“Be the change you wish to see in the world.”
~ Mahatma Gandhi
The purpose for undertaking A Spiritual Revolution is not to change the world, it’s to change yourself to create the world you would like. Your greatest achievement is not to become someone…
It is to become the authentic true YOU.
A Spiritual Revolution is a second, radically different education for adults to unlearn and undo the harmful consequences programmed into us all by an anti-social school system and anti-health society. You get to unblock your mind, unlock your heart, and unleash your spirit upon the world.
Welcome to your real self.
“Be the change you wish to see in the world.”
~ Mahatma Gandhi
The Complete Course in Self-Empowerment and Spiritual Self-Growth is a
life-changing 16-week, 80-hour online course running from 13 September 2025 to 10 January 2026.
The course is built around learning the book Menu for A Spiritual Revolution: Health Harmony & Happiness with the author, Philip Keay, teaching it himself.
You read one chapter per week, and then explore your understandings in small group guided discussions each lesson.
Lessons are 2.5 hours, held on Saturdays. With about 2.5 hours of homework and self-study, you will need to set aside 5 hours of learning time each week.
The group size is limited to 12 students, the cost is £1250 excluding the course book.
If this course doesn’t empower you and transform your life, nothing will!
Here are 5 game-changing benefits to transform the way you experience life:
you uncover the real true you (suppressed by society and its devastating school system) and align yourself with your true nature
you take charge of your own life, healthy and destiny
you become a confident articulate communicator, socially self-assured in all your relationships
you become a skilled learner and sovereign human being
you have the skills and know-how to feed and nourish your mind, body and soul, and to proactively contribute to building a better world for all.
We can add a sixth major benefit, most keenly felt by parents, educators, leaders, life coaches, activists, entrepreneurs and world helpers:
you now have the mindset and skillset, the self-knowledge and self-awareness, and the self-belief and self-worth to be a mentor and leader for others to empower themselves in kind.
You are skilled self-leadership, giving you a solid foundation to be an excellent and motivational leader for others. In learning how to upgrade and transform your life you learn how to facilitate others to do the same.
“If you want a better world, if you want a better tomorrow, then you have to create and build a better world and a better tomorrow
TODAY, for tomorrow is forever one day out of your reach.”
~ Philip Keay
The purpose of this page is to give you enough information to decide if you would like to receive the Prospectus and Syllabus for the course, with a view to becoming one of the students.
It is a 16-week 80-hour course which runs from
13 September 2025 to 10 January 2026
There is a break for Christmas during which you will work on your Lifelong Learner’s Handbook to present to your peers.
Lessons are 2.5 hours and held online on Saturdays, using the Zoom platform for our classroom. Anticipate about 2.5 hours self-study and homework tasks, meaning you need to invest about 5 hours of learning time each week for the duration of the course.
There is room for a maximum of 12 students
This is because learning how to take part in, and build, successful communities with a strong group dynamic, underscores holistic education, and needs to be a first-hand learning experience.
The cost is £1250 (excluding the course book)
As ever, the value is in the eye of the beholder, but do bear in mind you will be investing four months of time, energy and money for a lifetime of rewards.
If you think the price is low, and find yourself questioning the quality of the instruction, don’t! Take it while you can, because it won’t be this price again (pioneers take risks, and deserve rewards).
Your instructor is Philip Keay, an innovative transformational educator and university teacher trainer, a motivator, an author and a soul adventurer. A full range of student feedback is here.
You will be learning from Menu for A Spiritual Revolution: Health Harmony & Happiness, Philip’s first published book, and from a range of stimulating supplementary books and videos by various masters of our human world, from Philip’s bank of cutting edge learning resources and materials.
Hear from Philip giving a brief summary of the course.
“Philip is a phenomenal teacher of human language, behavior and psychology.”
~ Michael Guenza, USA
“Philip far exceeded any expectation I had of what a good teacher should be. He asked deep questions which planted seeds of continued self-development in his students.”
