    About this ebook

    Born in South Baltimore City in March of 1942, my mother moved my two sisters and me to a new housing

    development for military families in Baltimore County when I was three. My youthful years were spent

    fishing, crabbing, tree climbing, catching snakes and other forms of small wildlife in Turner Station,

    Maryland.
    In my late teenage years, I was a feared gangbanger-without a gun. As my interests and curiosity about

    life matured, I wanted to comprehend the tenets of manhood. I chose the teachings of Elijah Muhammad

    rather than opting into the military where many young men around me headed for their manhood classes.
    During my childhood fling with wildlife, I had a serious desire to study the laws of nature. I had no

    access to technology or even conventional equipment like a magnifying glass, but I would do such things

    as use a piece of glass to study a blade of grass and everything around that blade. I would sit for

    hours on the water’s edge, and as I followed the motions of the waters, I would travel all around the

    world. ( I was afraid of the sensation of doing it in a boat or even in the water.)
    In my adult years, I wanted to further the development of my whole self. I attended meetings:
    • The Theosophical Society which provided an array of spiritual studies.
    • Initiation into the Moorish Science Temple of America.
    • Continuing education classes on the science of meditation and yoga
    • Read and studied the works of Joseph Murphy, Ernest Holmes, Noble Drew, Ali Edgar Casey, et. al.
    • Several Orders of the Masonic Society.
    • Spiritual and physical training in the nation of Islam.

    I wanted to see further than the rituals that people practice. I wanted to go behind the veil. I wanted

    to connect my findings to my mind’s eye. The Mentoring Clinic will allow me to share some of these

    techniques that nature has provided to gain access into one’s own mind.
    For this I am grateful.

      The Mentoring Clinic - Arthur O Burrell

      Introduction

      Arthurian Works

      Since 1988, Burrell’s Spiritual Psychology (BSPM) has provided educational and spiritual guidance to an impressive number of individuals, as well as groups. Guidance is offered through a variety of topics involving real life situations that include (but are not limited to) divorce, parenting skills, troubled youth, religion and spiritual understanding, motivation and inspiration to inmates, as well as those affected directly and indirectly from substance abuse. The goal is the healing of the inner child in all of us.

      In 2000, BSPM expanded its attention to coaching and mentoring developmentally disabled young males. The program began as a weekend design that progressed and extended to a full-week program. It offers hands-on, innovative social and educational activities, outings and field trips which help to enhance self-esteem and independent living skills. Included in this program are ideas in
