As nothing happens by coincidence, the author first took breath on the 13th day of Spring - the number 13 symbolising transformation and Spring being the season of rebirth. His grandparents, who raised him, lived in house number 13. His mother remarried on the 13th day of the month. He turned 13 years of age on a Black Friday. His first love lived in house number 13 and his only relationship partner also had their birthday on the 13th of the month.

After his Dark Night of The Soul experience, and many, many 'light bulb' moments - he realised he was onto something but still didnt know as yet where it would all lead. So he asked The Universe "Show me in a way that I can impart this to others?" He then had life experiences he hadnt had before, and contemplated their meaning by the practice of asking and receiving. In 1996 he had the Theory of Everything revealed to him; in 1997, he met his essence twin; and in 2012 after an 18 day fast it was revealed to him who he was in a previous life. It was whilst living on The Mountain that he, quite literally, allowed the mystery of who we are, to be revealed to him ~ and now to us.
