These subtle arts were created through the linking of individual minds with the universal mind. They are still taught by traditional teachers to those who display virtue and desire to assist others. The student who seeks out and studies these teachings furthers the evolution of mankind as well as her own spiritual unfolding. The student who ignores them hinders the development of all beings.

getting to know Jamaica - once you go, you know You have to get to know Jamaica and the Jamaican people and there is no better way than having a local Jamaican show you around. In our case we are priviledged to have Mr. Frank Rance, owner of FDR Resort in Runaway Bay and Pebbles Resort as our friend showing us around. BACKGROUND OF FRANK RANCE Frank Rance was born in Kingston, Jamaica, the third of five children. His father worked for a local tobacco company as a quality control supervisor. Rance, an above average student, completed high school and went to work for one year as a time keeper and cashier on a local sugar farm. In February, 1966 at age 19, he got a job as a checker and cashier at the Hilton International Hotel. He progressed well during his eight years with Hilton. In 1974 he became an auditor, a top position in financial control for the Jamaican Hilton. His potential had been identified during these 8 years and Hilton sent him to Montreal to its worldwide Career Development Institute to be trained in hotel management. The eight week program was soon to be followed by five trips to the Hilton Caribbean training center in Puerto Rico for additional training in hotel accounting, food and beverage operations, and general management.
