Life

She was raised in a fundamentalist Protestant church being very religious as a child. At 21 an illumination of consciousness descended on her for two days, which changed the course of her life. This resulted in out-of-the-body flights across the world to a place referred to as “Night-School”. There she was taught sacred dances, and later on a body of knowledge that included things about the earth of a cosmological and geological nature not yet known to the physical sciences. In 1940 during an out of body experience, she was shown a place that lay in Central Asia and was called Shambhala. She now believes this opening up of Shambhala to young uninitiated souls led to the birth of the New Age movement of the sixties and to avant-garde scientists who began to revolutionize the physical sciences. During this early period she became aware of her future spiritual Teacher. He was Indonesian and in fact came to the West twenty years later to establish an esoteric movement that taught a new kind of spiritual practice (Subud).

In 1961 she was able to join the Teacher who had been assigned to her and remained for many years in the Australian school he founded. The practices taught, centered on an awakening of spiritual energy in the heart. The physical, emotional and mental bodies are all affected, sometimes dramatically.

From 1964 onward she visited Indonesia for fairly long periods at a time, living in various villages in Java and becoming acquainted with some of its many occult sects and the religious beliefs.

"From 1964 onward I visited Indonesia several times for fairly long periods at a time, living in various villages in Java and becoming acquainted with some of its many occult sects and the religious beliefs, its people have evolved from a creative synthesis of animism, Hindu-Buddhism, Islam, Taoism, Christianity and Theosophy."

For the past twenty years she has moved among a number of other spiritual paths and begun late in life what has developed into a literary career.
