Keep This Quiet! IV: More Initiations

by Margaret A. Harrell

"Keep This Quiet!" IV has been called "psycho-active," "wonderfully relaxing," and "a blending of the whole of a human being and beyond into the cosmos . . . astounding writing." The story begins in the 90s in Tienen, Belgium, where assorted parapsychological phenomena accompany the death of her housemate. Quickly checking in with Hunter Thompson, she winds up at Owl Farm, then returns to Belgium to experientially dive deep into the multidimensional world of visions, computer-PK (mental influence over the computer), divine guidance, Carl Jung, and quantum mechanics. Initiations include encounters with Hindu guru Dhyanyogi-ji. Many traditions join hands, on "the edge" of timeless mysteries.

About the author

The latest of Harrell's books is "The 'Hell's Angels' Letters: Hunter S. Thompson, Margaret Harrell and the Making of an American Classic," available at the publisher's website, Norfolk Press. Harrell was 3 times a Fellow at MacDowell Colony for artists. Marrying a Belgian poet, she lived in Morocco, then took a sharp turn into spiritual growth. In Zurich she studied at the C. G. Jung Institute and had a dramatic "Confrontation with the Self," or as Jung termed it, "Confrontation with the Unconscious." Her former perspective on reality burst at the seams to absorb the jolts in consciousness that followed. Returning to live in Raleigh, NC in late 2002, she began to teach light body courses and professionally display her cloud photography. Having been Hunter Thompson's copy editor on "Hell's Angels" at Random House, the book that first sky rocketed him to fame, she focused on his letters to her when she began to bring out a four-volume "Keep This Quiet!" memoir series in 2011. That book was titled, "Keep This Quiet! My Relationship with Hunter S. Thompson, Milton Klonsky, and Jan Mensaert." "Keep THIS Quiet Too!" followed, and then "Keep This Quiet! III: Initiations." The latest volume was "Keep This Quiet!" IV: "More Initiations" (April 27, 2016). It is reissued, heavily updated, with much new material that built on top of the earlier edition. The new edition is out March 21, retitled "Ancient Secrets Revealed." What are the secrets? Wisdom teachings that emerged through initiations.

Harrell weaves together an engaging story with history, Jungian analysis, scientific research, consciousness and adventure. While it is her own personal journey, the reader, at some level, also shares her path as we are all one. It was a joy for me to read about her experiences that I have been learning more about over the past few years; I appreciated her deep knowledge.

This book is a lovely blend of science and spirituality and will bring new insights to many and on many levels. I appreciated that the author includes exercises at the end of the book to support others in raising their awareness.

This has taken more special attention than the other books in the series, but then it's 424 pages, and Keep This Quiet was under 300. I am thrilled with early-reader reviews.

Review

"A book of wonder-spirit, ghosts, hope, mysticism, mystery. If you ever had instincts, premonitions, or felt you are out of place or feel you know things-that there is a whole world beyond, there's more magic in this world than there's supposed to be-I feel this book is for them. Especially if you're in the last one third of your life and think, 'I want to unlock the mysteries, I want some answers, I'm not done.'"-ALICE OSBORN, author of Heroes without Capes.

"I've always found Margaret Harrell's writing wonderfully relaxing and well thought out. 'Keep This Quiet!' IV is no different. I can just pick it up and slot myself in comfortably. With each book I find myself getting entwined in the words . . . The life . . . The emotion. The education. The peace. Her work allows me to breathe and feel."-MARTIN FLYNN, owner of www.hstbooks.org.

"Margaret Harrell's blending and merging the whole of a human being and beyond into the cosmos is astounding writing and what a lifetime Journey she has taken to arrive to this book. She is working with a whole new and different combined East-West and Middle Paradigm."-SUZANNE V. BROWN, former VP, Exceptional Human Experience Network

I liked the whole book. I especially like the possibility of a Universe teaming with actuality and possibility. And yes, I do think some individuals some of the time tune into more than has
been dreamt of in present usual definitions of actuality. And that they
and all of us are influencing the future (though I think the actuality beyone time is in ways I don't comprehend.)
