Strictly Spiritual: Your Place for Spiritual
Teachers
As the author of this website says: "This spiritual search guide is designed to
save you time. It is a condensation of my experience in searching for spiritual
teachers and systems: the results of my logic and feeling. My search has not been
for pleasure or temporary peace. If that is your goal, then you probably won't like
my ratings of teachers that cater to that market. I am drawn to teachers who force
me to look within and ask: who am I, where did I come from, and where am I going?
To pursue these questions is the greatest adventure of one's life." It is an excellent
resource.
Spiritual Friends Locator
This is a stand alone part of the spiritualteachers.org website which can be helpful
towards finding like minded people in your area to work with.
The Mystic Missal
This website contains a wealth of practical information on ways and means for seeking
the Truth as well as numerous articles and essays aimed at helping the seeker to
retreat from error. Also every two months the author posts a new missal where he
takes an in depth look at a selected spiritual teacher or tool and pinpoints the
value it can have for seekers. The author is particularly adept at pointing out
many of the traps, pit-falls, and ego games that are all too easy to fall into.
The Listening Attention
A companion site to the Mystic Missal, with additional writing and humor aimed at
the Gateway to Within.
Albigen System Books
Here you can find descriptions of, and ordering information for Richard Rose's books
and CDs as well as other valuable material. The introduction on the website puts
it well: "Richard Rose wrote seven books over a span of thirty years. Each deals
directly with a specific aspect of spiritual seeking. He approaches the study of
self, and the study of the human mind, in as scientific a manner as is possible
in what must always be a subjective realm. He does not labor to create a paradigm
of words and concepts, but intently and expertly disarms many of the preconceptions
a spiritual seeker brings to the table..."

The TAT Foundation
The monthly TAT Forum E-zine found on this website is an extremely good resource
for seekers. It provides thought provoking articles, essays, and poems from a variety
of writers which serve as a catalyst to spur one within. Among other resources,
this website also contains information on the Albigen System - a practical approach
for those seeking to find real answers, and the TAT Foundation - a group of dedicated
and sincere seekers which holds meetings four times a year.
Spiritual Books Worth Reading
This is an excellent website which lists and gives information on a number of profound
books which provide helpful guidance for people who are searching within. It also
provides resources for obtaining hard to find books and contains the full text of
several out-of-print but invaluable books such as Conquest of Illusion and Gates
of the Mind.
