William Meader is a teacher of the Esoteric Spiritual Tradition. He is coming to New Zealand from America in September. He will be

His website www.meader.org will give you information on his
background
as a teacher of Esoteric Spiritual Tradition.
William Meader - Biography For more than 20 years, acclaimed author William Meader has been a
student
and teacher of the Ageless Wisdom (also known as the Perennial
Philosophy). From his remarkable insight into creative living, he has
become internationally renowned for clarifying the spiritual purpose
of
life to countless numbers of people. He does this by teaching the means
to
recognize the soul deep within, as well as by providing methods to
more
effectively express the soul in one’s daily life.
At this critical time in human history, William emphasizes the
importance
of becoming the “Practical Mystic.” To him, a practical mystic is one
who
is inwardly conscious of his/her soul (and its intention), while at
the
same time outwardly contributes to humanity’s upliftment. Practical
Mysticism is an approach to spiritual living that blends the mystical
dimension of life with reason and practical action. As an
exemplification
of the Practical Mystic, he shows how this approach to spirituality
is
possible for everyone. This type of inspirational teaching has gained
him
widespread recognition.
In addition to his dedicated spiritual service, William Meader has a
degree in Business Management, an advanced degree in the behavioral
sciences, and several years experience as a psychology professor. He
also
has experience as a business educator, offering a variety of staff
development seminars and workshops to the business community.
He
currently teaches and lectures in the United States, Europe, Canada,
Australia, and New Zealand. He lives in Oregon.
The Soul and Its Nature When walking upon the spiritual path, an understanding of the nature
of
the Soul is paramount. This talk is an introduction to the subject of
the
Human Soul as understood within the Esoteric Tradition. In it we will
examine the origins of the Human Soul and the stages it will go though
as
it evolves over the course of countless incarnations, Also discussed
is
the ancient lore regarding the formation of the causal vehicle, which
is
the subtle body that the soul expresses itself though. The great
battle
that is eventually waged between the Angel of the Presence (the Soul)
and
the Dweller on the Threshold (the personality), is examined as well.
This
inner conflict occurs on several levels, each of which will be
considered.
