After reading Lost Horizon, Stranger in a
Strange Land, and the antique book, "the Great White Brotherhood in
Tibet", I realized why.
I wanted to live in a loving world, not a cruel one. Or at least a "spiritual community"
isolated from the pain of the outside world.
I was lonely for
those of like mind – people who were kind, sharing and placed truth and harmlessness,
above selfishness, or a self serving “dogma”.
I started searching for
that. But it was fruitless. I eventually became seriously depressed.
At age 17, minutes before "giving up" and committing suicide, a
strange event gave me real spiritual guidance.
My new "path" took me to an
isolated region of Tibet, where even Tibetan Buddhists were forbidden to travel
(only recently discovered by National Geographic explorers).
There, I found an
ancient monastery and the ultimate library.
Imagine discovering the source of Judaism,
Christianity, the Essenes, Buddhism, copies of the dead sea scrolls, and ancient Egyptian
religion.
But
more importantly, there were those who had attained
true spiritual consciousness, or what some call enlightenment, samadhi, or nirvana, etc.,
Attaining
such spiritual consciousness doesn't just help you, it helps everyone you
meet - and the
entire world. A candle lights other candles, and they light others, etc. Like
the movie "Pay it Forward", but more so.
The
"candles" (teachers) at the monastery, were ones who had been handed
down teachings generation after generation, and were "lit" by other
candles generation after generation, over thousands of years, by survivors of a
spiritual order from Atlantis, where it all began.
All my questions were finally answered, and my
searching over. But my spiritual journey had really just begun. I didn't fit in
yet.
The
trouble was, I didn't know yet that we always
live with those of "like mind". And that to live amongst
unselfish, compassionate people, you had to BE one of those kinds of people too.
I was still just a selfish "wanna be", with spiritual goals, yes, but a
lot of work to do.
If
you want to change your life, your friends, environment, whatever, all you have
to do is change your self, and everything around you will change to match,
automatically. Like salad dressing, oil goes to oil, vinegar to vinegar.
So
before even becoming a student, I had to have humility, commitment, and
"REALLY want to change". And to live with the truly loving,
caring, harmless, compassionate beings, I would have to work hard to become one.
To help you
find everything you need for
attaining true spirituality (if that's what you really want), we offer a "buffet" of free
online meditation instruction, free online spiritual book chapters, tools, and

truths I did. Try the free chapters of The Children of the Law of One™ & the Lost Teachings of

they were searching for it their whole life, and found the teachings as
