Biography of Rev. Dr. Milner

ONENESS FLORIDA

"However enlightened you are,

the question is: Has your heart flowered?

Are you kind?" - Michael Milner

Rev. Dr. Michael Milner, PhD, ThD, DMin

Inter-Faith Minister

Oneness Deeksha Giver

Oneness Trainer

Rev. Dr. Michael Milner, PhD, embodies within himself two very different spiritual priesthoods: Taoist and Christian. Ordained as a Taoist Priest for more than 35 years, Michael was trained as a youth in meditation, qigong, internal alchemy, energy healing and internal martial arts by a Chinese Taoist Grand Master. As a Taoist Priest he continues to teach the Taoist Arts and remains rooted in this beautiful ancient tradition.

Ordained as a Christian minister 30 years ago, Michael was first a Protestant, then a Roman Catholic Franciscan & later a Free Catholic Priest and Bishop. With over 25 years experience as a pastor and three doctorates, including a PhD in Pastoral Counseling, he served as missionary, seminary chancellor, co-founder & chairman of the International Free Catholic Communion and is a federally certified Domestic Violence Counselor and Trainer. Michael is a proponent of Centering Prayer, a form of contemplative prayer or Christian meditation rooted in the mystical Christian tradition handed down by the ancient desert monks.

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

For more than 35 years, Michael has served as a Guide, Counselor and Healer for those who are undergoing processes of spiritual transformation. Drawing on his diverse background, he helps people from many paths flow with the effects of the awakening process.

Michael is a Certified Oneness Trainer & Deeksha Giver (also known as Oneness Blessing). Deeksha is a direct transfer of Divine Grace which brings about the flowering of the heart, opens the door to higher states of consciousness & initiates a neurobiological shift in the brain leading to permanent awakening into Oneness with the Divine & with all of existence. Michael is a graduate of the 21 Day Process, 3 Advanced Deepenings, the Level 2 Course, the Oneness Trainers Course, the 2010 Trainers Deepening and the 28 Day Deepening at the Oneness University in India under the guidance of Sri Amma and Sri Bhagavan. He dedicates himself full-time to the awakening of humanity, giving Oneness Deeksha, holding weekly Satsangs, building up spiritual communities, counseling, healing, teaching workshops & Oneness courses & initiating Deeksha Givers. Michael is webmaster of www.onenessflorida.org and, with his wife Suzanne, co-directs Flowering Heart Center for Awakening & Wholeness in Clearwater, Florida (www.floweringheart.org).

Michael has given talks on the Oneness phenomenon, shared Deeksha and led various Oneness processes at a number of Unity Churches throughout North America including Unity of Houston, Unity on the Bay in Miami, First Unity of St. Petersburg, Unity of St. Petersburg, New Thought Unity Center in Cincinnati and Unity of Myrtle Beach, SC.
