A light-hearted explanation on how to bring together spiritual and scientific ideas of the Universal Field of Creativity in order to find joyful purpose in life by serving others.

This is a book about knowing Nothing.

It’s a journey through folk-science and down-home wisdom to the understanding that ultimately we know nothing much about anything.

How catastrophic! How shocking! How can that be?

Quick, do something!

First, grab a pen, get a notebook and start writing. Call it your Logbook of Life! Hah! These scribbles will give you inspiration as you watch them grow into the patterns of your life.

They are your introduction to the ancient path of the storyteller. The wisdom arises by sitting around the campfire of your soul, warming your spirit with memories and joyful lack of expectations.

Yet, the paradox is, the more time you spend day-dreaming, the more you become aware of the purpose of your life!

Is that so difficult to grasp? Of course it is! Many have tried and many have failed (sounds like Winston Churchill on a bad day!).

What is needed is an entirely revolutionary flag to fly. One that sweeps away the limp rag of the past and proclaims independence from stuffy academia, entrenched religions and Monday Morning Depression.

So, how to get there? Well, first remember that Nature and our DNA never once forget the drive towards harmony and balance. If She is allowed to have a hand in it, our minds relax, and, as the Taoist might say, every problem, left alone, will turn out for the best.

In this book we find the happy world of service to others. We journey through the tragedy of Chernobyl, the far reaches of Siberia, the depth of Asia and the hospitals of those with critical illnesses. And we find that nobody has the answer to why one person is ill and another is never.

We constantly chant the mantra ‘We don’t Know’, and the magic arises in our face and in our hearts.

And we are introduced to the practice of Deep Field Relaxation - the way to happiness through knowing that ‘I am doing the best that I can.’

Clif Sanderson, a New Zealander, was born into the sound of the old Underwood typewriter of his mother, who wrote radio plays, children's stories and more than 25 novels.

His passion for story telling and writing were born at the same time. Being an islander, he also inherited the craving for travelling to far lands and a curiosity about the realms of the impossible.

He learned to fly aeroplanes, photography and signwriting along with the survival skills of driving tractors, repairing cars and picking potatoes.

Yet, Clif's early working years were marked by business success in the advertising world as creative director of advertising agencies, coupled with writing, producing and directing innumerable advertising campaigns, documentary and industrial films and a weekly film and theatre review for a major newspaper.

A published novel, Earth Bound looks at the use of mental focus in the face of disaster. Non-fiction books, Making Outrageous Claims and Dancers In The Fields cover the medical results of his researches. His CD, Mind Music, reinforces the effects of deep relaxing and is used in clinics and for personal benefit. Note: Unlike "New Age" music, it contains no background sounds of water trickling, no waves breaking on the sand, nor seagulls seductively twittering!

He is a full member of the Scientific and Medical Network (U.K.) and the founder of the international children's charity FOCUS (USA).

Clif has travelled the world studying and researching the healing methods of Brazil, the Philippines, Siberia and Polynesia. He has turned his acquired knowledge into his own method, which he calls "Deep Field Relaxation".

His work in the forefront of investigation into the use of intention and consciousness as a powerful healing force attracts both medical interest and general understanding. His lectures on the practical use of subtle energy and the Universal Field are based on the integration of modern physics and mysticism.

Indeed, the Russian Ministry of Health awarded him for Service to Medical Science following his work of more than five years working in the hospitals and villages afflicted by the Chernobyl tragedy.

He has been a member of the Australian Writer's Guild.

Clif has five grandchildren and although sometimes described as a modern nomad, he shares his travelling with his wife of 15 years.