~ Oliver Dilley, England
“Ajarn Philip is an exceptional teacher I had the fortune to have taken classes with. He has a special gift in drawing students out of their shells to participate in class, even with a shy and normally reserved person like me.”
~ Grace Dee, Myanmar
“I have grown as the professional I am today because of great teachers like Philip, who allowed me to be myself and encouraged me to follow my dreams.”
~Tatiana Aline Mohler, Brazil
“Philip was a great teacher… I remember him especially as being a superb role model for us to follow.”
~ Samantha Burman, Thailand
“When you discover the joy of learning you discover the joy of living. When you master the skill of learning you master the skill of living.” ~ Philip Keay
Just imagine, for a minute, a different kind of life…
How would you like to be a trusted and valued leader? A mentor and motivator for others? Then first learn the art of self-leadership, self-compassion and gratitude for life.
Would you like to be articulate, socially self-assured in all your relationships, and spiritually connected? Then learn with a teacher whose educational life has been training and inspiring thousands of adult students to master the learning, listening, communication and problem-solving skills.
How would you like to be aligned with your true nature, live with purpose and creativity, and be in charge of your own life, health and destiny? Then learn who you are, how your mind, body and soul work, and how the whole web of life works.
Would you like to have the skills and know-how to express your talents, inner beauty and unique individuality? Then get priceless quality practice in an interactive, heart-friendly, mind-expanding learning environment.
How would you like to undertake, with like-minded souls, a learning adventure of self-inquiry to gain self-knowledge and self-awareness, self-belief and self-worth, and to step into self-empowerment and self-growth? Then get Philip’s prospectus to imbibe the full low-down on his course, and decide if this journey is for you.
Why would you not invest in yourself in becoming one of the students? If you come up with some reasons, are they from the voice of reasonableness, or is it that destructive inner voice that resists making change and holds you back?
In fact, it’s learning about, and being able to override this inner (and often harsh) critic that gives us our self-empowerment.
You get all this and so much more should you enrol on The Complete Course in Self-Empowerment and Spiritual Growth. Just fill in the form below to get the Prospectus and Syllabus sent to your inbox.

“Only a mind and a heart broken up in fragments creates problems.”

A Karmic Truth of Life
We need to understand a crucial, if unpalatable, truism that is never discussed in society, indeed, this is ‘the elephant in the room’:
You are the architect of your problems, conflicts and suffering. You are causing them through your reactions to other people, events, situations, happenings. Not just you, everybody!
However, once you are able to see this ‘elephant in the room’, it becomes tremendously good news because it means so, too, are you the architect of your own solutions.
Everything is UP TO YOU!
Live consciously with courage, confidence, compassion, creativity, curiosity, conviction.
You just have to make sure you are using the RIGHT BLUEPRINT and that you have built the RIGHT FOUNDATION to your life…
Finding your Harmony is your Liberation
Learn the skills and know-how of personal development and spiritual self-growth and you will empower yourself and transform your life by your own endeavours.
Not by being told what to do, not by being told how to do it, but by LEARNING AND DOING IT YOURSELF.
(This is the complete opposite of school ‘learning’.)
~~~~~
When you take charge of your own life, health and destiny like this, the sky is your limit, the world your oyster and the universe your boundary. No longer will you be getting in your own way. You won’t any more be dragged down by society, you’ll be building a much better one.
Life takes on an entirely different hue as a creator, and it’s colourful, sparkling and fulfilling!
~~~~~
Becoming responsible for our own health and wellness is what our business is round these parts, and we do it through the process of ALIGNING OURSELVES WITH OUR TRUE NATURE.
Finding your harmony—your resonance, your sweet vibration, your holistic wellbeing—is your true everlasting liberation from the enslavement of unsolvable, and usually recurring problems, that can bring us so much unnecessary misery and suffering.
To get to your harmony, you undertake a journey of self-inquiry, which leads to your self-discovery + self-knowledge + self-awareness which leads to your self-empowerment + self-belief + self-growth.
It is a tremendous adventure into the inner world of your own being, exploring your mind, body and soul consciousness, and I call it A Spiritual Revolution.
