As teachers of the whole person, Ernest and Ruth Norman have made possible, through their example, the turn-around of thousands of individuals who had been imprisoned in their emotional problems and situations. By means of the psychotherapy described in the books, lesson courses, video programs, and audiobooks of Unarius, they have shown how dedicated students can learn the cancellation technique, necessary in self-healing, to detune themselves from past-associated, negative involvements and to develop the positive bias so necessary for good mental health and integration.

As cosmic visionaries, the Normans are forerunners for the new age of Spiritual Renaissance--of logic and reason-- bringing to man an understanding of the principle of evolutionary physics and providing realistic models which answer man's unquenchable desire to know of himself.

In 1954, with just a $200 monthly income from a small investment, Ruth, with her husband Ernest, initiated the Unarius Educational Foundation as a nonprofit, tax-exempt organization to provide information about the nature of man and his progressive evolution. The Foundation, through its Academy of Science, an independent college, reaches more than 500,000 individuals through its facilities in teaching, publishing, and the production of television and film documentaries, which air nationally.

Ernest Norman was a scientist, electronic engineer, and poet, as well as an advanced clairvoyant. He was inspired to write textbooks on the nature of consciousness and interdimensional physics, to diagrammatically illustrate the principles of energy from a fourth-dimensional level of understanding.

Twenty pioneering, landmark books were authored during the seventeen years of Ernest's and Ruth's active association. Because of their great determination and strength--an effort equal to that of many Gandhi's--the work of the Normans soon began to reach interested individuals who were seeking answers to the enigmas of their lives. Requests for information began to arrive from around the world. In order to accomplish this labor of love, the Normans secluded themselves from their families so they could devote all their time to the Mission--an incredible example of dedication and compassion for the many people who were seeking and needing spiritual-psychological help!

After Ernest Norman made his transition to the higher planes of light worlds in 1971, Ruth began to receive, from higher spiritual worlds, books describing the curriculum of the interdimensional science of life. From 1972 to 1993, she authored over 80 books of poetry, philosophy, and science, and in 1975, she created the New World Teaching Center. The adjoining Star Center is an inspiration of unparalleled beauty, with murals covering the walls depicting scenes of a crystal-clear environment as viewed on an astral planet! During the teaching sessions and seminars on-going at the Unarius Academy of Science, students are touched mentally by Masters--an example of the attunement process necessary for good mental health.

In 1978, Ruth Norman began producing television programs and films, extending the teachings of Unarius to a wider audience and using the psychodrama technique which had been introduced through her pioneering classes in past-life therapy. Students with film and television production experience appeared and soon were training others as the department expanded. Presently, over 100 television programs and three full-length films have been completed. They are presently airing on cable television channels throughout California, as well as nationally and internationally.

The many letters received from students throughout the world attest to the great help they have realized. They speak of the various healings they experienced from the inspirational help they received from the Unarius Brotherhood.

Many thousands of testimonials describing the healing of major, as well as minor physical and mental problems are on file at the Unarius Center. These healings have been made possible through the student's application of the scientific principles of cause and effect described as a past-life therapy. Understanding the reality of one's continuity, life-after-life and life after death, results in the true knowledge of one's spiritual design and the importance of advancing the progressive intent of one's evolution.

In her biography, Bridge To Heaven, Ruth Norman recalls many psychic experiences in which she became aware of the continuity of life after death, flashbacks to past lifetimes, and visions of life on higher worlds. One of her most vivid experiences took place during the period shortly after her husband returned to the worlds of Spirit. She was looking through the window of her home when two unusual, brilliantly-colored birds alighted on the fence during a pounding rainstorm. As she thought to herself how strange it was to see birds flying in the rain, especially ones with such brilliant plumage so unusual for Escondido, California, a great, golden-white pulsating Flame appeared at her side. It was 10 to 15 feet in height! She strongly felt the presence of her recently departed husband, Ernest, and immediately was inspired to write several pages in verse form of the thoughts she received from him in Spirit!

In this beautiful verse, Ernest Norman, Raphiel, as he is known by his true spiritual identity, spoke about his transition to the Celestial Planes. He gave an immortal lecture on the nature of man and his progression into higher states of awareness, and how this was true for all souls in future progressive evolutions! Ruth Norman, whose true spiritual identity is the Archangel Uriel, knew without a doubt of the continuity of life after death. After this experience, she was overshadowed by Raphiel and the Brothers of Unarius in carrying out her functions as administrator, author, teacher, healer, and cosmic visionary.

Ruth Norman's great drive lay in her visionary awareness of the reality of life as progressive in its development to higher states of intelligence. This knowledge was a part of her because of her own spiritual development as a Hierarchial member of the Unarius Brotherhood. Although, like Ernest Norman, her humbleness was such that she took no credit and simply stated that she was merely the secretary to Infinite Intelligence, one cog in the great wheel of the Infinite Cosmos, the higher self of Ruth Norman (Uriel) is of a vast development, a Universal Radiant Infinite Eternal Light. She has long worked for the benefit of mankind, by the side of Raphiel and others of the Unarius Brotherhood, throughout many, many lifetimes of great significance in the history of Earth and other worlds. Her previous lifetimes, as Socrates, Peter the Great, Charlemagne, Queen Elizabeth I, and Queen Maria Theresa have shaped the future for many countries--all a part of a one-million year progressive plan for the healing of mankind on Earth, which was set in motion by the Spiritual Hierarchy of the Unarius Brotherhood. Her inspirational example continued through her lives as Hatshepsut, Akbar of India, Quetzalcoatl, Atahualpa--the last Inca of Peru, and many others. These lives have been relived and recognized through the course of her recent incarnation as Ruth E. Norman, for the purpose of man's enlightenment concerning the true identity of the many advanced spiritual teachers and leaders who have walked the plains and valleys of Earth throughout the centuries. The book, Visitations, A Saga of Gods and Men, describes these many lifetimes of Uriel.

Perhaps most significant to 20th-century man is the true story of Uriel's incarnation as Mary of Bethany, the betrothed and 13th disciple of Jesus of Nazareth--a prior incarnation of Dr. Ernest L. Norman. This story is related in Uriel's short autobiography, My 2000-Year Psychic Memory as Mary of Bethany.

It is now and always has been the desire and purpose of Uriel to overcome the inertia of individuals and humankind as a whole by presenting knowledge of the Interplanetary Confederation--33 worlds joined in harmony and brotherhood. The future landing of emissaries from each of these worlds will occur after the initial landing of the Muons from planet Myton.
Their mission is one of peace and friendship; their intention is to invite planet Earth to become the 33rd member of the restored brotherhood of terrestrial planets located within the Milky Way Galaxy! Uriel is the ambassador and the leader of this effort to join the people of Earth with those who live on other terrestrial planets throughout the galaxy.

Ruth E. Norman has been introduced in many books of the Unarius Academy of Science as its co-founder and director and as the cosmic visionary for mankind. In this respect, then, the publishing and teaching organization of Unarius must function, in the same manner as all atomic constituent parts on any earth plane, to regenerate the information within the books, and audio and videotapes. Therefore, through the consciousness of Ruth E. Norman, the power and the force of Uriel, a spiritual Sun, can be shone into the minds of countless peoples on an earth planet.

In this manner, the Unarius Academy of Science is a functioning development for the new society of man, carrying the clear signal of Cosmic Intelligences who have lived on Earth before as scientists, educators, healers, teachers--inspirational forces to touch humanity's inner and higher spiritual consciousness.
