Rosie McKnight
Rosalind McKnight has always had an inquisitive mind and an exploratory nature. She gives her parents, Tim and Hester Buck, credit for helping her to get “bitten by the travel bug” early in life. Having eight children did not stop her parents from taking a yearly two-week vacation to some distant corner of the country. After she visited every state in the United States, she set her sights on Europe. She attended business-college in Dayton, Ohio after high school. When she graduated, she became a volunteer for an organization that assigned her to Switzerland and Germany.
Then journeys turned to the inner vistas of the mind-education. She graduated from Manchester College in Indiana, majoring in Peace Studies and Sociology. She became a youth fieldworker, traveling throughout Ohio for four years, working with the youth of 52 churches. Feeling that she needed further education, she attended Union Theological Seminary in New York City, where she earned her Master of Divinity degree.
For two years she worked as a counselor at The Sloane House YMCA in New York City and then moved to Virginia, where she met Robert Monroe. This led her in a new dimension of explorations. Robert Monroe, founder of The Monroe Institute, was doing exploration and research into practical methods of accelerated learning through expanded forms of consciousness.
Rosalind became one of Robert Monroe’s Explorers in 1972 and worked with him for the next eleven years doing extensive research in his laboratory. During the time Rosalind was working with Robert Monroe, she was a part-time instructor at Blue Ridge Community College, Central Virginia Community College, and Virginia Western Community College. She taught courses in extrasensory perception, parapsychology, and death and dying. She also founded the Creative Living Institute and became its director, sponsoring conferences and seminars throughout Virginia on various personal growth topics. In her natural exploratory style, Rosalind also led tours to Great Britain, Europe, and Central America.

A few years ago, Ive translated Rosalinds’ book Cosmic Journeys into my native language (Polish). In 2007/2008, my translation has been oficcially published in Poland, with my introduction. In 2008/2009 – I wrote my own book, containing explorations of the nonphysical concepts and a lot of nonphysical fun. I’m translating my book into english, but it will take time… but is it possible to arrange an introduction for my book, made by Rosalind? what informations/samples do you need to proceed?
Get in touch with Amelia Walton at the Institute.

thank you.
I did as you said (24th March; now we have 4th April). Since then – no e-mail confirmation, no response, nothing.
By the way – could you upload more sessions from the Explorer Series? There are only 24 from 32 known to me, but I would be also delighted to listen even more from IMEC series, these are very inspirational type.
I had the privilege of getting a personal response from Rosie after writing to her and then meeting her duiring my Guidelines program at TMI. She is very down to earth and has a great love for all people and animals. She is a true Earth Angel. Love and Light, Carol Ann
Christopher,
The remaining recordings from the Explorer Series are ready to post. We just haven’t gotten around to it yet. So the best thing I can say is . . . coming soon!
You might try contacting Amelia.Walton@monroeinstitute.org again and see if she can get you an email address for Rosie. I’m not really sure if Rosie does email. But who doesn’t these days.
Hi,
Nice to hear the next Explorer Series recordings, thanks. By the way, will it be OK. if I add in the Explorer Series comments section – a link to my version of digitized text transcripts? Having visual impairment, I often digitize documents, to use them later on the computers (text-to-speech and translation purposes), and a few months ago (just after the purchase) – I scanned and OCR’ed the whole set (500 pages of transcripts). I also would like to have your formal permission to work with the polish translation of it; perhaps it could be reedited and published as a book (exploratory sequel to Cosmic Journeys?), or perhaps it could be managed on Creative Commons Licence (BY-NC-ND); what do you think?
Amelia Walton – still no response. Mailing software said that the e-mail delivery was succesful. Anti-spam software problems? I’m not certain if Rosie uses e-mail communication, even if she has an active e-mail. I wouldn’t be surprised if not.
