Memorial website in the memory of your loved one

     This site was created in loving memory, tribute, inspiration and rememberance  across the conventional concepts of time and space known on the physical plane as the spirit named in this lifetime as Richard.  
      You touched literally hundreds of us as a teacher and hypnotherapist,  facilitating desired change though just one part of your legacy -- through both your creation of Holographic Hypnosis and through your Futureshaping Technology.  Those, including international clientele, you guided and trained in your particular specific multiple award-winning type of hypnosis, moved on better for the time and the experience with you.  Your creative talents facilitated positive growth in others both as a teacher and through inspiration in responsibility to the planet and its inhabitants.  You gave formal trainings in the techniques of communication excellence, telephone skills and peak performance to businesses and organizations of all sizes.  Using the Holographic Hypnosis and Futureshaping Technology you developed, you trained hundreds of future hypnotherapists for the Guild and IACT.  Your system of hypnosis is able to be duplicated by anyone and with those you have worked with who have gone on to influence positively others who influenced others and so on in an ever widening circle.  
     Prior to your involvement professionally with hypnosis and NLP (neurolinguistic programming), you were an accomplished artist using oils/a creator using wood and metal plates.  You wrote poetry and several novels as well as books for children and turned your creative vent as you grew toward fulfillment to technical books on communication skills including telephone skills and then Holographic Hypnosis .  Your novels were a acknowledged  tribute for your ability to bring together several seemingly unrelated plots masterfully into one story.  Your skill as a writer was especially formally recognized when you won a fellowship to the Creative School of Writing at Columbia University and your creative talents were formally recognized when you were accepted at Westbeth in New York City as a young man, one of 300 to live there of the 5,000 applicants.  
     You walked your talk and talked your walk, true to your self!
     Born in Brooklyn, NY, USA on 18 September, 1946, raised in New Jersey, living as an adult mainly in upstate NY and for a time in California, New York City and elsewhere, Richard's soul departed his physical being finally during this incarnation on 12 August, 2003 at his home and sanctuary in Woodstock, NY.

=============================================
 
Since Richard loved to watch movies, it is fitting he epitomizes to this site's sponsor the scene from the movie "Tuesdays with Morrie"  with Jack Lemmon (Touchtone Pictures)
 
As they are leaving Morrie's graveside, Mitch reflects:
 
"Have you ever had a special teacher, one who taught you things you may not understand but he never gives up, knowing that some lessons takes a lifetime to learn?"
 
That was Richard and still is as those who met and knew him continue to learn from life's "lessons" he helped us to negotiate.

-------------------------------------------------------
The story behind photograph number two in his photo album on this memorial site is now posted under the legacy section of this site.  It was posted so Richard's message to me of proof of survival of the soul/energy or whatever one terms it will be known to all who visit here.  The photo lets all of us know how close our loved ones who are no longer in a body are to us.

-------------------------------------------------------

Richard, you were much, much more and greater than the sum of all the component parts (hypnotherapist and true leader in the field, artist, writer of technical material on communication, hypnosis, novels, childrens books and poetry, Dad, healer, teacher, etc.) of your lifetime here amongst us.  In addition to master teacher, you were a true and cherished special friend to those of us who wished to interact with you on a personal basis.

You  remain in our thoughts and prayers forever!

A special prayer:



***********************
If you are not viewing three column as you scroll down, the site design is cutting off the one on the right as it does most of mine. 
Please scroll to the right and scroll down.  Among other items there you will see a place to light a candle(s) for Richard.  It takes less than five minutes.  Compared to what he gave to us, what little bit is that?  So, please at least light a candle for him and to at least light the way for the rest of us. 
Sharing your memories will also be appreciated if you can find it in your heart.
Thank you.  
From the sponsor of this site.

***********************

Richard loved to help people and I am hoping the visitors to the sites about him will help you appreciate how great his gift and how much his love.  There was a change in his demeanor and voice when he would shift into this role, which he did automatically after so many clients almost without notice.

His legacy
Isms  

All hypnosis is communication.

All hypnosis is self-hypnosis.

Hypnosis is an extremely powerful tool to aid you in achieving your personal goals.

Holographic Hypnosis™ is client based and you, the seeker, are in complete control.

All change is self directed.

