Notes to Transformation


1994, 112 pages, cost $AUD.25, ISBN 0646164074:

This is one of the few books to explore the root issue behind man's predicament: As new-born babies are merged with everyone around them they take on their parent's emotions as their own. If mother is unconfident baby will absorb this as an energetic formation or node. These nodes are permanently imprinted long before the baby's mind can work out what is happening, and remain to modify become the foundation of personality.

The implications are very disturbing: the child cannot live his own life, but must include the life of his parents, and since they 'inherited' their nodes in the same way, he is also taking on the life of their parents, and before that of older generations long forgotten.

This book should be a constant reference for those who wish to clear their personal issues in the search for spiritual transformation and inner truth. You can read excerpts from some of the chapters in Notes to Transformation:
