Dr Phillip Groves

Dr Philip Groves taught students for over 30 years - those studying holistic medicine and also those searching for greater truth.

The foundation of his work was guiding people to realise the abundance of his life, leading to the development of potential life skills and creative expression as well as greater knowledge and understanding of the world in which we live. These higher goals are explored by the use of practical application and real methodology, founded in Esoteric Christianity, although the works of Emanuel Swedenborg and Gurdjieff are constantly drawn upon.

His Published Work:

Spiritual Psychology

Spiritual Psychology is concerned with the arousal and development of the buried potentials of human life which are unknown to most people and but dimly suspected by a few. It is the application to ourselves of methods and disciplines that serve to establish the conditions in which a completely new kind of life may begin to appear. This new life is often referred to as rebirth or regeneration. We cannot make it happen, because we have no power over the higher levels of the universe; but we can work upon ourselves and prepare the ground for the possible ingression of spiritual, celestial and Divine energies which are capable of reviving us. This book deals with details of a methodology which leads to self transformation.

Mega Nature

We are encouraged to explore nature and the biosphere more fully and understand the great variety of life, and to better comprehend its relationship with mankind; he huge cycles that keep matter on the move, and the delicate balance between animals, plants and ourselves. We need more than an elementary knowledge of botany, zoology, geology and climatology. As sensitive, living, thinking beings we require a larger system of reference against which we can see the significance of birth, life and death; of vision and inspiration; of hope and love; of creation and eschatology. We have a deep rooted need to understand where we are placed in the whole cosmic order and the exploration of Meganature will help us to find ways of fulfilling these needs.

The Philosophy of Natural Healing

Natural Therapy can provide a very great service to the community. By virtue its wholistic foundations, it gives attention to the total person and helps him live in harmony with nature. It accomplishes this by means of various regimes and thorough education. The regimes are practical ways of restoring health to the person, and education is the means of helping him to know and understand the laws of nature and how to live in obedience to them. Health, wholeness and harmony are the central themes of natural healing; they are also the central themes of sound living. The material included here incorporates an overview of the whole field of natural therapies - yoga, naturopathy, nutrition, forms of massage, spiritual healing and also a broad view of methods of improving well-being and quality of life.

The Garden of the Mind

This is a compilation of talks given between 1964 and 1993, examining the variety of approaches to the spiritualising of the whole person and exploring the hidden aspects of life - in Dreams; in the Spiritual dimensions of Biology; a study of Life, Death and Eternity; and the Concept of Transformation. As with all Dr. Groves work there is substantial reference to ancient cultures and religion, and the details of the workings of the natural world, with the chapters weaving together a common thread: the wonder of the Divine - the Source of all creation.

Science and Esoteric Wisdom

Here we find a wonderful combination of the laws of the natural world and the laws of the universe as taught by esotericism. It is explained that these universal laws are found as guidelines and sources of wonder throughout all natural existence; specific examples are studied in order to be able to recognise this - in human biology in the form of cells and anatomical mechanics, in literature and creative expression, and within the structure of many world religions throughout history. There are also specific chapters devoted to examining esoteric material and how we can apply it to ourselves in order to gain a more abundant life experience.

This wonderful book explores in detail myths from a variety of cultures - Asian, Aboriginal, Persian, Egyptian, African and European, and endeavours to open some of the more internal meanings contained within them.
