Into the Mystery …

By roger | Published: 6 June 2010
New material is presently appearing a little more slowly at this site. And due to various demands, this situation could continue for a little while. Though I think there might be a few Webbursts coming. (That is to say, in a weblog I reserve for material that is often shorter, more spontaneous and perhaps even [...]

Findhorn and the New Age: Looking Back

By roger | Published: 25 April 2010
For readers new to this space, perhaps it is good if I say again that I am a Catholic convert who once passionately identified with the New Age movement. For many years, I was associated in one way or another with the Findhorn Foundation in the north of Scotland, which numerous people would identify as [...]

By roger | Published: 24 March 2010
The great joys of my life: Marriage. Fatherhood. Entry into the Holy Church … This Church – when exactly did I enter her, I wonder? Was there even in 1997 on the threshold of my 34th birthday, somehow a partial entry into Her Mysteries – when I had a set of unexpected experiences which [...]

Cry from the Heart

By roger | Published: 17 December 2009

Who I am – Some Notes (Part I)

By roger | Published: 13 December 2009
xThere are many blogs where the blogger reveals a great deal of his or her personal life and day-to-day affairs. And such, I am sure is appropriate and meaningful for many forums. I have wanted to do something a bit different here:  to try to address more universal themes, and use the personal mainly for illustrative purposes. But for [...]

A Very Personal and Haphazard Beginning …

By roger | Published: 15 April 2009
Some day, maybe the story can be told. The whole crazy story … or apparently crazy. For now, suffice it to say that this web project is being started in personally very difficult circumstances. Circumstances where my wife Kim and I hardly have a real home, let alone a home with decent web access. Nonetheless with [...]