Notice how the whole emphasis is on your SELF. Know your self and the whole world changes.
Building a Solid Foundation
You just need to learn TWO key things, that’s all. And then you achieve your harmony and your soul liberation.
Two things, however, that the schools never taught us, and still today they continue to fail humanity.
Learning these two things builds you an earthquake-proof foundation for your life. Without them, it’s a foundation laid in quicksand.
You need to learn
the skill of learning
how to intelligently feed and nourish your mind, body and soul consciousness.
In becoming a skilled learner, you necessarily master your communication and social interaction skills. In learning how to take care of yourself, you automatically learn how to take care of others, and of Mother Earth. And self-belief and self-confidence come to you like bees to nectar.
You become the intelligent social creature you were born to be.
A fantastic foundation, I feel sure you will agree!
Not hard to learn, for it’s in your human DNA—in fact, it’s a tremendously exciting learning journey—but certainly you will need initial guidance and inspiration from somebody who has done it themselves, thanks to the disempowering, demoralising and dehumanising anti-education schooling that about 99% of us got.
~~~~~
Further down you’ll find out a little about me, Philip Keay, my non-conventional approach to education, and why it should be that I am the one able to help you become the master of your own life and destiny.
Hint: my work as a different kind of educator is inspiring, training and empowering adult students to become autonomous learners and skilled confident communicators. Throughout the course you continuously build up your Toolkit for Lifelong Learning and Conscious Living, which is your essential take-away after the course is finished.
~~~~~
Question for you to ponder on: If you are a skilled learner of learning, and a self-confident communicator, in what tangible ways do you think your life at work, home and play will change?
Forget the Magic Pill, get the Master Key
Does this describe your life:
too many challenges, problems and conflicts, often sapping your energy and vitality?
feeling a sort of ‘disconnect’ that’s hard to put into words?
self-doubt and self-consciousness get in your way?
feeling powerless about the declining health and wellbeing of our troubled human world?
never really able to escape ‘the matrix’, whatever you try?
Well, enough of all that depressing stuff. ENOUGH!
Fix it all. No more despondency, no more despair, no more disempowerment… FIX IT ALL!
Once and for all.
Become the confident, loving, powerful, talented beautiful human being that is your birthright. It’s now or never!
~~~~~
But first you got to stop looking for or relying upon magic pills, silver bullets, white knights, gurus, prophets, miracle cures and all those external ‘solutions’.
They are a false illusion, and in our gut we all know it… seductive, yes, but never transformational for us. The quick fix is never a true fix.
Unless or until you are prepared to do the learning work yourself, you are stuck with this enticing, yet false, answer to that which brings you pain and suffering.
You need the MASTER KEY for your own life:
the one that UNLOCKS your heart, your mind, your soul consciousness, your inner beauty, your innate intelligence and your tremendous power to do good things in our world
the one that ENABLES you to fearlessly express your unique talents, qualities and individuality
and the one which EMPOWERS YOU to take charge of YOUR OWN life, health and destiny.
You also need the right BLUEPRINT
Your schooling gave you the wrong blueprint. Hence we create problems that we cannot solve or prevent.
These woeful, anti-social school systems have led us all to the psychological and spiritual wastelands that have been a catastrophe for humankind.
They give us a nurture that antagonises and stresses our nature, instead of complementing and cultivating it.
INNER CONFLICT AND DISEMPOWERMENT HAVE BEEN PROGRAMMED INTO YOU.
We’ve been living without the skills, self-knowledge and self-belief that we need to make our life one that we are proud of, a life that FEELS GOOD:
one where we can solve our own challenges and prevent problems
one where we can live with purpose, good health and gratitude
and one where our relationships are not on the rocks, but healthy, strong and successful.
~~~~~
So-called experts got our human world into the immense trouble it is in today, so forget about them when it comes to solutions.
YOU are the solution.
You just need the right blueprint and your own master key.
That’s where I come in, and that’s where my - dare I say it myself - uniquely transformational teaching methodology comes in.
