About Me
Hello!
Thanks for visiting www.MagicalMirrorMachine.com!
A long and winding path led me to its creation...
Today’s emerging focus on conscious reality-creation
is, at heart, a focus on how we interact spiritually
with the world. Understanding the nature of that
interaction has been my quest all my life.
It began in a childhood richly steeped in an
ecumenical Christianity. Then, while studying
psychology in college, I discovered the American
transcendentalists and they set my mind on fire.
A sojourn in San
Francisco during the infamous “Summer of Love” in
the mid-60’s introduced me to Eastern religions and
the I Ching. From there, I went on to explore Carlos
Castaneda's’ series on shamanism and alternate
realities, Jane Roberts’ Seth materials that
expounded on the multidimensional nature of our
being, The Urantia Book’s portrayal of the vastness
and meaning of our spiritual reality, the Kabbalah’s
paths through the labyrinth of mind, Transcendental
Meditation’s techniques for resting in the silent
center.
Meanwhile, I kept an eye on contemporary trends in
self-actualization literature, watching for
additional clues to the ways we, as embodied,
time-bound bits of spiritual consciousness, could
learn to express more of our seemingly boundless
potential.
And now, as I review the teachings of deliberate
reality-creation that are seeping into mass
consciousness, I delight at their practical
simplicity. Dancing joyfully between inner and
outer, they unify the two in a way that will bring
expanded awareness, experiential wealth, and new
depths of spiritual understanding for everyone who
is drawn to learn and apply them.
My own outer world has mirrored the penchant for
diversity that’s marked my private studies. For a
couple of years, I owned and operated a metaphysical
bookstore and art gallery where I did over 2,000
Tarot readings, studied astrology, lead classes and
workshops on a wide range of topics, and showcased
the work of local artists.
In addition to owning
the bookstore, I’ve held over 50 different jobs,
working in the fields of food service, real estate,
telemarketing, commercial photography, kitchen
remodeling, water conditioning, custom picture
framing, publishing, encyclopedia sales,
telecommunications, multi-level marketing,
electricity trading, low-back rehabilitation,
franchise sales, leadership and motivational
training, and mental health.
I guess you could say
that I'm an "adept generalist."
I’ve lived on both coasts of the United States and
in a few States in between. In my travels I’ve
befriended people from all walks of life—madmen,
murderers, ministers, and millionaires. I’ve spent
time visiting people in country clubs, welfare
lines, and prisons. I’ve been a pen pal to dozens of
people over the years, writing well over 4,000
letters.
I’ve been married, divorced, and widowed, and
currently share my home with a feline fur-kid named
Tink. I have one adult son, a mechanical engineer,
and a beautiful little granddaughter. When I’m not
at my computer, I can usually be found, camera in
hand, wandering through nature’s wild gardens.
My first ebook,
Winning the
Tomorrow Game, is an overview of the
self-actualization tools that I’ve found most
effective in my own life. My second book,
Goal-Setting: The Hidden Keys
gives the inside
secrets I've discovered to make goals work.
Magical Mirror Machine is my evolving gift to you, a
humble sharing of insights gathered along the way.
May it enrich you and lead you to ever-deeper
discoveries of the wonders of being human in a
magical, mysterious world.
Thank you again for stopping by. Your comments and
questions are always welcome. You can email me

Warm Regards,
Susan K. Minarik
