James Hurtak is an American social scientist, comparative religionist, scholar, author, and founder and president of The Academy for Future Science. He is author of over 15 books, including commentaries on ancient mystical and gnostic texts such as the Pistis Sophia.

Former professor at California State University, Northridge and California State University, Los Angeles, his educational background includes a Ph.D. from the University of California, Berkeley and a second Ph.D. from the University of Minnesota. He was technical consultant for Sidney Sheldon's bestseller, The Doomsday Conspiracy (1991). He has spoken before professional audiences throughout the World, speaking in Africa, South America, Europe, and the Pacific. In the capacity of a scientific consultant, he has been featured in numerous film documentaries, and has appeared on international television programs.

Hurtak is best known for his book published originally in 1973, entitled The Book of Knowledge: The Keys of Enoch where he claimed to receive knowledge from a visitation from Enoch, and in which he wrote about the apparently unusual relationship of the star shafts in the Great Pyramid with the "Belt" of Orion, and where he claims that pyramids were built on Mars for artificial intelligences to gather information. Hurtak holds the post of Research Director, Great Pyramid of Giza Research Association. He is also co-author of the book entitled The End of Suffering, which he wrote with physicist and parapsychologist Russell Targ.

His academic career began as an orientalist and specialist in ancient cultures as Assistant Professor of Anthropology at California State University, Northridge, and at California State Los Angeles. He went on to teach as part of the original faculty at the California Institute of the Arts in the field of Critical Studies and Music.

Working with the various ethnic cultures of the world, he has taken his interest in music and the relatively unknown cultures of developing nations to create and inspire many new music CDs and lyrical scores. His writings, compositions, and devotional chanting has influenced many leading musicians, including Carlos Santana. He has collaborated with Alice Coltrane—using Aramaic, Hebrew and Sanskrit sacred expressions—on her CD Sacred Language of Ascension. His works were also performed in 2010 by the Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester Berlin

Robert V. Taylor is a nationally recognized leader, author, and sought-after speaker and media commentator. He is absolutely passionate about helping individuals and organizations to realize their full human potential and impact in the world—and has invested a lifetime in doing just that.

Born and raised in South Africa, Robert saw firsthand the difference that could be made when oppressed people are given the freedom to discover their voices, trust their imaginations, and find the courage to be who they are. These experiences deeply empowered him, transforming his life.

As a young adult, Robert worked tirelessly to end apartheid. In 1980 his mentor, Archbishop Desmond Tutu sent Robert to the United States to avoid imprisonment for his anti-apartheid activity.

He graduated from Rhodes University, South Africa, and completed graduate work at Union Theological Seminary, New York, eventually becoming the highest-ranking openly gay clergy person in the Episcopal church at the time.

Robert lives by his own belief that goodness and kindness are possible each day as we show up for life. He continues to explore integrating personal spirituality and values-driven strategies with the question of how we each leave a footprint of compassion in the world—both at home, and in the corporate marketplace.

His book, A New Way to Be Human: 7 Spiritual Pathways to Becoming Fully Alive (New Page Books, April 2012)offers a path to an integrated life of purpose.

MARY MILLER is an internationally known speaker and educator. She was born and raised in the Boston, Massachusetts area. Mary received a Bachelor of Arts Degree in 1971 from Boston State College and went on to obtain a Masters degree in Social Work (MSW) in 1973 from the University of Connecticut. Although now retired from clinical social work, she has many years of experience as a psychotherapist in community mental health centers and in private practice.

