Words of Support

Before I experienced the dramatic transformation, I had read the New Testament and studied the Buddhist Bible. I really resonated to Buddhist thought. After the healing, I continued to feel at home with Buddhism but gravitated towards 'The Aquarian Gospel of Jesus the Christ' and the deeply spiritual books written by Joel Goldsmith and much later all the luminous works of the Bulgarian Master Teacher, Omraam Mikhael Aivenhov. Books such as 'Cosmic Consciousness', 'The Impersonal Life', 'Life & Teachings of the Masters of the Far East' supported my need for spiritual companionship.

The 'new' me discovered she had many of the magical powers, freedom of mind and renewal of energy experienced by the accomplished ones, Siddhas, of South India and the gifts of the Spirit mentioned in the New Testament. The awakening energy was kept secret except in the area of reaching out and helping others experience healing. I did not have anyone to talk with regarding freedom of the soul, perfect health and immortality all being gained in this life. So, I turned to the Tamil Siddhas in India and Babaji who is considered an immortal master of southern India.
His disciple, Yogananda, and particularly two books, 'Man's Eternal Quest' and 'Autobiography of a Yogi.' I was yearning to find thought and experience that supported my own deep mystical visions and intuitive sense of knowing and being.

The great works of the scientist/mystic/artist Walter Russell and more recently Dr. Fred Alan Wolf complimented what I knew to be true regarding the fusion of science and spirituality. I never had a physical guru or teacher. Yes, there are always the angels and celestial beings but, it was the right books arriving at the perfect moment that helped me understand the daily visions of the Ineffable Light, angelic visitors, healing, geometrical symbols and other amazing blessings that were my primary companions on the awesome journey of remembering and wholeness.
