My meeting Robert Bruce was, like everything else, part of the master plan created in the spiritual world. I cannot remember exactly how I met him via the Internet some dozen years ago, but it was when he was at work on his first book, Astral Dynamics. During the time he was writing the tome, we discussed many things. As an Australian, he knew a lot to tell me about Aborigines and telepathy, one of my great interests. Eventually, we began to discuss more than NDE, OBE and astral projection, we talked quite a bit about the spirit and consciousness. At one point, Robert asked if I would be willing to write a chapter on consciousness and the seat of the soul. He wanted to use this in his book. I agreed.

I thought little of it until a few years later when his book was about to go to print by Hampton Roads. I received a note about 9 years ago:

“Mate, remember your offer of writing an appendix for my book? About the location of consciousness and the seat of the soul?”

“Sure do!” I replied.

“Well, I could use it very soon as Hampton Roads is about to publish my book.”

I can say this now as a new author: finally, after many years of hard work, it is thrilling to see my book in print by a mainstream publishing house. I know he felt.

At the time of this second request, I was in the midst of writing my book. I had no problem stopping and taking three months to review current and past theories on consciousness and prepare an appendix for Robert’s Astral Dynamics.

As fate would have it, Robert sadly replied that his publisher nixed the idea as his book was massive. I have publisher and author (and now friend) Frank DeMarco. Robert gave me permission to use the appendix for my book, Medicine, Miracles and Manifestations.

Since then, Robert has gone on to write several more books, expounding upon concepts in his first book and more. In the above-mentioned appendix, you will read about Mr. Bruce and his development of New Energy Ways.
