The story
begins with a life-changing experience at the age of 13.
Those
few seconds had carved out a destiny that would take Ken to places he
never dreamed he would go, and, in those places, to meetings people who
helped shape the person he was to become.
His journey takes
him from Australia, to United States, England, New Zealand, India,
Switzerland, and Germany. An extraordinary journey in many ways, he
learns important life lessons from numerous teachers in a variety of
fields, including social work, Transactional Analysis, psychotherapy,
teaching and writing. He also underwent intense training and guidance
from a Siddha Master, Tantric Master, Vedic Master, and a Divine
Mother, and many encounters are described that arose out of these
contacts.
While in United States in the early 1970s, he trained
with Jacqui Schiff, Bob and Mary Goulding and several other leading TA
teachers. His accounts of the processes at Cathexis Institute are
revealing and interesting. He also describes his work as a TA therapist
and trainer back in Australia where he had to deal with great personal
challenges to do the work itself.
Mellor's first-person
narrative reads like an intimate journal, filled with anecdotes that
present the daily wonder of embracing life fully. He
describes
how every event in one's life can clearly show the next step on the
path of spiritual awakening. His encouraging and entertaining
prose is meant to educate readers, subtly and lovingly, towards
expanded understanding and awakening, and to their own unique destiny.
And this works beautifully.

| Stephen
Karcher has created a wonderful book for couples using the Chinese
Oracle - the I Ching. As usual, the simplicity and beauty of his
writing makes this book very easy reading and wonderfully rich in the
contribution it can make to people who wish to enhance their
relationships with each other. Stephen presents the hexagrams as they
apply to relationships, enabling readers to apply the ancient wisdom of
the I Ching to the complexities of the way we love one another today.
Ken & Elizabeth Mellor joined forces with Stephen to add the
richness of their approach to his. They provided Reflections and
Practices for each of the hexagrams-amounting to about 16% of the text.
As spiritual mentors they have introduced many thousands of people to
meditation and other enlightening techniques. Their experience as
counsellors and psychotherapists and their shared life as a couple make
them particularly at home in the blend of the practical, psychological
and spiritual that is the heart of this way of the lover. |

The Biame Mantra Meditation is beautifully soothing, enlivening and
healing. It helps users to release love, blessings and vital force into
their lives. Profoundly awakening, it helps to mend, unify, align,
soften and make everything whole again. "Biame" is originally an
indigenous Australian word that is said to mean "great spirit". Its
effects are universal and available for everyone, which you can
discover by repeating it as a mantra. By doing this, many others in
many parts of the world have come to experience new aliveness and the
serenity of transcendent energy, and have discovered themselves
becoming grounded or earthed in the world as never before. Initiation:
The process was designed by Ken & Elizabeth Mellor, and
Elizabeth's narration takes you through a simple set of steps that are
designed to initiate you into the mantra. For this non-indigenous
initiation to take full effect, you need to play both tracks, the
introduction and the meditation itself. Thereafter, you can use the
meditation alone if you wish, although it is useful to play both tracks
again from time to time in order to deepen the initiation you are
experiencing. |
