Letters of the Scattered Brotherhood by Mary Strong

Letters of the Scattered Brotherhood by Mary Strong

This book will be a revelation to all those who search for spiritual strength, for here the authentic ring of genuine spiritual experience can be found. Originally published in a leading religious weekly during the 1930s and 1940s, these anonymous letters have a timeless quality, which transcends and transfigures contemporary problems while answering them in a deeply spiritual way. It has been said that all art should be anonymous, free of personal associations, and so it is here, where - though the approach changes - the wisdom that informs the letters remains the same, communicating a robust discipline along with great warmth and understanding. Each letter is illustrated with a carefully chosen quotation from one of the great mystics or spiritual poets. The result is a deeply satisfying and inspiring work imbued with sensitive instruction and inspiration.

"My favorite book is called Letters of the Scattered Brotherhood, and it's one of those things that I read over and over again and get a different facet of meaning each time" Peggy Lee

Mary began her life as the only daughter to a mother who suffered from Mental Health issues. Unfortunately, Mary's mother treated her, in particular, in a cruel manner throughout her childhood.

The effects of such manifested in Mary feelings of lack of confidence, self worth as she grew into adulthood. This resulted in confusion and self-loathing behaviours. In her early years she experimented in risk taking behaviours, eating disorders and addictions.

However deep inside Mary had self belief that had never died or could fully give up on herself. Outwardly she managed a successful career, a comfortable lifestyle and her own family, but inside Mary bore the scars of pain from childhood abuse.

It was in her mid forties when everything came to a head and Mary finally had her breakthrough. She had been meditating since she had bought her first Louise Hay self love meditation cassette tape when she was twenty years old. She had read every self development book possible and listened to inspirational CDs all those years.

There were ups and downs, twists and turns, and even roundabouts on Mary's journey of self love which has finally now reached its 'manifestation'.

Mary is in her late forties now with a successful career and a mother to her three children whom she believes have been her angels sent to help her heal. It is through them she has gotten to know and experience true unconditional love.

Mary continues to work in the area of Mental Health Nursing. She has qualified also in the areas of Child Psychology, Psychology Of Counselling and Reiki Healing.
