This website is under construction. Not all pages
are accessible. I'm piggybacking on the website for Green
World Trust ("Helping People Helping the Planet")
Now I could just as easily call this website
or 
or or
because these are all my way of working with the
situation of
ecological breakdown and spiritual breakthrough
On the Dragonfly Trust website, I describe myself
as very ordinary, fallible, etc; yet here I must also admit to being
different. This seems like a contradiction but it's not. The two
are not incompatible. All my life I've been suffering Asperger Syndrome
(until very recently) and this drove me to find unusual ways of
coping, which was also a blessing because I was opened up to the
spiritual dimensions of reality in a powerful way - the only way
I could cope.
I have been driven on and on, because I felt that
more "power" was needed to redeem and heal the world problems
than I could find anywhere, and I was determined to go straight
to God to resolve this. I attended the Quakers for many years and
steeped myself in their best. I dug out the best of Rudolf Steiner
- I could feel the transformative power of Steiner's vision and
work as much as did Sir George Trevelyan. I encountered the Findhorn
community and felt I would have a similar path to Eileen Caddy,
which happened. But it was not until I encountered H... that
I finally felt I had come home and found the tools I needed to heal
the planet. Many years later, living with challenge at the deepest
level, my experience has not changed. H... is not at odds
with the Jesus I know from my wide encounters and deep questions,
and from many coincidences and outright miracles; H... resonates
with everything coming to light about Mary Magdalene and her true
relationship with Jesus, and there is nothing from the Christian
doubting side that I cannot answer.
I would never have believed this when I started
on my life journey. I started from an utterly conventional
intelligent agnostic point of view. But the more I have lived and
researched, the more amazing holistic, spiritual, scientific, educational,
enterprising resources I have found bubbling up on all sides today,
the more deeply I have cleaved to Spirit, and the more thoroughly
I have become disillusioned with the still-powerfully-influencing
wellsprings and historical sources of the Church - though the Church
still holds, and has always held, remarkable individuals. Jesus
I have always loved, the presence of "the Holy Spirit"
in many churches I do not doubt, and with these, I still hold out
for deep reform and, above all, a "Ministry of Research and
Listening".
*Note: owing to its history of persecution and
current need for privacy, I cannot directly explain my spiritual
tradition but as Jesus said "Seek and you will find".
