About the Author.
- The individual conscious entity that writes these words has long looked into the deeper nature of things. Much reading, musing and contemplation has served to raise many questions in the mind. Meditation has allowed the mind to rest and the inflow of consciousness to impress itself upon the being. The results to date are here shared in the sincere hope that it aids and benefit all that lives. Namaste.
The name is Glistening Deepwater, given as a gift from spirit whilst in deep contemplation several years ago.
Glistening Deepwater is the mother of three children. She could not finish high school due to the deep feeling of alienation experienced whilst attempting to interact with the Australian Education System. She was also unable to fulfill a ‘traditional’ role in society as the system she encountered had no place for a free thinking individual.
Whilst in her teens and early twenties she tried every means of escapism and method of denial available, leading to an inevitable nervous breakdown including an experience of physical death. During the lengthy process of recovery from this shock she encountered the wise advice of an elderly matriarch who suggested that she learn to meditate.
This suggestion lead to an earnest seeking for inner peace and a sense of belonging in the world. So, hand in hand with daily life, the routines of household and roles of parent, provider and support person, she began in earnest to seek a deeper understanding of the meaning of life, the universe and everything.
She was married for 12 years and tried to fit in with social expectation to the best of her ability, burying her true nature and suppressing her urge to express her spirituality for fear of rejection. Eventually this endeavor proved futile with all concerned suffering from confusion and anxiety. She made the decision to be true to herself no matter what the cost, and surrendered herself to the Will of the Divine, allowing her intuitive connection with All That Is to guide her actions and decisions from then on.
Gradually her ability to clarify and understand the true nature of her consciousness developed. The connection she experiences, through the innermost aspect of her being, with the nature of reality has become the primary source of guidance in her life.
In recent times, in response to the perceived need of humanity for clarity, understanding and effective communication, and at the prompting of spirit, she has renounced all attachments to the things of the world and focussed entirely on becoming clear enough to be ‘an effective instrument in the Hands of God’.
…and what an amazing journey it is!
