He was the one who taught me how to make a postulate and it forever changed my life. His approach and technique were very simple and easy to understand…and lots of fun, too!

I was very new to Scientology at that time and I remember thinking that this was just one of the things Scientologist were able to do. I was shocked and surprised when I later had a 2D who was an executive and had just returned from doing OT4 at FLAG and had no idea of how to make a postulate…even challenged my ability and made me prove I could do it.

What he taught me was pure magic and every success I have had in life stemmed from that single basic concept he imparted in his seminars…absolutely the best $50.00 I ever spent!

I was familiar with his nutritional success and yet, by reading this post, I can see he was so much more.

Yes, he did find out his old company was purchased by Clorox (not Nestle) which was something he never wanted to have happen.

Glad to hear he left such a good impression with you. If your interested, his old store in LA and website vites.com sell his version of calm which is now called Magnesium Supreme under the label of Peter Gillham’s Life Essentials – it even has his photo on it.

Peter conducted these courses personally, so I had the pleasure of meeting him. To this day, I still use his product “Calm” and although the product is owned by another company, I still have a label from the original “Natural Calm” bottle with Peter’s name and picture on it, that I keep hanging on my vitamin shelf in my kitchen. Peter has definitely left a lasting impression on me.

I recall back in the 70’s that my own father had great respect for your Dad.

Janis there is no doubt that you are your father’s daughter. How lovely to see the photos of your Dad with kids and grandkids. I even caught a glimpse of Doreen, may she rest in peace.

Both your parents were loved and beloved by those who knew them. It is so wonderful that your Dad had 93 years on this earth to share with us all and make a difference.

Blessings and prayers to the Gillham family.

Reading Janis’ books and Steve Cannane’s book too, show how the Gillham’s changed how Scientology history played out.

Incredible tribute to Peter Gillham.

Through the years, I had the pleasure of working with him several times. I was always aware of the love and care he had for his family, and how he perservered, staying true to his own principles. He was a man of integrity, and courage. I am proud to have met him. If there was any claim to “royalty” within our group, and anyone wanted to claim a stake, Peter would be one to claim a position.
Thanks for this fitting tribute.
My sincerest thanks for allowing us all to participate. I know he was well loved.
