about me
Frank Valentyn is a metaphysicist, lecturer, composer and author of a number of ground-breaking books. His constant search for knowledge led him into a wide spectrum of study including acoustics, mineralogy, geology, cosmology, human genetics, astronomy and astrophysics, metaphysics, neurophysics, evolutionary biology, comparative theology, immunology, PNI, NLP and many others. This wide-spread research places him in an ideal position to present a holistic, unifying perspective which will change your view of reality forever.
Frank is the author of a number of books including “The Nature of Being,” “The Poetic Stance,” "Switch on the Candles Please?", "The Rock and the Eagle," and CDs, “Dances in Dreams,” (Classical Guitar Music with his Ten-String Guitar compositions,) and a four-CD album, “Meta-Meditations," set to his own multi-instrumental music.
Valentyn has six diplomas in electronics specialising in formal logic analysis and process modelling. He worked in the nuclear medicine department of one of Johannesburg's largest public hospitals and was principal of an electronics college, technical manager of an international telecommunications firm and freelance technical advisor. His understanding of alternative energy sources led to a six-month research report, “The Solar Power Initiative,” SPI, submitted to government. He is a Reiki practitioner and certified kinesiologist.
An accomplished ten-string classical guitarist whose works are played in many countries, he is a national music prizewinner, lecturer, teacher and composer and had his work performed at the Johannesburg Civic Theatre.
In March 2010 Frank was interviewed by Kelly Thorington of Classic FM on the subject of “Music as language in the modelling of an underlying reality” – this led to a commission by UNISA to present a paper on “Transcendence in Music” to an international conference in Pretoria.
Since a very early age Valentyn realised that his deepest inner calling was in the service of enlightenment – his explorations of reality have led him into a very wide field of study that includes causality, mutagenics and teratology, psychoneuroimmunology (PNI, on which he has written extensively,) neurolinguistic programming (NLP,) cosmogony, exobiology, neurophysics, ethology, semiotics and biosemiotics, evolutionary biology and archaeoanthropology, meta- and paraphysics and reincarnative mechanisms.
Frank Valentyn runs a popular, fully audiovisually supported public workshop, “The Quantum Shift Experience”.
"Switch on the Candles please?" and "The Rock and the Eagle," are presented in their complete form here; "Karyn's Gift" is complete at 424 pages, 361 200 words, but only its first eight chapters have been posted.
For those who wish to pass the metaphysics, the treatment of the origin of individuated consciousness and the physical universe of energy and matter, I suggest reading "The Rock and the Eagle" from Chapter Twelve onwards - you can always return to what started it all...
