PAMPHLETS AND BOOKS PUBLISHED BY
THE UNIVERSAL FOUNDATION
The Universal Foundation, founded in 1966 by Anthony Brooke and Monica Parish, was a group dedicated to the dissemination of new age ideas and information. Anthony Brooke, formerly the ruler of Sarawak (now part of Malaysia), used his contacts among the royalty and politicians of many nations to spread the word of the new age, travelling worldwide and linking up with many spiritual and esoteric groups.
Anthony and Monica first met Peter Caddy in late 1965 at Sir George Trevelyan’s Attingham Park Conference, The Significance Of The Group In The New Age. Thus began a long association.

The Universal Foundation had a base at Findhorn between 1968 and 1972 in the cedarwood bungalow that still bears the name Universal. This bungalow became their main headquarters in August 1971. In association with the Findhorn Trust (predecessor of the Findhorn Foundation), Universal Foundation published several of the early Community books, including David Spangler’s Limitless Love And Truth, Continued Revelation Parts 1-3 (1970) and Revelation : The Birth Of A New Age (1971).
Universal Foundation’s pamphlets, printed in light blue “flyer” format, of between 2 and 40 pages each, were distributed by mail from UF’s office at Monica’s Parish’s flat in London. They were also distributed by Liebie Pugh’s Universal Link, the group based in St Annes, England with which Anthony, Monica and the Findhorn founders were connected.
The pamphlets were written by Anthony Brooke unless otherwise indicated.
