What happened to Robert Bruce?

Tom · January 06, 2003, 14:59:05

My guess is that Robert Bruce is busy with his writings, but only in the real world away from the computer. He has at least one book in progress, Kundalini Dynamics. It would be nice to see him from time to time at least, but we did tell him a while back that it would be better for him to write his books for publication and for us to purchase than for him to keep up with the forums. It did not cross my mind that he might leave the forums entirely.

Hey all.

Robert IS very busy. He still drops in if there is something very important to provide advice on. It is nice that his wisdom is being published for all.

Best

A few years ago, I sent an e-mail to Robert Bruce and he actually responded. It was enough to make me happy for several months. There aren't very many authors who have both qualities: (1) something important to say and (2) willingness to share with anyone who asks, no matter how unimportant.

Robert Bruce is a real person? I thought he was a kangeroo!

Tom · January 07, 2003, 06:19:11

Kangaroos must be very intelligent. They are not very common where I live, though. My cat lives with me. He runs my scanner, types, opens and closes programs, and has even shut down Windows. Sometimes he restarted Windows. What bugs me most is his tendency to do these things when someone else is using the computer. Robert Bruce has convinced me that while cats are more obnoxious than most people, kangaroos are more intelligent and more spiritually aware.

Xehupatl · January 07, 2003, 07:05:46

the kangaroo theory isn't half bad. after a full kundalini awakening, maybe even kangaroos can write books that top the amazon-charts

I've found some clues here and there: if you recall in Astral Dynamics, robert states that he (or was it his pupils?) was only able to 'fly' about the RTZ in "large hops";
and he stated that he often has to meditate with the TV on and children "hopping around" on his lap.
next time I see a kangaroo getting a pen and notepad outta his pouch, I'll ask him how Kundalini Dynamics is doing

Tom,
I have actually corresponded personally with Robert within the last 5 months or so and you are so right, he is very approachable and willing to help out people individually, but of course only as his time permits him. I just wish he would drop in sometimes, or more often I should say, like he used to. I bet he will again in the future, when he is less busy with his writing, etc. From what I understand, he takes care of his kids too...and I know that is a full-time job!

G'day Forum Folks!

Thank you for your concern.

No, I have not been abducted by ET's again:)

Those damned probes are a real pain in the butt. . . .

Forgive me, I have not been able to spend the time I would like to on the forums, simply through a lack of time. I love interacting here, but needs must as the devil drives, or so they say.

Here's an update on my situation.....

I am knee deep in my new book, 'Mastering Astral Projection: a 90 day program', and working long hours to catch up, re I have fallen way behind schedule. This will be a 'great' book. We have been offered a contract by Llewellyn Worldwide Publishing, but are still negotiating at the moment.

Kundalini Dynamics is on hold, re I do not have the facilities to continue my high level investigations into such things at the moment. Hopefully, things will improve in the near future. I simply cannot devote the necessary time to this project at the moment.

When I am writing, I get up at dawn and collapse sometime after midnight, when my eyes can no longer focus. This book will be about the size of AD, probably A4 workbook size, so you might imagine the work that is going into it. This will come with a pc CD with some custom made Bwgen presets for use with the program. (see www.bwgen.com) As you might know, I am a single father with school aged children, so my time is doubly stretched.

I still do a couple of hours email every morning, but over the past few months my inbox is approaching 600 again. I could really use a PA and secretary:)

I get onto the forums whenever I can. But when I am writing I generally rely on people to point out posts that I need to attend to.

We are also trying to discover funding, to get TBI off the ground (The Bruce Institute). I have big plans, but it all comes down to discovering the $$$ to get things moving. We have some irons in the fire and, fingers crossed, this will start happening soon.

There is the possibility of some workshops coming up later this year. If
the deal comes off, it will be held at Hotel Costa Verde, in Costa Rica,
South America.

Pretty cool place, aye....

I have no idea how much this workshop will cost to attend, as I've never done one before. I've never even attended one, but from the look of this resort I don't think it will be budget priced. If it goes ahead, it will be a
learning experience for everyone, myself included. But it sounds like fun and I could really use a holiday out of my office. If this works out, I plan to get some surfing and diving in too:)

Our lovely organizer, Maria, is not sure if she'll gather a group of authors and do a mixed workshop thingy, or if she'll do a solo one with myself. We are thinking of starting up a main topic soon to generate some ideas and feedback to help with planning.

That's about all for now....

Take care, Robert.

PeacefulWarrior · January 09, 2003, 14:42:42

I'd love to attend one of these workshops, but on my student income it would be very difficult indeed...and I love scuba diving!

Well Robert, thanks for dropping by...we all like to hear how things are going every once in a while. I don't know about everyone else, but I am still pouring over AD so don't rush the new one out! jk

WOOOOOW!! Looks like I might be taking a trip to Costa Rica!! Those books look absolutely amazing!! Mastering AP.......wow. I have not had the honour yet to read Astral Dynamics. I cant wait. Thanks for all the great work and inspiration!! Hopfully, someday I will be able to come to one of these seminars, but for now I think I can only dream. I had my first AP in 2 months thanks to all your work!! Treatise on Astral Projection is an amazing document, as all of your writings are. Try not to get attacked by a shark this time!!

I love Pink Floyd!!

Robert Bruce · January 10, 2003, 22:13:30

G'day Folks!

Hey, I love the new forum engine; really cool!

Maria just told me that the planned workshops will be held in a new cluster of villas they have just finished building. You should be able to see these somewhere at www.hotelcostaverde.com

If this works out, maybe I'll do a workshop there once or twice a year. Maria and I are becoming good friends and this resort is also a very friendly laid back kind of place. It should be fun, even though I've never given a workshop before, nor even attended one. A learning experience for all methinks.

We'll start up a forum to discuss this, moderated by the workshop coordinator, Maria, in a few weeks time. So everyone will be able to find out the details, as well as give Maria ideas on the workshops.

Maria is currently trying to convince me to fly to her resort to do voice recordings of AD and PPSD. Hmmmm, maybe...

This would be good for me as I've become a bit of a hermit over the past decade.

Take care, Robert.

Dark Side of the moon is one of my faves....

PeacefulWarrior · January 06, 2003, 14:32:14

Once upon a time Mr. Bruce's presence graced the forums...he would often add his opinion to a thread and would post his own topics, but in the last few months he has been absent. Any idea why?