Mary began her social work career in 1968 as a counselor and youth worker in a cutting edge youth rehabilitation program called Adolescent Counseling in Development. As a counselor she obtained over a thousand hours of training in Gestalt therapy. She also studied Transactional Analysis, Rebirthing, Bioenergetics, Re-evaluation Counseling and Psychodrama. In 1975, Mary founded an alternative mental health center called the People Place, which she directed for several years. In 1982, she founded a second alternative health service called OffSpring that provided support services to families who had lost young children. As a result of that work Mary authored two books:

Transitions Through BirthandEnded Beginnings. From 1984 to 2006, Mary worked with John Miller as researcher and teacher at the Gentle Wind Project, examining alternative pathways to good mental health. The Gentle Wind Project was a good will nonprofit that offered free mental and emotional support to anyone seeking help. The Project researched and developed balancing instruments that were known throughout the world for their effectiveness. The instruments were available on a donation basis. The Project also donated stress relief instruments to impoverished and war-torn countries as well as places that were affected by natural disasters such as hurricanes and earthquakes. In 2003, Gentle Wind became the target of a cyber smear campaign, and along with an unethical government official who joined forces with the cyber smear group, they set out to destroy the efforts of this nonprofit. After years of litigation, Gentle Wind finally closed its doors in 2006 at the hands of the unethical government official. The Gentle Wind Project left behind records showing that thousands of people had benefitted from this company's efforts. The story can be found in Mary's book, Caught in the Act of Helping.

Mary Miller continued in her quest to find alternative, reliable pathways to alleviate mental and emotional distress. She is now the director of https://www.ichingsystems.net/ an alternative mental health group that uses the I Ching Hexagrams in the development of their personal balancing instruments.

Judy Campbell

As co-owner, with Mike Campbell, of  Campbell’s Gold Honey Farm and Meadery, we operate a diversified 8 acre farm operation, including an apiary, in south west Abbotsford.  We offer off-farm honey bee pollination services to local growers and focus on honey and honey wine producton.

As retired professionals we set out to have an active and healthy lifestyle in retirement.  We have certainly achieved this goal…and then some!

Mike, who retired from teaching high school after 35+ years, took up hobby beekeeping about 17 years ago, long before he retired.  As retirement approached and in consultation with Judy, the decision was made to combine Mike’s beekeeping and honey wine hobby activities, with Judy’s love of the outdoors, gardening and the arts, to develop what is today a thriving agricultural, agri-tourism business.  Mike has been active in both the Surrey and Langley Bee Clubs and served a term as second vice-president of the B.C. Honey Producters Association.  Over the last 3 years, Mike has participated in research to enhance honey bee health, and results have been submitted for review and publication.

Judy is a retired federal public service manager.  Fear of bees when we first started beekeeping was the biggest obstacle for Judy who reluctantly joined Mike in the beekeeping hobby at the outset.  Mike being the persuasive type, encouraged Judy to take the Ministry of Agriculture’s basic beekeeping course with him. Part of that course had a lab component where participants were a stung in a controlled environment to determine if they had allergies.  It is there that Judy realized that her fear of bees was due to the irrational fear of being stung, and once intentionally stung, she understood that her fear was unfounded.  Slowly Judy overcame her fear of bees, and focused on honey production, product development and sales.

Mike completed the Master Beekeepers Course and Judy completed this same course some years later, as she joined Mike in retirement.

Although Mike is the Apiary Manager and primary apiarist, we work together in our queen rearing and nuc production endeavours.  We are still playing, working, and learning together.

Our passion includes bee education and being socially and environmentally responsible. Both of us have graduate degrees in learning, so in retirement we wanted to continue to learn and facilitate the learning of others. We provide educational tours and activities, and participate in off-farm community events.  Our bee educational tours have involved all ages from 3 yrs to seniors up to 100 years old.  We started a junior beekeeper week-long, summer day camp for ages 10-14, 3 years ago.  In addition to the existing program, for 2012 we are introducing an additional week-long advanced junior beekeepers day camp for those who actually want to start their own hive.  We feel it is critical to encourage future generations to learn about apiculture, an often neglected aspect of agriculture.

The farm is a licenced  Meadery (honey winery),  producing a variety of honey wines, including ancient mead, melomels (honey/fruit wines), pyment (honey/grape wine) and more.

Our on-farm country store opened in 2007 and has provided a location for local consumers from which to buy honeys, honey wines, and other products from the bee hive such as beeswax soaps, candles, and polishes

We also strategically market our honey products to high end markets and stores in the Fraser Valley and in the Caribou.

