Biography of Rev. Dr. Milner

ONENESS MOVEMENT FLORIDA

Rev. Dr. Michael Milner, Ph.D.

Inter-Faith Minister Oneness Facilitator

Head Facilitator for OnenessMovementFlorida.org

Rev. Dr. Michael Milner, Ph.D., embodies within himself two very different spiritual priesthoods: Taoist and Catholic. Ordained as a Taoist Priest nearly 35 years ago, Michael was trained in meditation, qigong, internal alchemy, energy healing and internal martial arts by Chinese Taoist Master Share K. Lew. As a Taoist Priest and Abbot, he remains rooted in this beautiful ancient tradition.

Ordained as a Christian minister 27 years ago, Michael was first a Protestant, then a Roman Catholic Franciscan, later a Free Catholic Franciscan Priest and finally consecrated a Free Catholic Franciscan Bishop in 1991. A retired senior pastor with over 20 years experience and three doctorates, he has served as a missionary, a seminary chancellor and is a federally certified Domestic Violence Counselor and Trainer. Michael is a strong proponent of the mystical Christian contemplative tradition handed down by the ancient desert monks of early Christianity and encourages the practice of Centering Prayer (a form of contemplative prayer or Christian meditation). He is co-founder and chairman of the International Free Catholic Communion.

Over the years Michael has spent time with masters, adepts, shamans, healers and teachers from many traditions and received numerous transmissions and initiations including: Taoist, Kriya, Siddha, Kundalini, Tantric, Tibetan Kagyu Buddhist, Theravada Buddhist, Transcendental Meditation, Christian Charismatic, Orthodox Catholic Holy Orders, 3rd Degree Usui Reiki, Oneness Deeksha and others.

A graduate of both the 21 Day Awakening Process and the Advanced Deepening Course at the Oneness University in India under the guidance of Sri Amma and Sri Bhagavan, Michael now dedicates himself full-time to the awakening of humanity through Oneness Blessing (also known as Oneness Deeksha). This is a direct transference of Divine Grace which brings about the flowering of the heart and a neuro-biological shift in the brain leading to a permanent awakening to Oneness with all of Creation and with the Divine Presence itself. Michael serves as coordinator for OnenessMovementFlorida.org, a local branch of Oneness Movement North America, and spends his time sharing Oneness Blessing/Deeksha throughout the world, the state of Florida and the Tampa Bay area, where he facilitates weekly meetings.
