From a small-town New Jersey girl to a world-renowned new age
teacher, Elizabeth Clare Prophet underwent a remarkable
transformation. At age twenty-four, she began taking "dictations,"
or messages, from a group of saints and sages known as the ascended
masters. By age forty, she was called Mother and Guru Ma by
thousands of followers, and also known as a prophet (her real last
name). She had also begun to be labeled a controversial cult
leader. Now at the age of seventy, she publishes a memoir of her
early years.
In never-before-released material from interviews, letters and
diaries, she explores her spiritual quest from birth through age
twenty four. Part I describes a conventional upbringing in 1950s
small-town America. But, as she reveals, the roots of her spiritual
quest were there from an early age, expressed in childhood in her
remarkable devotion to the proto new age Christian Science. She
tells how her religion helped her to cope with her father's
alcoholism and the childhood onset of epilepsy. Part II reveals her
teenage ups and downs, experiments with Eastern thought and modern
philosophy, and an early marriage to a fellow Christian Scientist.
Finally, she describes her choice to make the radical change of
leaving that marriage to follow Mark Prophet, who became her
teacher and second husband.
The work is threaded with her descriptions of the presence of
God that she believes overshadowed her from the moment of birth.
She tells how that presence led her into a spiritual work that
touched the lives of thousands. This revealing, personal journey
probes the very essence of spirituality.
