About the author

Don Horsfall, MBA, Life Coach

Don has had a lifelong fascination with people and has always been driven to understand the world in which we live. From his early twenties, he has studied human dynamics.

Don enjoyed a successful twenty-five-year career in banking, mostly in human resources, including four years as head of employee relations where he gained invaluable insight into unlocking human potential. He then embarked on a twelve-year entrepreneurial career, founding Australia’s largest and most successful residential conveyancing business, with a passion for creating a unique community of people who shared his vision.

During that period, for over a decade, Don helped facilitate emotional healing workshops, where his skills as a life coach helped thousands of people reach their potential. His desire to know more about universal wisdom led him to teacher and mentor, Dr John Demartini, whose lifelong passion for unlocking the secrets of the Universe inspired his desire to write and share this story, which outlines many of Dr Demartini’s unique concepts, in the hope it will light a spark of inspiration in others.


Foreword, by Dr John Demartini

Have you ever questioned your life’s direction, wondered about your purpose for being here or why you have had to go through and endure what seemed to be emotional hardships? Have you ever found yourself repeating the same patterns and behaviours, stuck in a cycle, attracting the same drama in your life? If your answer is yes to any of these defining questions, The Empyrean Quest has come to your awareness for a reason.

Author, Don Horsfall, has been a student of mine for many years. His life demonstrates an unending thirst for knowledge in the area of human development. During one of my intensive ten-day courses in Houston, Texas, Don was struck by a desire to share some of the life-changing concepts we were discussing. The Empyrean Quest was the result of that spark of inspiration.

Whilst this book has been crafted as an engaging work of fiction, the compelling storyline has, throughout its pages, thoughtfully threaded universal laws that exist all around us and affect every aspect of our lives. The irony is that these truths are known by very few.

As you take this journey of discovery, I am confident you will find it thought-provoking, confronting and challenging to many of your previous, or possibly entrenched, beliefs. For many, it will hold valuable clues to leading a liberated, emotionally balanced life, revealing critical insights that shape our very existence.
