Sir George Trevelyan

For biographical detail of Sir George Trevelyan. Bt, the founder of the Wrekin Forum, we suggest the following sources of reference:-

At the start of the last decade of the twentieth century Sir George wrote of “Wrekin into the 90’s”. “Energies of a dynamic and creative nature are clearly flowing in our society and age. I become ever more convinced that we are experiencing the phenomenon of a rising tide of love flooding into human society. Behind the disturbing events of our age of change is, for those who can and will grasp it, this supreme happening. As air floods into a vacuum, so love can enter souls, individually or collectively, achieve the inner stillness, vision, sympathy and forgiveness. Of course the phenomena is nothing less than the inflooding of the being and Presence of the Cosmic Christ. It (He) brings hope, joy, and courage to those who can receive it. In our death-ridden age, we are experiencing the truth that there is no death for the eternal ‘I AM’ in each of us.

The coming years will increasingly call for our close co-operation with the higher worlds. Our culture in the past couple of centuries has been oriented on matter and gaining more power and property for self. That was not the purpose when the Divine instruction gave mankind dominion over all life on this beautiful planet earth. Gaia is clearly angry and sick of her errant steward. Our spiritual and holistic world view recognises that everything on some level is alive and all is part of one stupendous whole. The crisis of change must cleanse this planet and draw from it very many souls who have rejected the spiritual world-view. But remember that we are each watched over by our Higher Self and angel guide and that, if we attune to the Christ power, we shall have our part to play in the building of a New World.

Wrekin Trust has made a notable contribution to the present awakening and we may look forward to great times ahead with courage and excitement”.

Amongst the key ideas that Sir George proposed are those that currently form the inspiration for us in the first decade of the 21st Century, ‘Consciousness underpinning all material form’.

  • The Continuity of Consciousness before birth and after death.
  • The oneness of all life and our interconnectedness with the Creative source, each other and the ‘great web of life’ in the natural world.
  • The perception of a spiritual world-view and its integration in all aspects of life.
  • The crucial importance of engaging with the inner journey of the transformation of the personality as a vehicle for our souls.
  • The power of vision and living ideas to carry us forward.

The Wrekin Trust supports Sir George’s vision for the flower of a second renaissance of our spiritual levels, our culture and community and the institutions that serve. As our definition of ‘Spirituality’ - we have adopted one by U Thant former Secretary General of the United Nations:

“Spirituality is a state connectedness to life. It is an experience of being, belonging and caring. It is sensitivity and compassion, joy and hope It is the harmony between the innermost life and the outer life, or the life of the world and the life universal."
