Consciousness Continuing: Many Lives in One

This is the opening chapter of Consciousness Continuing, the second book in the Consciousness Series. The first book of the series, Consciousness Rising, was published in October 2025. This chapter explores the experience of living many lives within one lifetime.

Consciousness does not improve itself over time. It relocates into realities where different versions of itself are viable.

Chapter 1: Many Lives in One

I have long felt that I’ve lived many lifetimes inside one life. I felt it before I ever heard words like parallel realities or shifting timelines, long before I encountered teachings about reality shifts. It is a lived experience. Entire worlds have closed behind me, and new ones opened — sometimes abruptly, sometimes over the space of several years — but always completely.

My life feels less like a single story and more like a series of distinct realities, each with its own version of me. Perhaps you feel this way too, even if you don’t yet have the language for it.

I’ll describe my major shifts here, as they may help you recognise your own.

Enanika: Visionary Fiction—The Roof of the World

In Chapters 8 and 9 of Enanika, Anu is drawn far beyond the quiet streets of Milkwood into one of the most ancient spiritual landscapes on Earth — Tibet, the roof of the world. At the Hermitage of Ling-Shi-La and later at the Sanctuary of Zamsar, she encounters a living spiritual lineage that once shaped, and still shapes, the energetic evolution of Earth. These chapters move between worlds — Milkwood and the Himalayas, present and past — revealing doorways into the sacred. While the Hermitage offers transmission, the Sanctuary offers a love story.

Chapter 8: The Hermitage of Ling-Shi-La

Anu’s day in Milkwood had been simple: a short shift at the cafe, a quiet walk home, and the soft murmuring of Fat Cow Creek as she settled into bed. She didn’t exactly slip into sleep. Instead, she slipped out of her body.

The heaviness of Earth fell away. The rolling hills of Milkwood faded into the distance. She was astral travelling, moving through layers of light — a thin veil. The air thickened again. Weight entered her limbs. Her feet struck solid ground. She inhaled sharply and felt cold air.

Her body had reformed on a narrow path carved into a cliff face. Below was a drop so deep the bottom dissolved into haze. Huge rocks jutted outward, shielding her ledge from the worst of the icy hurricane gusts. A voice rose from the cliffs below, steady and calm.

“Downwards, child. Not upwards. The path is here.”

The 4-book Nanima Series is Now Complete

The fourth and final book of the Nanima Series, The Flat, is now complete and available. It is deeply satisfying to finish not just The Flat, but the whole series, which has been a friend, confidant, and challenge for the past four years.

Spanning four deeply personal and spiritually rich books—Nanima, Geboor, Sonder, and The Flat—the series follows Maliyan, an insightful and grounded seeker whose path unfolds across the quiet towns and wild landscapes of rural Australia.

The first book, Nanima, was inspired by the rural area my family comes from in NSW, Australia. When I began writing the second book, Geboor, I moved from the city to country Victoria. It and the following books were shaped by the two rural towns I’ve lived in since then.

Alongside Maliyan are Luna—intuitive, witty, and playfully avoidant as he learns to love truly—and Bell-Bell, whose brilliance and volatility reflect the challenges of change and the yearning for wholeness.

The Nanima Series offers not just a story, but a spiritual companion. It invites you to walk the path of growth, to listen deeply to the land and your own spirit, and to remember that evolution is both quiet and profound.
