Ian Gardner
Ian Gardner was born on the 20th February 1934 in Sri Lanka, then Ceylon, and christened Basil Ian Gunewardene. He was born two months prematurely and nearly died five times in his first two months. He moved to Australia in September 1969 where he changed his surname to Gardner. From childhood, he had an enquiring mind and an innate interest in the supernatural. Since 1986, nineteen years of regular periods of meditation, "searching within", reading and revelations have culminated in this free book which has been nine years in the making. Further writings followed and all his writings are available to all on the Internet free of charge. There is more information in the preface of the book. February 2020. My search - my journey, is now complete.

Scrutinise your attitude towards all other fellow beings and all other things; the honest result indicates where you are on the spiritual path.
Spiritual Progress and Observing Life.
[Missing from between 04.01.11. ”Hope” and 05.01.11. ”The Pendulum Swings”] With spiritual progress one is able, in due course, to walk alongside life looking in with non-attachment. This brings peace of mind.

The Paradox of Soul Growth.
Paradoxically, the growth of the Soul results in its elimination but with the fruition of the Spirit in all its glory.
The Jellyfish.
Observe the jellyfish swimming in the ocean. Compared to the drift of the current its efforts are minuscule. So it is with the efforts of the Soul – despite its efforts it goes with the flow.
Spiritual Growth and Attitude.
The only thing involved in one’s spiritual growth is one’s attitude – the continual improvement of one’s attitude. Knowledge of material things is irrelevant, merely of intellectual interest to some.
