Author, Poet & Philosopher
"If only my mind was weighed in gold the world I could feed and clothe"
Renowned for abilities that transcend conventional understanding, he is redefining impossible, a magical and forward-thinking Visionary. He has appeared on BBC, ITV, SKY, and various radio networks. He co-hosts the podcast “The Allens Investigate” with Shona Allen, exploring a wide range of fascinating and unconventional subjects. A fascinating exploration of all things hidden.
Contrary to recent worldwide newspaper reports he doesn't claim to be a psychic, but does claim to have powers beyond rational scientific understanding. Powers which we can all access if we only knew how! The likes of Keats, Shelley, Blake, Bacon, Da Vinci, Plato, Chapman, Marlowe, Shakespeare and many more understood the real power of the mind. Musicians, artists, poets and philosophers throughout history have all found the key. Proving it is easy, its comprehension is not.
'He nor that affable familiar ghost which nightly gulls (feeds) him with intelligence' Sonnet 86 William Shakespeare

The Truth is simply astonishing!

Ronald Bailey close friend of late actor John Thaw and actress Sheila Hancock interviewed by Russell Hewitt and shortly before he died in December 1996. He discusses our astonishing meeting and his personal view of myself.


A Remarkable wedding Tale
If fate doesn’t exist, the Allens’ love story is the exception.
In 2002, Gary Allen saw one photograph of Shona—never having met her—and instantly knew the future: their engagement on 14th February 2003, their wedding on 23rd April 2004, and even that it would be a televised medieval ceremony. Acting on this message, he bought a ring, booked flights to Edinburgh, and prepared for their engagement at Rosslyn Chapel. With only weeks to spare and no contact between them, destiny intervened. Shona called him out of nowhere: “I know you’re going to marry me… I saw it in a vision.” Exactly as foretold, they became engaged on Valentine’s Day and married on St George’s Day—two people who had never been on a single date, guided by a future they had both already seen.
Their astonishing journey, sparked years earlier by a chance message to a stranger on a train, is told in Gary’s book In Search of the Swan.
You would not believe it was even possible but the couple are living proof of fate and destiny.

The Cockney Bard's Philosophy
I am not religious - Are you an atheist? No, I believe in God. But you said you are not religious? I am not. My God is nature. It is in all and in everything and God is as good a name as any, to describe a sublime intelligence, something we cannot possibly understand, but can only be in awe of!
I have burnt my fingers in the writing of truth. I have worn my mind to borders of madness in its quest. But I would rather burn the soles of my feet with the fires of hell than let a liar bring me down. Indeed I would.
The human being is capable of great emotion, of great depths of depravity, of great feats of heroism, stoicism and damn right stupidity.
The world is full of mind numbing depravity to acts of great love. Mankind reaches from the beautiful to the most abhorrent. In the making of a human being from a child of innocence, to an adult of love or hate we are to define humanity as neither a substance of love nor hate, but a voluminous mixture of both.
Today I have reached a monumental milestone in my life. I am to wonder what, where and just who am I? And I am to realise I am but a mere grain of sand in an enormous egg timer.
Give me rational and reasoned argument and I will listen. I will give you rational and reasoned argument but will you listen? I will question you, will you answer me? You will question me, I will answer you. Does that make me better than you? Or you better than me? Is your truth more worthy than mine? My answer is all truth is worthy. We as human beings just need to know when it is found!
Nature & the animal kingdom show a great intelligence, even an insect in fear of its life pretends it is dead shows great intelligence. Often Mankind seems to think it is the only creature with any intelligence, but having spent a good many years observing the said creature known as Mankind, I doubt intelligence even touches the lives of many of them.
Love the purest of all emotions. The greatest of all sins is mankind's inability to find it.
Sometimes the pain is too hard to bear. But in bearing it, you show others you care, and in caring, you are showing love, and in showing love, you conquer spite. And that makes the pain more bearable. Indeed it does!
Funny thing life with its many joys, many despairs, many regrets, many losses. All we can do is enjoy the good parts, look forward despite the rough parts and try to find the strength within to cope in our darkest hours. We cannot always have love without loss, or pain without considerable suffering, but what we can have is the certainty the sun will rise and fall, night will follow day and love will always be the manifestation of everything good about life.
I was taught, I gave others my teaching, I questioned not. They questioned not. They believed, I believed, that my teaching was just and true. Suddenly the world was full of people who questioned not. In a world of those that questioned not, the teaching became a truth and from that truth spawned the many of misunderstood. The misunderstood were those who never questioned if, what and why?
The deeper you have to think, the greater the philosophy is!
Plato once said - “Strange times are these in which we live when old and young are taught in falsehoods school. And the person that dares to tell the truth is called at once a lunatic and fool.” Despite centuries coming and going, countless great men and women, living and dying, numerous wars that were worthwhile or otherwise, and endless books. How times have changed not!
What I have observed with some human beings is if it doesn't fit their way of thinking, truth becomes rather unimportant.
