Glenn Wayne Trede
San Diego, CA, has given the world many notable individuals, but few have traversed as unique and inspiring a path as Glenn Wayne Trede. At the tender age of 17, when most young men grapple with the turbulence of adolescence, Glenn embarked on an extraordinary spiritual voyage by joining a monastery. He deeply immersed himself in the science of yoga meditation here, amidst the serenity and disciplined regime. This period was not merely an escape but a foundational phase that equipped him with a conscious awareness of our oneness with the divine essence.
Glenn embarked on a profound spiritual quest at 17, immersing himself in a monk’s disciplined and contemplative life. Within the serene confines of a monastery, he dedicated three years to practicing yoga meditation, seeking to develop a conscious awareness of our oneness with God. This experience, profoundly impacting his worldview, laid a strong foundation for the resilience and introspection that would characterize his later pursuits.
Life, however, had its plans for Glenn. At 21, shortly after leaving monastic confines to explore the world anew, he met with a devastating motorcycle accident. The incident left him with brain trauma and two broken femurs, turning his world upside down. The subsequent six years were a period of physical and emotional turmoil as Glenn oscillated between various part-time jobs – from a security guard to an aircraft parts inspector and shipper. Despite the hardships, these experiences were not without their lessons, teaching Glenn resilience and adaptability.
