Biography
Sarah Chambers was born November 30, 1937 in Cincinnati, Ohio and died in Santa Fe, New Mexico on December 8, 1998. Sarah married Richard "Dick" Chambers in 1972. Together, they were involved in early groups studying the self-understanding work of George Ivanovich Gurdjieff in Oakland, California. [1]
The Michael Teachings
Using a Ouija board, Sarah Chambers brought through the entity we know today as "Michael" originally in August of 1973. [2]
Sarah had been meeting in a small study group along with Alice Hannah, their husbands (both named Richard) and other close friends who were interested in more advanced spiritual study. Friends invited friends to the groups. Some stayed for a time and many others just passed through. Over the years the group existed, the core of what has become known today as "the Michael Teachings" was revealed. Alice Hannah, "secretary" for the original Michael study group in the early 1970's, kept the group's records and created transcripts of their sessions. The information they brought forth provides the foundation of the body of knowledge that we study today, which has now expanded as more channels and teachers are trained and students develop more advanced skills. As advanced students progress in their awareness and needs, new levels of information are being revealed that deepen and broaden the original work.
Some of the early transcripts of the groups were used in the books Messages from Michael [3] and More Messages from Michael [4]. The book Michael's People [5] describes the fictionalized people involved in the early study groups.
Public Domain transcripts of Sarah's early groups have been published by the non-profit Center for Michael Teachings in three volumes in a series called The Legacy of Sarah Chambers. [6]
From those early beginnings, there are now more than 40 books published about the body of work called the Michael Teachings. A full list of books is available at www.itstime.com [7]
