Computer PK samples – with Hunter Thompson

Sometimes my computer jumps in - not much anymore since I returned to live in North Carolina. But it used to make these variations from what was on the screen all the time, in the 1990s in Belgium. I have been digging into my archives to try to find things to throw away. Mostly I find things I had forgotten about and that intrigue me. Here is a sample of how the computer rearranged a letter I drafted to Hunter Thompson. As always, when I see these drafts, I am not sure whether I mailed this or s...

NEWEST REVIEWS: Keep This Quiet! IV: Ancient Secrets Revealed

The very newest reviews of Keep This Quiet! IV come from two people close to Dhyanyogi-ji. It was very important to me that they like the material on Guruji. Here is what they said. I finally got a chance to read through all of the sections . . . about Guruji [Dhyanyogi-ji] and Anandi Ma and I am blown away! Thanks to Margaret for writing all of these wonderful stories! She is such a gifted writer.—Jan Handel, Dhyanyoga Centers Antioch administrator and meditation instructor Margaret Harrell...

Joy Ayscue: Psycho-active Effect

Keep This Quiet! IV is psycho-active. When I was reading about Margaret’s Buddha belly, my own Buddha belly swelled up. And when I was reading about kriyas, I experienced lip trembling. The author’s love and spirit are so injected into the book that I think it's going to wake people up. —JOY AYSCUE, founder of Wake for Consciousness: Sacred Realms

Review by Martin Flynn

I’ve always found Margaret’s writing wonderfully relaxing and well thought out. This is no different. I can just pick it up and slot myself in comfortably. With each book I find myself getting entwined in the words . . . The life . . . The emotion. The education. The peace.  Her work allows me to breathe and feel. —MARTIN FLYNN, owner of HST BOOKS: A Resource and Bibliography of Hunter S. Thompson's Work

Jyoti’s Review

It’s very timely for me, as I’m about to go through the eye of the needle again. I got excited and intrigued because this is going to be helpful. It just brings present the field of unknowing. —JYOTI, Spiritual Director, Center for Sacred Studies

EXCERPT: Willy Vanluyten – Keep This Quiet! III & IV

Willy Vanluyten, my fifteen-years-younger boyfriend from 1987 to 1991, died suddenly in 1991, at just under 35 years old. Everything around the death was spooky, and the apartment I had lived in with him was more spooky afterwards. Keep This Quiet! III introduces Willy, and the story is carried forward in KTQ! IV. Willy had a short life. He made his livelihood as a truck driver. But he was quite unordinary.  Here is how he entered KTQ! III. He was Flemish. This scene takes place in Tienen, Belgi...

Chris Van de Velde

Chris Van de Velde created "Inner Landscaping," from which his exercises at the back of the book are taken, with his permission. He later went on to join the Netherlands Academy for Psychotherapy in Amsterdam and then founded Numenon Counseling Institute. Chris's advice to me in Keep This Quiet! III was a saving grace, as were the light body courses I also began, the latter in 1992.

The Red Shark and Owl Farm

Here's a glimpse of the classic Hunter car, the Red Shark, gleaming in front of his ranch. This photo was taken by me at Owl Farm in 1991. That story ends Keep THIS Quiet Too! It's told again, with added details, at the beginning of Keep This Quiet! IV: Ancient Secrets Revealed. Of course, there's much more to read, as this was a dramatic visit.

Indian Saint Dhyanyogi-ji in Keep This Quiet! IV

Dhyanyogi Madhusudandas-ji was a Hindu master spiritual teacher - to be exact, a Kundalini Maha Yoga sat guru who "left the body" in India in Samadhi on the birthdate of the Hindu god Krishna—in the summer of 1994. Born in the late nineteenth century, he was 116 or 117 years old. It was well known that Dhyanyogi-ji was a devotee of Lord Hanuman, a Hindu god of service in the form of a monkey. According to Hindu teachings, "When Lord Vishnu incarnated as Rama on earth, Lord Shiva took the form of...
