Like so many of you, I was drawn to Robert Bruce's website by some inner part of me that needed something. Something that would fill the type of abstract curiosity that I am fond of. It is a type of curiosity a person really cannot describe, but rather something like a longing or some force drawing you nearer. Although I did not realize it at the time, I would find the mystery and adventure that so many movies and documentaries contain. I would find that mystical, spiritual, and self-enlightening topic that consumes me.
When I finally got hooked up to the Internet, I fell upon The Astral Pulse almost immediately by pure chance. As I started to read the treatises, the tutorials, the stories, and the poetry I realized this was the sort of thing for me. These things were the things I was longing for yet until that point I did not know what I was looking for. After reading and practicing the material Robert Bruce had been writing, I wanted to know him.
Like so many of you I began e-mailing him with many questions and he replied with many answers. Soon enough we developed a good friendship through the e-mails. For about two years we conversed over the Internet with e-mails and when I decided to take a vacation to Australia, I knew I had to meet Robert Bruce.
In December of 1998, after traveling in Australia with friend for a month, I finally ended up in Perth and met the man behind the Treatise. Although I only had enough time and money to stay a week, I learned and listened with much enthusiasm. Robert Bruce fascinated me and I soon found out what an extraordinary person he was. He would talk of Astral experiences he had and the meaning behind them.
Not only did he talk of the Astral World but also of Higher worlds and the Physical world we live in now. He has many insights to these worlds and his knowledge of them is quite extensive. Metaphysics is a way of life in his home and that really made me feel at home. It was such a pleasure to be exposed to that type of subject matter day after day for the few days I stayed in his home. Metaphysics, though, is not the only thing about Robert that is great.
Robert has a warm personality and does not have an ego of any kind. He is very humble and very easy to talk to. Him giving so much to the Internet free of charge is just a reflection of who he is. Robert is selfless, caring, genuine, and a good human being in general. His sense of humor is wonderful and I instantly clicked with him. He is also a great cook and his curry chicken is fabulous.
Robert's family is just as caring and fantastic as he is. His mum, siblings and children are all great and very nice people in general. The good people also extend into Robert's friends as they are just as welcoming as he is. As I was witness to Robert's world I was instantly consumed by it. I cannot think of a nicer man who is willing to give so much and expect so little. Meeting Robert, for me, was a soul composing experience.
All in all, I wanted write a little bit about Robert Bruce because he is the genuine article. And since I have actually met him, I thought I would share my experience with all of you. I could have easily written a novel about Robert Bruce but I hope that in someway I was able to convey the unquestionable good nature of Robert Bruce.
I also wanted to stress that when you read what he has written you are reading words from an admirable person. I personally feel very proud to know Robert. He has worked very hard to produce his books and tutorials. You must realize that all his hard work has paid off when you read them.
The healing session began at approximately nine in the evening. Over fifty of the participants in the workshop were given the opportunity to be healed by Robert Bruce. Robert began by sitting quietly in a chair with his eyes closed in the front of the room. He appeared very peaceful. After about 10 minutes, the first person was called by an assistant to the chair right in front of Robert. The student was facing the wall away from the class with eyes closed.
