Economist, engineer, generalist and mystic, Shamcher Bryn Beorse, reveals his comprehensive overview of the forces and influences shaping humanity in the latter half of the 20th century. Concerned with the fate of the earth environmentally, socially and politically, he offered both advice and warning, peppered with personal anecdotes. The cry of mother earth, the complexity of social issues, and the needs and desires of human beings living in this world today all combine in Beorse's bird's eye view.This expanded and all-inclusive vision of the cry of the earth is as important today as when it was written nearly 40 years ago. What seemed radical at that time is commonplace today - an awareness of the totality of the environment including ourselves as well as the development of the inner life. In Beorse's world-view there is no separation between the areas of energy, economics, employment, the individual's pursuit of happiness and his own personal life-experiences. He subtly includes the spiritual life, touching on yoga and Sufi thought and practice as necessary and meaningful tools to address our current problems - not only at a personal level, but in the areas of city life, the environment, education and the media.It was his love of this life and of this precarious human experiment that urged him to write and add his voice to the increasingly urgent call of our planet."Planet Earth, itself, now demands what the sages and prophets shouted in vain."Book website at planet-earth.shamcher.com

An understanding of the elements as a foundation for mystical study can be seen in all major traditions around the world. In the Eastern yoga and Sufi traditions and Western mysticism, the elements are key to knowledge of awareness of breath and the manifestations of life. This book involves an examination of the elements as outlined in the Sufi teachings of Pir-O-Murshid Inayat Khan, and in their relationships demonstrated through the Sacred Element Ceremony. It was written as an exploration and selfstudy. A cohesive spiritual alchemy of the present times is expressed in the Sacred Element work and the depth understanding of the five elements. Presently, the yearning for spiritual understanding has shifted in North America to become a desire to go to the root of things. Sacred Element work reveals itself to be a mature western version of one such root teaching, through which the spiritual life of humanity can be renewed. INSIDE: - An examination of the elements Earth, Water, Fire, Air, and Ether as seen in direction, colour and breath. - A connection between the Greek Mysteries and the work of esoteric symbolical activities. - Reflections on the Sufi Element Ceremony and its value as a harmonizing influence in these times. - An awakening to the retrieval of element understanding that has been lost down through the ages.

This book of letters reveals an intimate and unique relationship between a teacher and pupil on the Sufi path. A contemporary western mystic, Shamcher Beorse had been a pupil of the great Sufi, Pir-o-Murshid Inayat Khan in the 1920's. Carol Sill was a young beginner on the spiritual path, grieving the sudden death of her only son. Fly along as Shamcher intuitively guides her through the winding routes of Love's progress, growth and development. With Shamcher by her side she opened to a world that had been previously closed to her. Share her discoveries as a dazzled and astonished neophyte. This process of inner development is all documented through the original correspondence. Read this book as it was written: as an unfolding correspondence of the soul.Praise for LETTERS"Intimate" "Symphonic" "Beautiful" "My heart thanks you""The relationship between spiritual teacher and student is uniquely intimate and mysterious. It calls upon us to expand our limited definitions of love, lovers and the Beloved. In "Letters", we are invited to witness such an expanded love relationship between souls. The discourse is deeply personal and yet the wisdom transmission between teacher and student speaks to each of us and is universally accessible. Akin to the poetry of Rumi, the Shamcher letters present Sufi themes that ignite the mind and heart, without the distraction of religious dogma. Given that Carol met Shamcher in the wake of her profound personal loss, Letters is also a story of a soul's healing journey and evolution through the gift of loving spiritual friendship. I feel deeply appreciative and ignited by Carol's book and recommend it highly to seekers of love harmony and beauty everywhere." - Nancy Mortifee "This letter book is in many ways a unique experience - the training of a Sufi mystic in a unique way. And, in other ways, it's universal. It shows a heart yearning for healing and happiness, and the path that she (Carol) found that gave her healing, happiness, and spiritual connection to the Divine in simple and surprising ways.I loved this book, and I suspect you will too." Jim Arthur"This correspondence reveals the moving inner journey. For the Sufis, spiritual love between teacher and student is a most sacred place, where both can taste the Divine Presence. We feel how this special love guided, nourished and fortified this young woman, and how it answered the pain of her heart as she learned to open to the wings of her soul. With these "soul memoirs", we can understand and feel the path of the Sufis, a path traveled in love, harmony and beauty towards truth." Marielle Geoffroy"What an extraordinarily sensual and rich love relationship, one based in spirit, yet somehow connecting heaven to the earthly longings of the heart. The rare and perfect timing of how the beloved teacher/friend appeared at the precise moment of your greatest need is exquisite. To see how the power of that love held and helped heal the pain of your horrendous loss is deeply moving. 'Letters' holds a gift for those who find themselves among spiritual seekers of any age, land or tradition." Ann Mortifee and Paul Horn"As with the love of Rumi for Shams of Tabriz, Carol Sill's sufi friend Shamcher opens her heart more and more until the love fills us, the readers, with the same essence of joy and awe. It is a gift of grace to experience such a deep love in a lifetime and another gift of grace to share this love with the world. Although these letters capture a moment in time years ago, they are timeless in the message of the various ways to love without bounds and, are lessons that each of us can benefit from today, here and now." Tanis Helliwell"The book unfolds a grand adventure of mystical awareness, as student and teacher find each other and share the deepest vibrations of the heart. Through the publication of these letters many new seekers will have their questions answered. Highly recommended." - Carol Sokoloffwww.letters.shamcher.com

