About bbrebozo

Born in Toronto, Canada, I am a Dual US and Canadian citizen. Grandfather from Lisnaskea Ireland

I protested the Vietnam War in High School and then in Peace time - other than it still being during the cold war - I joined the US Navy at 32 years old.

I have a BS in Psychology from the University of Idaho 1995.

I was raised an Episcopalian and bailed that in High School In 1971, I joined a new age religion called Eckankar, founded by Paul Twitchell. I followed "ECK" for twenty years. I learned a lot about myself, people and how egos and organizations can morph. I read about, mainly, Eastern religious precepts concerning consciousness.

I eventually grew out of Eckankar and came to realize that it was based on a lie; mainy, Paul Twitchell's lie of Eckankar's origins. I came to accept the fact that Paul Twitchell was a pathological liar and plagiarizer. Over all, I think I was able to benefit from my years spent as an initiate in Eckankar; since after all, Paul Twitchell had borrowed from a lot of other authentic spiritual teachings. I left Eckankar in 1993 as a 7th initiate.

Was I hurt by this path, or helped? I will maybe find out in my life review, but I think grew spiritually from it.

I currently live In Missoula, MT

I am Spiritual but I am not religious.
I believe the source of why we are here - and exist - is to learn and express unconditional Love in greater and greater degrees, as we grow and are able to handle the greater Love current.
