Dr. Aiken conducted and tape recorded Lectures, Forums and Seminars on Reality from 1955 to 1968 throughout the United States, Canada, England, Africa and Switzerland.  While Reality was uppermost in his thoughts, he enjoyed the theatre as an actor, writer, director, and producer.

Seminars  

Dr. Aiken would dedicate an entire week probing the depths of Reality and Self Identity.  It was a complete immersion in Truth.   Individuals invited to attend these sessions would ask questions on Absolute Reality that Dr. Aiken would answer.  He would  explore  the implications raised by the questions and  bring out a clear sense of Reality, Life, Love, Existence.  Today recorded sessions of Alfred Aiken's original week-long Seminars (presented from 1955 thru 1968) are offered four times per year.  Hillier Press recommends that Seminar applicants be familiar with Dr. Aiken's writings and/or recordings. 

Forums

Forums were two hour talks on Absolute Reality given by Dr. Alfred Aiken in a question and answer format.  The nature of questions asked determined the direction of the discussion.

 Lectures

Lectures were one hour sessions open to the public.  They offered  general        presentations about  Absolute Reality centering on a specific theme.
