Lessons in Instant ESP
David had a strong interest in metaphysics and investigated local metaphysical practices everywhere he traveled. He made expeditions into the Amazon and Mato Grosso jungle where he lived with the Indians and studied their spiritual cultures. Clair stated, “I’ve talked to spirits, communicated with and even photographed a ghost, but the living still interest me more than the dead. I believe in the spirit world, in reincarnation, and in spirit intervention in our lives. I’ve seen too much of it not to believe.” His experience became the basis of a number of books. In November of 1975, David traveled to Johannesburg, South Africa, where a cosmetics firm had invited him to be a presenter in a series of seminars designed to encourage the use of psychic techniques in business: the owner, Reeva Foreman, was familiar with psychic training and had read his books. Although the presentations dealt with astrology, numerology, and tarot cards, he observed that the students were not learning how to apply anything to business activities. Upon his return to Los Angeles, he began to assemble his own four-day course, Lessons in Instant ESP, designed to help participants discover and effectively employ their innate abilities to attain a better life through the use of the Cosmic Forces Formula and other practices. Karen was David St. Clair’s associate, along with Alberto Aguas, from 1977-1991 in presenting this course. Their work together took them throughout the world, including Brasil, the U.K., the U.S. and Mexico where they presented workshops and private consultations teaching how to incorporate the Cosmic Forces into one’s life for healing and positive change.
