"Three Metaphors for Enlightenment" is the title of a talk to be given at the Emerald Coast Meditation Society on Thursday, Jan. 8. Speaker will be Dr. Ron Frazer, a natural health practitioner and novelist.
The ECMS meets at 6:30 p.m. at Christ the King Episcopal Church, 480 N. Co. Hwy. 393, Santa Rosa Beach, one-half mile north of Hwy. 98. The free meeting begins with 30 minutes of silent meditation. Although it usually meets on the first and third Thursdays, because the first Thursday of January was New Year’s Day, the ECMS will meet on the second and fourth Thursdays this month.
Frazer has degrees in mechanical engineering, mathematics, natural health and ninety percent of a degree in fine arts. He has lived in the U.S., the United Kingdom, St. Lucia and Grenada. Since 2001, he has lived on the Emerald Coast (where he says he can pretend he's still living in the Caribbean) with his naturopath wife, Sandy.
He has published five novels, with a sixth coming out in February. Three of them are a trilogy featuring a black female detective: “The Carib’s Smile,” “The Judge’s Wife” and “The Women, Left.” “Time Branches” is the story of a woman in a coma who discovers she can move in time and space. His first novel, “A Handful of Seawater,” is the story of a poor boy living on a tropical island who is guided by a simple fisherman. Fraser’s new novel is “Millenium 3,” set in 2953 in a peaceful world controlled mostly by women.
Frazer says his stories are based on the lives of his students and their families on the Caribbean island of Grenada, where he taught math and science following the 1983 U.S. intervention.
The evening will end around 8 p.m. with a short guided meditation. Anyone who would like meditation instruction should come at 6:15 p.m. Questions?
