Michaels spiritual quest began around his 30th birthday in 1992. In about 2007 his quest accelerated towards what would ultimately redefine his self-identity and understanding of spirituality. He describes an absolute compulsion to seek what he didn’t understand. He talks about a lifetime of presumed miracles that couldn’t be ignored any longer. As a result, his quest for truth became an obsession that took on many forms for nearly twenty-five years.
His quest for Truth has passed through the various religious teachings into the common ground that laid behind them. He says that the essence of our spiritual consciousness is unity, yet the essence of our religious idealism that has driven us apart. We are not separate from anything and our primary purpose here is to align with our inherent higher self. We are here for the evolution of consciousness through our physical experience. This is our higher purpose.
Michael acknowledges that the Truth can only be experienced but he’s committed to sharing principals and paths that can help make sense of this often veiled Reality.
Michael Edwin Clarke was born in 1962 in Roswell New Mexico. At the age of six, Michaels mother moved them to Dallas, TX where he lived until around 2013.
As a child, Michael was always looking for opportunities to make a little money. In first grade, he sold homemade potholders to his neighbors for .25 cents. In fifth grade, he worked a summer job at a car wash and in seventh grade he made trash can racks for the neighbors to meet the new city trash ordinance requirements. Working at an early age was a natural thing for Michael. He admits that even as a kid he knew that if he wanted something, he would have to work for it.
Michael was always involved in sports as well. In Jr high, he won two silver medals at the AAU Junior Olympics in hurdling. In high school, he was starting fullback on the varsity football team and also ran the first leg of the 440 relay.
Just after High School Michael started work in the jewelry industry and received the designation, (G.G.) Graduate Gemologist, from the Gemological Institute of America in Santa Monica California.
Michael started his own jewelry business in 1988 and then early in 2005 invented and patented the first ever home use jewelry steam cleaner that was introduced on the major home shopping channels and other venues. Michael spent nearly 30 years in the jewelry industry.
During Michaels active adult life, he enjoyed a twenty-two-year marriage, being a father to two daughters and a grandfather of five. He tried Bungee jumping, parachuting, and even got his private pilot’s license. Being outside the box was definitely a comfortable place.
Michael says that his writings are intended to help release one's limiting personal beliefs and boundaries. Through reconciliation our personal beliefs and experiencing our true nature we can begin to see what has held us back. Moving forward requires accepting where we are now, then consistently seeking to live the truth.
