I have read many
books relating to spirituality during my life, including an intensive study of the Bible. The most important and valuable
book to me has been A Course In Miracles. I believe it to be of divine origin...a profound work of spiritual
truth. It has transformed my life. Therefore I strongly recommend this book to those of you who are sincerely
seeking answers to your spiritual questions.
I am not
a Christian. The New Testament is untrustworthy for the truth of Jesus’ teaching. It was heavily edited by church authorities throughout the centuries to comply with their religious agenda, which
was to strengthen and maintain their power over the people. Although there is still much truth in the New Testament
account, it is seriously distorted by misunderstanding and deliberate falsification. A Course In Miracles will
reveal the true Jesus to you.
"...ye shall know the truth, and
the truth shall make you free." - The Bible (KJV)

My
daughter is a beautiful, joyful, loving spirit. I love her. My happiness is sharing our life together. We
will always be together in the spirit.

The Holy Spirit calls everyone to the truth, but few of you choose to listen. Love
is the truth. You are either motivated by the power of love, or by the love of power. Live in the spirit...relinquish
your ego. Purify your heart of all judgment and hatred. God is Love. It is your holy duty to love our Father's creation...everyone,
every creature, everything. Allow no religious dogma or ANY differences to cause you to judge and reject anything from your
love. The Holy Spirit will bless your life with beautiful and wonderful miracles.
"Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God."
"...I am the light of the world:
he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life."
"Let your light so shine before
men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven."
-The Bible (KJV)
I raised Christine, as a single father, since she was three. She has
been a wonderful blessing in my life. I am very happy she chose me to be her father. She is filled with the Holy
Spirit. Thousands of American prisoners, and others suffering from poverty, have received large quantities of humanitarian
supplies through her charity, which she established in 1998. It is our Father's will we love one another...to relieve
suffering in our human family. Christine is truly fulfilling the meaning of her name, "Follower of Christ." The
Holy Spirit has been performing many miracles through her. She is always joyfully reflecting our Father's love for us.
Her greatest works are yet to come.
The world is meaningless because it is the belief love is impossible. Do not value this valueless world. It will
ultimately fail you. The reality is love is the only meaning. All else is illusion of meaning.
You are spiritually corrupt to the degree you choose not to love. Heaven or hell in your life is your decision.
You must relinquish your ego to live in the spirit. They cannot coexist. Choose to always love in every
situation. A miracle will happen. The truth will free you of your unhappiness. You will be living in the
world, but not of the world.
This photograph was taken by a newspaper photographer when I was 35.
The reporter interviewed me and published a long article about my professional chess career. Also, a television story
was broadcast.
My self-made, extra-large chess set in the photograph is a beautiful handcrafted
original valued at $1,000. The King is 7 1/2 inches tall, and the board is 3 foot square. There is no other chess
set like it in the world.
I taught myself chess when I was 13, and began avidly playing and studying
chess books...particularly many of the published games of Bobby Fischer, the former American World Chess Champion. I
was always victorious against my opponents, except for an occasional rare defeat when I made a tactical mistake with another
strong player.
I love chess. It is a fine war game, very intellectually challenging
and satisfying. It was an important part of my life for many years.
Solitude is essential to me. I have rarely spoken with anyone since 1995. My home is a cabin in the Rocky Mountains
where I have lived since 1985. I am usually always here or camping 1-3 weeks deep in the forest. The common emotional
weakness of loneliness never disturbs me. I have absolutely no social needs. That is my strength...and for those
of you who do, your weakness. I would be perfectly content living in a mountain cave for the rest of my life, never
seeing another soul, except for my beloved daughter.
I have but one Friend. He suffices. The mountains are my holy sanctuary: the forest, sunshine, and singing
birds my joy…the darkness, silence, and stillness of the night my peace. I return to my Self in solitude.
All religious concepts are false. There may be some elements of truth in them,
but it is always a mistake to imprison your mind within any religion. They are all futile man-made attempts to comprehend
God, who is far beyond all fallible mental activity.
Many historical examples of evil have been perpetrated and
condoned by religion. For example, millions of German Christians fanatically gave their allegiance to Adolph Hitler
during his rise to power, the Second World War, and the Holocaust. The pulpits of German churches were draped in the
Nazi swastika flag as pious Christians "worshipped" God, whose representative was Hitler, their "savior." The case for
insanity is very strong to the spiritually insane; it was apparently easy for them to reconcile their Christian dogma with
Nazi doctrine. Only a few courageous German Christians like Dietrich Bonhoeffer, a pastor
and theologian, recognized and actively resisted the evil of the Third Reich.
There are numerous other historical examples of persecution
and atrocities committed in the name of religion, not restricted only to Christianity. However, it has been a major
offender for 2,000 years. Hypocrisy is very common among the Christians. You will rarely
find Christ in their churches. Attendance each Sunday is just an important social ritual for the majority; they can
piously feel good without being good. They proudly claim to be expressing the love Jesus taught us, but
their hateful attitude and behavior toward others reveals their heart. They are spiritually insane.
"Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's
clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Ye shall know them by their fruits." -The Bible (KJV)
Do not imprison your mind within the false concepts of any religion. You
will only be deceiving yourself that you know God. Again, I strongly recommend you obtain and study A Course In Miracles.
This oil painting is the only existing of five I painted at age 20-21.
The other four were unfortunately destroyed. I loved art since childhood, but chess became my dominate passion as an
adult.
I fly the American flag every morning from the pole in front of my home because I am grateful for the political
freedom it represents, based on The Constitution and Bill of Rights.
All Americans should deeply appreciate those who fought to achieve and defend our wonderful freedom, unique in
human history.
Christine is a genius. She has always loved reading since childhood, like her mentor
of many years, Gore Vidal. Her knowledge and wisdom far exceeds most others her age. She has excelled in every
area that interested her all her life. Her integrity, courage, and love of truth is extraordinary.
I listen to classical music for an hour every day as I have my breakfast. One selection, Giordani: Caro
mio ben, invariably causes me to weep uncontrollably. It releases the deep unhappiness I have felt for most of my life
since childhood. I have always felt like an alien in the world. I chose to come here, but cannot remember why.
I forgive everyone who mistreated me during my life. They did not know what they were doing...not
recognizing me as their brother whom they should have loved. They were not in their right mind. Forgiveness is
my function as the light of the world. It is also your function. Lay down your heavy burden of anger and
bitterness. Do not blame and condemn another for their spiritual insanity...they do not know what they do.
