About Gary Renard
author of
THE DISAPPEARANCE OF THE UNIVERSE:
Straight Talk About Illusions, Past Lives, Religion,
Sex, Politics, and the Miracles of ForgivenessGary Renard, Hay House author of The Disappearance of the Universe was born on the historic North Shore of Massachusetts. He became a successful professional guitar player, but during the harmonic convergence of 1987 he heard a Calling and began to take his life in a different direction. At the beginning of the 1990s he moved to Maine where he underwent a powerful spiritual awakening. As instructed, he slowly and carefully wrote The Disappearance of the Universe (now referred to by many readers as “DU”) over a period of nine years. Originally published by Fearless Books and available to its first readers in March of 2003, the book became an underground hit and was acquired in June of 2004 by Hay House, the largest publisher in the world specializing exclusively in spiritual titles. Hay House released its edition of the book, completely unchanged except for a small part of the Foreword to reflect the book’s new circumstances, in November 2004.In the fall of 2003, after much personal encouragement from other speakers and students, Gary began to present talks and workshops in public. His speaking career took off remarkably fast, and today he lectures internationally as well as serving on the faculty of Omega Institute, considered by many to be the world’s premier spiritual teaching organization. Combining a disarming sense of humor with radical, cutting edge metaphysical information and experiential exercises, Renard has been described as one of the most interesting and courageous spiritual speakers working today. In the last two years Gary has taught spirituality in 35 states, Canada, Australia, England, and Costa Rica. He was the Keynote Speaker at the International A Course in Miracles Conference in Salt Lake City in 2005. His appearance schedule is available on this website.