The honey farm employs 5 employees throughout the year and we attribute much of our success to the group of committed staff, who assist in the apiary and who offer a warm old fashioned country welcome to all who visit the country store.

Stephen  Mehler was born and raised in New York City, USA  His early education focused on the sciences and he received a B.A. in Physiology and Anatomy, with a minor in Chemistry, from Hunter College of the City University of New York in 1967.  After a four year hiatus in the U.S. Air Force, during the Vietnam War, Stephen came to California and resumed academic work.  He earned an M.A. in Natural Sciences from San Jose State University, specializing in Human Ecology.  Discovering a love for prehistory, Stephen worked on an archaeological excavation in France in 1974 with Professor Francois Bordes of the University of Bordeaux, then Director of Antiquities for southwestern France.  Returning to San Jose State University, Stephen earned a second M.A. in Social Sciences, specializing in Prehistory and Ancient History in 1978.

Since 1968, Stephen has intently researched material about ancient Egypt, particularly the era known as the Amarna Period and the King Akhenaten.  Becoming involved with the Rosicrucian Order, AMORC in 1977, exposed Stephen to the esoteric teachings about Egyptian Mystery Schools.  It was at this time Stephen discovered the writings of the French hermeticist and alchemist, R. A. Schwaller de Lubicz, founder of the Symbolist School of Egyptology.  Stephen also cites the writings of John Anthony West, Murry Hope and Bika Reed as major influences in his pursuit into Egyptology.  Presently, Stephen specializes in synthesizing the theories of academic Egyptology with the arcane wisdom tradition known as the Sacred Science of ancient Egypt.

While working as a Staff Research Scientist for the Rosicrucian Order, Stephen experienced and researched with what has become known as the Mayan Crystal Skull.  Stephen has since worked with three other ancient crystal skulls: the Amethyst Crystal Skull, the famous Mitchell-Hedges Crystal Skull and the Texas Crystal Skull.  Stephen has been interviewed on radio and television concerning his crystal skull research and is featured in the book, Mysteries of the Crystal Skulls Revealed (Bowen, Nocerino & Shapiro, J&S Aquarian Networking, 1988).  Research into crystal skulls is ongoing.

In 1992, Stephen met Egyptian-born Egyptologist and Indigenous Wisdom Keeper, Abd’El Hakim Awyan.  It is Hakim’s teachings about the ancient Khemitian civilization, well over 10,000 years old, that now forms the framework for Stephen’s current research.  Having done field work with Hakim in 1997, 1998, and 1999 in Egypt, Stephen has written a book, THE LAND OF OSIRIS: An Introduction to Khemitology, redefining the field as Khemitology, not Egyptology.  This book also supports the work of Christopher Dunn, author of THE GIZA POWER PLANT.  Stephen’s research supports Dunn’s conclusions that the Great Pyramid was never intended to be a tomb for a king, but a machine to transform, generate and transmit energy. Stephen is currently Director of Research of The Land of Osiris Research Project and The Great Pyramid of Giza Research Association has been interviewed on the radio by Laura Lee, Jeff Rense and the Art Bell show. 

Since 1988, Stephen has also been active in the field of Astrology, and has done private natal and progressed chart readings.  He cites Barbara Hand Clow as a major influence in this area as well as his beloved teacher, Guy Dickinson.

Stephen has also maintained an active interest in the study of UFO/Extraterrestrial phenomenon for over thirty years.  Both as a researcher and experiencer, this interest is presently a part of Stephen’s research into previous prehistoric civilizations.  Stephen cites the works of Max Flindt and Otto Binder, Immanuel Velikovsky, Erich Van Danikan, Zecharia Sitchin and Dr. Arthur Horn as major influences in the possible connection with ancient human civilizations and extraterrestrial contacts.  This research is presently ongoing.

A popular lecturer and teacher, Stephen has had articles published in The Rosicrucian Digest, World Explorer magazine, and Atlantis Rising magazine.  Stephen currently resides in Colorado.
