Jim Gilbert Jim Gilbert worked for 29 years with the City of Denver, 19 years in Engineering, 10 years as a Project Manager and retired in 1999. He found Dr. Helen Walker's Truth Center in the late 1970's where he started taking classes based on the Seth Material. After attending several classes, mostly on Seth, Dr. Helen asked Jim and some of the other Seth readers to help her put on the first Seth Conference in Colorado. That was in 1984, the year Jane Roberts died. This was the beginning of 16 years of The Rocky Mountain Seth Conference, which ended in 1999. Jim joined a new committee that created the Colorado Seth Conference, which began in 2001. Jim was on the CSC Committee from 2001 to 2010. He also attended Seth Conferences in Austin (TX ), Louisville (KY), Ocean Shores (OR), Elmira (NY), and Seaside (WA). The Seth Material is his benchmark guide to "reality construction." He doesn't consider himself an expert...just a student with questions. "It's a lifetime study, probably more. It's fortunate that Seth is a very understanding teacher." - JG |
Joel Heath After a very successful 20 year career as a CPA, Joel spent the next 20 years working as the Chief Financial Officer for closely-held businesses. This logic oriented, right brain, Framework I approach to life was undermined in 1984 when he began reading the Seth Material. Understanding Seth's concepts took some time, but applying them to his own life took decades. Joel had excelled at learning how to work. Now that he is retired and living in Southern Arizona, he is learning how to play. |

Ray Irwin In 1997, Ray came to the Seth material from the scribbled title: Seth Speaks on the back page of Robert Monroe's book Journeys Out Of The Body. Shortly after finding and reading the referred book, Ray quit his job as a regional airline pilot to stabilize his schedule and devote many nights to reading and practicing Seth's teachings in Framework 1 and beyond. |
Jeff King
A reader of the Seth material since the mid-70s, Jeff works in a perfect crucible to
observe limiting beliefs in action — the world of higher education, a mass psyche which
changes at a glacial place and which is filled with entrenched limiting beliefs among
students, faculty, and administrators. His workaday world, though, affords him plenty of
opportunity to seek belief-change technologies at both the individual and institutional
levels. Having thrown in a bit of Heisenberg, a dab of Bohr, a smattering of other
quantum pioneers past and present, and more than a dollop of Taoist philosophy about
living in harmony with the All-That-Is, the soup he serves up in his personal life is still
infused with a base stock of Seth's "You create your own reality," and he works to take
that tasty mix to work and play in equal measure.

Brent Marchant who
is a long-time student of the Seth material, is also an author and speaker who covers a variety of
conscious-creation-related topics. He is perhaps best known for his work on how movies illustrate
Sethian concepts, an idea he explored in his book, Get the Picture: Conscious Creation Goes to
the Movies. At this year's Colorado Seth Conference, Brent will be switching gears a bit, examining conscious creation as it relates to the subject of reincarnation, a topic that has fascinated him for decades. As a long-time practitioner of past life regression and future life progression techniques, Brent has become well-acquainted with his many other selves who reside in alternate timelines. (He is convinced there's a book in this someday, too!) Brent is a regular contributor to several web sites, including VividLife (www.VividLife.me), for which he writes about current movies from a conscious creation perspective, LIFEChanges Network (www.lifechangesnetwork.com), to which he submits blogs on various film and metaphysical topics, and FengSHe (www.FengSHe.org), a site to which he posts articles on using conscious creation to establish balance in life. He also reviews new DVD releases for Library Journal and frequently appears as a guest on a variety of internet and broadcast radio shows. He's a seasoned Tarot card reader and a Level III practitioner of the Reconnective Healing¨ technique. He currently has two new books in development and recently launched a new web site at www.BrentMarchant.com. |
Mike Spurkosky became a fan of the Seth material when, as an avid reader, he discovered
his first Seth book on his parents' bookshelf at the age of 12. He attended his first Seth class atÊage 16 in
the home of Maude Cardwell, founder of the Austin Seth Center in Texas. When Maude passed the
torch to Seth Network International, founded by Lynda Dahl and Stan Ulkowski in 1992, Mike attended
the first conference held by SNI in Seaside, Oregon (1994). He is a regular attendee at most of the
conferences throughout the States, and his desire to speak has grown from the inspiration and desire
to express the importance of the material.

research on elementary particles He is also interested in the intersection of physics and parapsychology, and
has proposed an experiment to see if an individual, through mental intent alone, can make a single electron

test mind over matter (again using an elementary particle). Ron also plays the piano professionally, in church

Edee Gail , singer, songwriter, musician and adventurist grew up on an island in Michigan looking
east to Canada. She watched ships from all over the world pass in front of her house and knew at a young age
that she wanted to travel. She came from a very musical / theatrical family and has been singing most of her life.
After a brief stint teaching elementary school, Ms. Gail headed out exploring. She circumnavigated the globe twice while working as a flight attendant and in management for a major airline. Traveling by motorcycle from Peru to Terra Del Fuego, she then moved to the bush of Alaska using a dog team to take in supplies. She received four years of schooling from Western Michigan University in elementary education, two years at South Plains College in Levelland, Texas in music and sound technology, and received a degree in music, dance, and writing from Naropa University in Boulder, Colorado. Edee has traveled across the country delighting audiences with her music and unique perspectives on life, which she weaves into her songs and stories. Many of her favorite venues are out-of-doors, for example, the stern-wheeler Riverboat Discovery, on which she's played the last eight springs in Fairbanks, Alaska. Edee has also performed at: The Carbondale Mountain Fair, Water World, The Alaska Folk Fest, Canyon Passages River Trip, Crestone National Energy Fair, the Paonia 4th of July Cherry Festival, The White House Council On Aging Seminar held at Naropa University and The Fairbanks Folk Festival. She was seen playing her original song "Laughin and Lovin" for an ABC Dateline piece on co-housing. |
Ron Pierce started reading the Seth material around 1977. He started a quest in his
early teens to find something he never really knew what, and eventually it led to the Seth material and as he
read it, it felt very meaningful and it felt like it was his truth. He has been attending the Colorado conferences
since 1987, hasn't made them all but has made the majority of them and whenever he attends, it feels like he
is with his family. Ron has always been interested in sound and things that make sound. He has a collection
of drums, gongs, flutes, weird instruments from around the world that make interesting sounds. Sound just
seems really important to him. He came across a didjeridoo at a new age fair and bought it, and was able to
play it and circular breathe within 2 days. He really felt that he was tapping into another life or probable self
somewhere who knew how to play. He learned how to make native american flutes and enjoyed doing that
for a while. He does not consider himself a musician, since he doesn't read music or play specific songs or even
play for very long; he just plays from his heart as best as he can.
