or medical/scientific assertion.
No member is required to adopt these beliefs as a condition of enrollment. Participation in Oversoul teachings is entirely voluntary and operates as protected spiritual expression.
Solara Institute makes the following regulatory disclaimers:
Not Licensed: Solara is not licensed by any state or federal education or health board.
No Medical Claims: Solara does not diagnose, treat, or claim to cure any condition. Teachings are for private spiritual and educational use only.
Board Certification Optional: Where applicable, certain programs may prepare members for external board certification. In such cases, Solara shall disclose alignment to those standards in advance.
Solara reserves the right to pursue state or federal accreditation in the future. Any degrees or certifications obtained prior to that time will remain valid under PMA law and will be retrospectively included in accreditation pathways where legally permissible.
Solara Institute is a constitutionally protected Private Membership Association offering spiritually anchored educational services to voluntary members operating in the private domain.
All teachings, degrees, and community structures are governed by contract law, protected religious liberty, and spiritual sovereignty.