The Emerging World of Health Harmony & Happiness
(built on connection and intelligence)
The big evolutionary message of our times—momentous times of turbulent transition—has become clear to keen observers and true spiritual beings.
And even more starkly since the crime of 2020 was unleashed upon all of us.
The essential lesson for each human being to learn for themselves is this:
If you wish to enjoy health and wellbeing, harmonious relationships, and an authentic life of purpose, meaning and reward, you cannot just be looking out for yourself; you must ALSO be working for the greater good of all humankind. This is non-negotiable.
Why? How so?
The two—you and the rest of the world—are mutually interrelated and interdependent, for we are all interconnected with each other and with the whole web of life… if you and I are sailing in a boat, and one of us sinks it, we both go down.
If, in looking out for myself, I harm you or our planet in the process, then I am harming myself too. If I am intelligently and spiritually working for my own health and wellbeing,, it means I am automatically doing the same for all of life.
The parts are the parts, but always they belong to the whole.
According to karmic law and universal intelligence, it cannot be any other way.
Yet, this is not the way that materialistic modern man lives, not at all… which is why we are starved of spiritual nourishment and stuffed with emotional pain >>>
Buddhist wisdom from a monastery in northern Thailand. And in the same way: to respect, trust and love yourself is to respect, trust and love others. It’s all energy flow, and when we understand this, we find liberation from conflict and confusion.
The World of Stress Struggle & Suffering
(built on separation and ignorance)
Poor old humanity!
Trials troubles and tribulations everywhere!
Much pain and suffering!
Much stress and strife!
Woe is all of us!
But why all this chaos and misery?
If we can find the root cause we find the solution.
Then we can build the new world by moving ourselves out of this rotten one.
A Gigantic Misunderstanding
We have all been conditioned by society and the school system to accept a gigantic misunderstanding as the basis of our existence.
This misunderstanding, subconsciously held in our psyche, tells us that
WE ARE ALL SEPARATE BEINGS.
We take as a reality, as a truth, that we are
separate from each other
separate from the world that birthed us
separate from our natural roots
and even that our mind and body are separate entities.
In the process of fooling itself, humankind separated science and religion, matter and energy, cause and effect, and split the past and future from the present moment.
YET… the true reality and incorruptible law of nature, of the divine cosmos, of God, of the web of life, of the whole galactic caboodle of cosmic consciousness, states that:
all organic life and inorganic matter is interconnected and interdependent
we humans are an integral part of the world, not apart from it
the parts and the whole are of the same stuff, not separate, all conjoined by the flow of energy; and it is the flow of energy which IS life.
Worse yet, as a species, we decided we were more powerful, more intelligent and more important than the natural order of things and the rest of planetary life. We usurped God and universal intelligence. This is a terrible arrogance borne from ignorance.
Falsely separating ourselves from each other and the rest of the world like this pits us against nature’s laws of connectivity and wholeness, thereby putting us into a state of almost perpetual stress and inner conflict.
No wonder our human world is on fire! No wonder we feel disconnected and powerless to stop our impending train wreck.
We live in delusion and ignorance of who we really are.
But our disempowerment runs even deeper: not only do we not know who we are, we don’t even know that we don’t know.
As a social creature this ignorance is devastating for our psychological and spiritual wellbeing, leading to unhappy minds and lonely hearts, which then lead us to sickness and disease. We poison ourselves, we poison the world.
This deep misunderstanding of who we are and how life works is the ROOT CAUSE of all our troubles. But the bitter pill to swallow, as we said at the start of this page, is that we are the architects of our own troubled lives, our conflicts, our rocky relationships.
But hold off with the blame, guilt or shame!
There’s nothing wrong with human NATURE, there’s nothing wrong with you or me; it’s the NURTURE that’s gone wrong. We were all given the wrong blueprint for life. We got this faulty anti-health blueprint from our schooling.
The school systems taught us the wrong blueprint because they in turn got it from the gigantic misunderstanding of separation that masquerades as truth and knowledge.
If we could just get hold of the right blueprint for life, then as architects of our own life we can create and build for ourselves a strong foundation to educate and empower ourselves to move into…
