About the author

Greetings. Following is a little personal background information:

Born on May 12, 1948, I grew up in the Ottawa area of Canada. My father was a horticultural scientist by profession, and my mother, who had emigrated from Holland, belonged to the Theosophist movement. Although both parents had come from upper class backgrounds, they felt that lifestyle was not for them and preferred to live in the middle-class level of society.

After graduating from Wilfred Laurier University in 1969, I travelled and taught in Canada, the U.S., Mexico, Europe, and in the India subcontinent where I have resided for many years. It was here that I acquired through correspondence courses (2012-2016) a Master of Theology and Doctor of Theology degree from Logos Study Centre in Hyderabad. Through the years it has been my privilege to have taught students of all ages, and now, to be working with Youth Brigade, a charitable foundation that extends support to youngsters from a slum district in Bengaluru.

Finally, after what seems like several lifetimes and years of thought, experiences, and others’ teachings gained along the way, I felt the time had come to dedicate time and energy to teaching about a very neglected area of knowledge in these modern times: our origins – the Earth’s beginnings, mankind’s beginnings, and related issues.

It is my sincere hope and earnest desire that you will avail yourself of the Edu-Origins service, especially for the sake of the young people whom you may be responsible for.

Warmest Regards,

John Lyall