Documentary Print includes THE SOCIAL RESEARCH FOUNDATION INTERIM REPORT DOCUMENT ON LIVING IN THE FUTURE and THE HILL TRIBE REPORT "I was writing this at a cusp of societal change, when the introduction of the computer society was about to enter the personal realm, radically reorganizing everyone's way of life. I see it as a cry of the heart as it is being submerged by the analytical and ultimately bureaucratic forces of that coming new era." - Carol Sill HIGH GRADE INFORMATION Those who read Social Research report documents such as this tend to search for high-grade unused information which has not yet been attractively packaged. Nevertheless, this particular document is, in fact, ushering in a new era of report documentation, particularly as it applies to the Social Research field. No longer will the social researcher be taxed with pages of undigested data. By taking a comprehensive subjective view, the SRF has leapt into the wide new field of Personalization. This affords vast resources of data, already attractively packaged in a personalized form. Thus, subjectivity creates high-grade information. Even when the original data sources are "common knowledge" personal filtration of Social Research data transforms low-grade multi-use information into high-grade "special interest" information with the bonus of attractive packaging. Recycled informational components can reappear again and again without causing Fresh Mind Exhaustion thanks to the personalization of the subjective view. - from The Social Research Foundation Interim Report Carol Sill wrote this book episodically and by hand in the early 1980's, before the personal computer, well before the internet's world wide web, and long before blogs and the rise of social media. It was intended to be a real-time document of interior processes, with a few excursions into description of exterior events. It is published here as it was originally written. Over the years this odd document has proven to be somewhat prophetic, predicting, the rise of individual and public reporting on an unimagined scale via social media. Maybe researchers did enter the future! It was those resonances, combined with a desire to share this writing, that encouraged this edition. In 1985 Sill self-published a photocopied version with hand-stitched binding, but, like the SRF documents described in the book, the few that remained were stored for years in containers, unseen.

Through Every Willing Hand we glimpse an extraordinary worldview, a simultaneous multiverse of intimate interconnection. A contemporary mystic, Shamcher Beorse views this vast scene through a lens of economics and full employment. He reveals artfully interwoven themes that all work together to show a complex picture of the forces and influences at play, including visualization, intuition and meditation. Shamcher had great compassion for those who are "half awake in the body of humanity," and he worked tirelessly to expand horizons for all individuals and communities. In one glance the book reflects innumerable facets of our social communities and individual aspirations, all in the context of the need for social reform. Where does he suggest this reform comes from? Not from a revolution in the streets to restore or establish fair and equal opportunity, but from an implemented program ensuring full employment for all who want it.More info at the book website: http: //www.every-willing-hand.shamcher.com