There is no one who cannot be hypnotized.  There are only facilitators (the hypnotherapist) who lacks the necessary skills.

About Manifestation and Reincarnation of a Most Important Relationship..


How well I remember Juli 1 1994 in upstate New York a truly  pivotal time and place in my life.  Several things were rapidly changing beyond my abillity to control.  Career wise the changes appear to bwase where I was employed being dissolved this was my last day in my favorite job.  I would start new employment the following week.  However I sensed the move would not be in my best interests.  The lawyer whose employ I would be leaving  was extremely was extremely busy and I frequently was the contact between the client many of whom would be Family Court or dissolving a marriage and their  attorney for whom I worked.  I had asked for that last afternoon of working for him to be unused vacation time and worked very late the previous nights to ensure that his move to a new office location and my time off would not be waylayed.

A registered nurse friend who worked as a substance abuse counselor for many years had scheduled a meeting to interview a trainer who lived about an hours drive from where my friend and I lived.  "Come on it'll be fun" she assured me as we started the approximately 50 mile countryside drive to the the trainer's office.  I one were to ask I was sure the leaves on the trees that Juli day had changed to spectacular autumn hues of sunshine yellow with some flaming reds and greens interspersed.  On the way to  the appointment I learned my friend who was  driving had for a long time wanted to learn hypnosis to use with appropriate clients.  She had selected three different trainers that she was checking out to determine who she wished to learn from.  She felt that this training might also be of interest to me.  Besides I was the only one she knew "crazy enough"to do this.

Walking through the tori gate and up the path through the Zen rock garden complete with an artificial pond and gold fish singing fern and other oriental items I seemed to leave my earthly concerns behind me.  All I know is that I recognized something or someone else when I saw the interaction between Richard Zarro and the woman who had brought me there.  When he finished greeting her he came to me invaded my space something I would not normally tolerate) and said "hi".  Eyes lower left I was speechless.  Since he had an appointment elsewhere he left us to meet with his associate.  That very brief interaction with this truly unique and remarkable man was the beginning of my journey down this new path and included only in part how I interacted with life.  Upon my friend and I leaving this magical place, the woman who had given me a ride there said to me, as we got into her car, she would check out the other two programs and we could decide from there.  She never heard me say, "If I was going to take the basic hypnosis (always having been fascinated with how the mind works), it would be from this particular trainer".  Eventually my friend agreed that she would take her training that Fall from Richard Zarro and his associates.

At the time I took the certificate training, I envisioned a new lifestyle and. and, yes, even a new me.  Most of the things that I envisioned have come true, including such mundane things that I envisioned as improved health, maintaining my weight for several intervening years at approximately fifty pounds less (in 2004 it is 66 pounds less) than when I took the training, getting an article published in Unlimited Human, making my fledgling business my sole support, etc.   As a result of private training with Richard, I have met some truly amazing people people such as a world class astrologer who taught me the basics of natal (birth) chart  [the the potential we come into this incarnation with] interpretation.  I have seen this insight gained work with  others whose charts I have prepared  and have shown the seeker some of the basics of their ability to control within the Universe what occurs in life and at the very least control their reaction to it.  I have seen aura (which I did not believe possible to learn) and other extraordinary experiences too numerous to recount here.

Because of some extraordinary events that occurred the second weekend oof the Basic certification training, Richard and I talked in the hallyway briefuly at the end of the training about paths to reach your goal.  At that time, I thought my question had to do with extrasensory perception "via" such as the Tarot cards, clairvoyance, astrology, etc. to reach the desired information.

Toward the end of that conversation, Richard heard me telling him that control had always been an issue for me.  I thought that pronouncement would be a revelation to him.  He kindly did not remind that "we all give away our issues".  In retrospect, I realize that my standoffish actions for the entire time of the training  had been telling this unmistakenedly to him. 

It was approximately two weeks before I had let go of enough of my own ego to tell this man most off what had occurred within in me during the two weekends as we progressed through the training as a result of a "chance encounter".  He quietly reminded he is not a guru and that all we are capable of, including change, comes from within and the client is in total chaarge.  This remarkable individual uses hypnosis and communication skils to teach life's tools.  As a result of this telephone conversation, I set up a private "session" with Richartd so I could experience  a hologrpahic cleaning",  techniuqe
