A Song for Demeter

A Song for Demeter is an interesting book from Richard Kemble.

It's an autobiography that serves multiple purposes. It's a mystical, spiritual journey that uncovers teachings that are normally kept hidden from the gazing eye of the public.

When he became an adult, Richard Kemble became something of a lost soul. A wanderer with no sense of direction, no sense of purpose, no sense of hope, no sense of ambition.

In fact, he seemed to be a young man without a future or a clue of what he should do with his life.

But somehow Richard is able to gather (or re-gather, perhaps?)  himself and to gradually and slowly reform himself and to evolve into someone who did have a purpose after all.

This occurred due to education and and the obtaining of some mystical spiritual training.

With new vigor he was able to forge a new pathway for himself which ultimately resulted in him becoming a school teacher teaching children who had special needs.

The book includes intimate spiritual notes and stories, some poetry and even a quite short play that he wrote whilst he was a student.

Richard also includes stories revealed to him by a range of people from clairvoyants to healers.

The book is very moving, it contains stories that will inspire and also bewilder. For example, what ever did happen to the autistic boy, Osho and his family after they apparently just abandoned their home, even leaving the lights on? Not even the police was able to establish what happened.

I highly recommend this autobiography. It's published by Matador at £9.95.
