[edit] 1990s "Spiritual Psychology"
His most prominent topics were ascension and meditation techniques. He also wrote a number of books on the topic of Spiritual Psychology, and later enhanced his publications to an "Easy-to-Read Encyclopedia of the Spiritual Path" containing numerous volumes (see Bibliography). With the growing popularity of the World Wide Web, he also composed one of the more comprehensive websites on spirituality which has often been used as a point of reference on New Age topics. Furthermore, he founded an academy for spiritual studies by the name of Melchizedek Synthesis Light Academy & Ashram (MSLA) (which then later developed into the I AM University). He served as an "official" spokesperson for the planetary ascension movement and made his mark in the Consciousness Community as a prolific writer , authoring the 15 Easy to Read Enclyclopedia of the Spiritual Path, published in several languages, as well as seven major Ascended Master Training Courses and several comprehensive Training Programs ranging from Channeling , the Psychology of Astrology , the Book of Life of God, to his legendary 2,000 page Counseling Manual, and much , much more.. His major contributions were the propagation of the concepts of "Cosmic Ascension" and "Integrated Ascension".[citation needed]
[edit] Wesak celebrations
In the 1990s, Dr. Stone also brought Wesak to the West, hosting Ten Wesak Celebrations in Mount Shasta, California, for thousands of people around the World, and he introduced, inspired ideas such as striving for "Integrated Full Spectrum Prism Consciousness"to become a perfect living reflection of our Creator and transcending the negative ego mind as a requirement to realize God. He was a pioneer in the field of Spiritual Psychology and authored the concept of integrated ascension as well as the noble ideal of striving to become an Integrated Ascended Master , both terms which he coined to stress the importance of mastering and integrating the Spiritual, Psychological, and Physical/Earthly aspects of self to follow an integrated and balanced approach to Self and God Realization.
[edit] I AM University
In November 2004 , he founded and officially launched the I AM University , an acronym that stands for "Integrated Ascended Masters University" The I AM University is today a global Austrian-based educational institution with a single focus: to provide those who can grasp the noble ideal of pioneering in this world as a living Integrated Ascended Master with all the training and tools they need to fulfill this lofty call.
Today the I AM University is the one and only Integrated Ascended Master Training Facility in this World! It stands firmly on the foundation of a comprehensive and ever-expanding curriculum which Dr Stone dedicated his life creating.
In 2005 Dr Joshua David Stone passed over to the Spirit World where he continues to Spiritually support the expansion of the I AM University, the continuation of which he entrusted into the hands of Gloria Excelsias, his long- term personal assistant and protégé. Dr Stone is one of the most widely read authors in the New Age Movement and known as the World's most trusted source for integrated Spiritual development.
