AS NEW) ¶ Artist, mystic and writer, Leslie Temple-Thurston was born and raised in South Africa and graduated from the University of Witswatersrand in Johannesburg with a degree in fine arts. With a gift of clairaudience, she was urged by her inner guidance during the height of apartheid in the mid-1970s to emigrate to the United States with her family, including her two young children. Here, she deepened her studies of mysticism and ancient wisdom through meditation, yogic philosophy and spiritual psychology. In the late 1980s after many years of an amazing inner journey, practicing meditation and self-inquiry, Leslie experienced a complete dissolution of her old identity and a profound spiritual transformation and awakening. Currently Leslie is a spiritual teacher to thousands worldwide, helping people to achieve fulfillment and balance and to awaken to the divine presence in their own lives. Brad Laughlin is the Director of CoreLight, which presents Marriage of Spirit seminars worldwide. He has a BS degree from Duke University and has been involved with this work for over ten years, helping to develop the Marriage of Spirit techniques. He lives in Santa Fe, New Mexico. The techniques of The Marriage of Spirit, filtered through modern psychological thought and the author's own life experiences, emerge in an original form designed especially for the more mentally oriented western person. Their aim is to recreate the balance and harmony in the midst of ordinary, everyday life. As the author says, "We have arrived at a new and different time; we are here to enlighten the physical plane, the body, and the personality whil living and working in the world." Marriage of Spirit presents techniques that don't just "rearrange" the ego but help clear it so that the light of reality shines through, and we can live a truer expression of our own inherent divine nature. In a world torn apart by polarization, it offers hope for a third way, the way of unity amidst diversity.
