I started my search for something when I finally graduated from the Military and the school of Hard Knocks, looking for something that a Major in Psychology did nothing to help. Looking for that Silver Bullet to help me and others (which of course I never found).
What I did find was Hatha Yoga, which I practiced intensively for 15 years as a disciple of the disciple of Paramahansa Yogananda. I started to find my Self. Yoga opened a new world up for me. Initiated into Transcendental Meditation, I also adopted the practice of Laya Yoga, Kriya Yoga, Yantra, Mantra and Tantra Yoga, Kundalini, Bardo, Guru, Sahaj, The Six Yogas of Nairopa, and Raj Yogas.
While practicing Karate, I studied Zen, a Course in Miracles, crisis intervention, and Lifeline counselling. Further studies over many years included Subud, Freemasonary, the I Ching, Tarot, Science of Mind, Comparative Religions, Regression Therapy (Past and Present Lives), Hypnosis, Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), Transformational Trainings, Psychic Self Defence and Esoteric Healing. I also ran Mind Games Groups, Psychic Healing and Rebirthing Counselling Groups, Energy Healing Groups and Weight Loss (based on the work of Prof Manorama Legha).
Over the past 35 years I have studied and practiced extensively in the Western Inner Mystery Traditions, including Masonary, Rosecrucianism, Christian Gnosticism and Kabbalah (specifically Hermetic) working with primarily Hermetic, Lurianic, Ecstatic and Magickal Kabbalah from source material under a master for the past 30 years. I have consulted for many years as a spiritual counsellor and draw from all these different disciplines; I combine my experience with the principals and processes of both current state-of-the-art “inner” technologies and the science and art of ancient techniques that have been proven to inspire insights and heal inner pain. These experiences resulted in transformational, ontologically and epistemologically based workshops run in Johannesburg, South Africa, entitled “The Art of Winning the War Within”, based on Sun Tzu’s “The Art of War”.
The mind-boggling discovery is that we have spent our entire life suffering from a case of mistaken identity. We think we are our minds.
I discovered it was all an inside job. The worst battles imaginable that l ever fought were between my ears, on the battlefield of my mind, between what l knew and what l felt, between my sub-conscious beliefs and reality. And l knew I had to win this battle or else… l either had to tell my thoughts what to think, and my feelings what to feel, or continue suffering as I had all my life.
So that’s what I did. I started breaking down the secrets that others far wiser than I was had discovered. I chose to start with myself and make a distilled essence of some of the most profound secrets, insights and experiences in recorded history that I had discovered. Those directly from source. Those which had made the most profound impact on me from some of the most incredible minds in history.
And then I integrated them in story form, illustrated with some of the most moving, award worthy visuals and music, to make it easier for you to use them to turn your life around. Should you choose to
