A obra:
«Num livro de fotografias que Rolim dedicou a Borges, diz-se que o poeta –
fotógrafo se transmutou, por virtude do seu próprio olhar, no próprio Borges.
Neste, Ulisses Rolim oferece-nos um olhar mais seu, mais pessoal. O olhar de um
grande observador, de um grande curioso, que se expressa, ora com poemas, ora
com fotos. A verdade é que eu não sei distinguir um do outro.»
José Maria de Montells

Zitko, Howard John
Founder of the World University
Zitko was responsible, largely single-handedly, for the creation of the World
University Roundtable, an international learned society that was, some twenty
years later, to create the World University in Arizona and, via its Regional
Colleges, in Africa, Asia and South Africa as well. His vision of education was
ambitious and all-encompassing, rooted in an esoteric spiritual consciousness
which pervaded everything that he did. In his pursuit of the World University
ideal of a global educational establishment transcending national and cultural
boundaries, Zitko was far ahead of his time; many of his ideas concerning
experiential education have since passed into the mainstream contexts of the
non-traditional, open and distance education movements in the USA and
elsewhere. If his pioneering achievement was at times acknowledged more by a
circle of initiates rather than by the public at large, this was a reflection of the
way his ideas had come to capture the mind of a generation to such an extent
that they had ceased to be merely the property of a single individual and passed
into common consciousness.
Born on 26 October 1911 and educated at the Universities of Wisconsin and
California, Zitko entered the Christian ministry in the 1930s in Milwaukee,
Wisconsin, later becoming pastor of churches in Hollywood and Huntington
Park, California. His interest in spiritual matters transcended orthodox
Christianity, however, and he began to become increasingly involved with the
Arcane school of belief, whose chief protagonist was Alice A. Bailey. Other
esoteric spiritual influences acknowledged by Zitko at this time included C.W.
Leadbeater (Theosophy), Max Heindel (Rosicrucianism), Manly P. Hall, Edgar
Cayce, Krishnamurti, Aurobindo and Sivananda. Influenced by these teachings,
Zitko became much involved in Lemurian and Atlantean philosophy, which was
at that time to the forefront of spiritual investigation, and was a leading member
of the Lemurian Fellowship, heading its Midwestern Division. Spurred on by this
research, he produced in 1936 his philosophical masterwork; the Lemurian Theo-
Christic Conception, a complex and extremely wide-ranging work of some
325,000 words outlining in a lucid and cogent manner his credo, and addressing
much that was then at the forefront of spiritual science and esoteric philosophy.
This was presented by the Lemurian Fellowship as a study course during the
1940s, when it attracted many students, and was subsequently revised in 1956
and 1979 before publication by the World University Press. In 1940, Zitko had
followed the Conception with the publication of An Earth-Dweller's Return, the
edited unpublished manuscripts of the spiritual master Phylos, part of which
had been published in 1884 by the medium Frederick Spencer Oliver as A

542
Dweller on Two Planets. These Zitko also made available to the public, initially
through the Lemurian Press and later through the World University Press. He
was later to author Democracy in Economics - Streamers of Light from the New
World, World University Insights and New Age Tantra Yoga.
Zitko's productive activity was crowned in 1946, when, inspired by the recent
foundation of the United Nations, he addressed an audience of educators and lay
members on the winter solstice at the Echo Park Women's Club, Los Angeles,
outlining the establishment of a world university on a world scale with a world
programme that would further the cause of world peace and understanding.
From that meeting a board of thirteen trustees was formed in Los Angeles,
resulting in the incorporation of the World University Roundtable in California
on February 24, 1947, as a non-profit religious, educational and charitable
corporation that would work towards the furtherance of the World University
vision. Of these thirteen, comprising spiritual leaders, educators, naturopaths
and others, Zitko was the last to survive, although his colleague Dr Norman
Walker was to live to the age of 108. It was this board that inaugurated the Los
Angeles Section of the World University in 1948 with forty instructors and a
diverse curriculum; however, the section was to founder for lack of funding and
suitable space a few years afterwards. The World University movement thus
created was to be described as the "Grandaddy" of all such experiments by Dr
Robert Muller, former secretary-general of the United Nations.
In 1950, the erstwhile First Lady, Eleanor Roosevelt, endorsed the World
University, praising its world peace initiatives. With a mind towards expansion,
Zitko oversaw the creation of the World University Association of Schools, which
was to embrace numerous worldwide institutions in the succeeding years. The
concept, partly born of financial necessity, was that in each country the
university would grow from the grass roots rather than according to a
centralised plan; in this way existing schools would affiliate to the World
University and in time work towards Regional College status. In 1952, adherents
in Buenos Aires published a four-page informative bulletin about the World
University and distributed 10,000 copies; this complimented the University's
own bimonthly journal, eventually entitled Liftoff, which continued in
publication for 56 years from 1947 until its last issue in May-June 2003, bringing
news of the World University to its many adherents around the globe. From 1947
onwards, an Annual Conference was organised in accordance with the
Roundtable constitution, initially at the Roundtable headquarters, then in
Washington, DC from 1967-75, but subsequently expanding to take in locations
in Europe, Asia, Africa and Latin America. The 1970 Conference was held
simultaneously in Nigeria, the Netherlands and the USA; after this Conferences
took place in, amongst other places, Brussels (1992), Rome (1993), England
(1996), Bali (1997), Korea (1979, 1990), India (1987), Canada (1984), Puerto Rico
(1994), Germany (1995), USA (Los Angeles, 1976, Oregon, 1977, Texas, 2000) and

543

St Lucia (2002). The 2003 Conference had been scheduled for Arizona, but was
pre-empted by Zitko's death. It was perhaps these Annual Conferences, which
brought together educators from around the world that were the supreme
demonstration of the strength of support for the World University movement.
The organization of the Roundtable proceeded with the appointment of Chief
Delegates in each country in which there was representation (that total rising to
more than 80 countries by the close of the twentieth-century) and the formation
of national offices in those countries beginning with India in 1987 and succeeded
by Nigeria and Ghana in 1991, Italy in 1992, Argentina, Greece, Bulgaria,
Luxembourg, Bangladesh and others. Membership was by invitation; with each
Chief Delegate invited to nominate individuals of considerable distinction in
their fields for the award of the Cultural Doctorate in their discipline, which
honorary award then brought these individuals into the work of the World
University. In addition ordinary membership of the Roundtable was open to
those from all walks of life who wished to support the endeavor. In time the roll
of the Cultural Doctorate membership was to grow to several hundred,
embracing educators, spiritual and political leaders, business people, writers,
artists, musicians and others. One of the last recipients was the Governor-
General of St Lucia, Dame Pearlette Louisy. In India, the members of the
Roundtable were so numerous as to merit the creation of the "Indian Alumni of
the World University" under the chairmanship of Dr J.J. Bennett in 1988; the roll
of this organisation stood at 88 in 2001. Its activities have included the reprinting
of Liftoff in Indian languages, the sponsorship of essay competitions, and the
involvement in political, social and humanitarian projects throughout the sub-
continent.
In 1958, the World University Roundtable offices moved to Huntington Park
from their former location in Hollywood and Burbank, in consequence of Zitko's
appointment to a new ministry there. He was to hold this appointment until
1964, when he devoted himself full-time to the work of the World University.
1962 had seen former US President Dwight D. Eisenhower advocate a World
University in an address to the Confederation of Organizations of the Teaching
Profession in Stockholm, Sweden, and as a result the World University received
banner headlines in the Los Angeles Times. In 1964, Zitko and the World
University organized a move to Arizona, where two years later they reached an
agreement with the Horizon Land Corporation to relinquish six hundred acres
leased from the State Land Department. Once it had become clear that a
substantial campus was now a real possibility, the Roundtable trustees organized
the new incorporation of the World University itself in Arizona as an institution
of higher education on December 21, 1967, having registered the Roundtable in
Arizona in 1964. This represented a fulfillment of the original aims of the
Roundtable conceived some twenty years earlier, thus creating a twofold

544

organization comprised of a spiritual arm (the Roundtable) and an academic arm
(the University). 1967 also saw the publication of Michael Zweig's "The Idea of a
World University" (Southern Illinois University Press) in which the World
University was given honorable mention.
In 1969, after surrendering the lease on their previous land, the World University
purchased a complex of buildings in Tucson, to which was added a library,
which was to be the University's home until 1985. That year saw the purchase of
the University's present home, the 80-acre Desert Sanctuary Campus at the foot
of the Rincon Mountain Range near Benson, Arizona, and two years later, once
the move was complete, the Tucson campus was sold. The Desert Sanctuary
Campus had originally been used as a yoga ashram and a school for
disadvantaged young people; now it was adapted for the World University with
the conversion of its nine buildings to provide offices, visitor accommodation
and a substantial library. The library building came to house what is arguably
the finest library on esoteric and spiritual science and related subjects in the
world, consisting of some 25,000 books, manuscripts and other resources,
together with theses that had been submitted for the cultural doctorate. 2003 had
seen a successful restoration project completed on the library building. The
campus, which is of outstanding natural beauty, also features an Olympic-size
swimming pool.
Zitko was to make the campus his home; he received visitors from throughout
the world there, and together with a small staff of volunteers administered the
business of the World University without salary, funded by donations and by the
trust that he had established to support the University in perpetuity. Chief
among this staff must be mentioned Zitko's devoted Secretary, Dr Jill Over way,
an expert in yoga also resident on the campus, who typed and prepared each
edition of Liftoff and handled much in the way of communications, latterly
including messages from around the world via email.
The activities of the University expanded to encompass a substantial publications
arm during the 1970s; as well as Zitko's writings, it published works of literary
criticism, child development, poetry by the acclaimed Canadian poet Stephen
Gill and the autobiography of impresario Irwin Parnes.
By the 1990s the World University was ready to initiate a series of Regional
Colleges, beginning with the North American Regional College (housed at the
Desert Sanctuary Campus) in 1998. This college published a prospectus of non-
traditional experiential and spiritual studies leading to certificate and diploma
awards, with forty-four faculty members drawn from around the world.
Although all courses were offered by distance learning, some on-campus
instruction also took place, and in 2002 programmes leading to the award of a
research doctorate in association with Zoroastrian College were made generally

545

available (from which programme Dr S.S. Walia was the first to graduate in
Energy Science, following a thesis on the therapeutic qualities of solar energy). In
the following year, the Design, Technology and Management Society initiated
the South African Regional College in Ladismith, although this was to cease
affiliation in 2002 following a change in management of the DTMS. This was to
be followed by the South East Asian Regional College (the World Association of
Integrated Medicine in India), the West African Regional College and World
University Computer Center (Nigeria) and the Zoroastrian Regional College (the
Zoroastrian College, India). At the time of Zitko's death, Queen's University,
Bangladesh (the largest private university in that country) and the Daya Pertiwi
Foundation, Indonesia, were in the process of seeking Regional College status.
Some twenty or so schools and other organizations, whilst not achieving
Regional College status, were affiliated or associated with the World University;
these included to name but a few, the University for Human Goodness in North
Carolina, USA, the Vidya Yoga Free University, Brazil, Ansted University, British
Virgin Islands and Malaysia, the International States Parliament for Safety and
Peace, the International Association of Educators for World Peace, the Academy
of Ethical Science, India, and the Mandingo Academy, New York, USA. Other
institutions had formed affiliations with the World University in earlier years,
including notably the Parthasarathy International Cultural Academy, India, the
Academia Superiore di Studi di Scienze Naturali e Psicobiofisiche Prof.
Ambrosini - Diandra International University and Academy, Italy, Brazil, Spain
and USA, and the World University of Intercultural Studies, Bulgaria.
A website was set up by the World University and Roundtable in 1998, and in
2001 this registered 45,784 hits. After the September 11 attacks, the number of
hits snowballed from an average of 1,800 per month to an astonishing 12,959 in
the month of those events, suggesting that a wider audience was turning to the
World University in times of crisis.
Each winter solstice from 1956, commemorating the tenth anniversary of the
foundation of the Roundtable, was designated World University Day and
formed the focus for an outpouring of worldwide messages to the Desert
Sanctuary Campus, sharing in telepathic rapport with the ceremony conducted
there. 2002 saw an unprecedented demonstration of support, with many
messages from around the globe producing what Zitko described as a "stream of
love divine". In his own words, "there never was a greater conviction among
all...that the World University was linked with a Higher Authority, cognizant of
the dedication expressed by all those who have made the commitment to support
the vision which underlies the New World Civilisation of "Light, Love and
Power." The ceremony had included the Affirmation of Djwhal Khul the Tibetan,

546
a Message of the Master Phylos and Zitko's own keynote address delivered
earlier that year at the Annual Conference in St Lucia.
Zitko was a man of imposing presence and energy, and his spiritual qualities
became quickly apparent in any discourse. He was generous with his time and
encouragement and was an entertaining and thought-provoking correspondent,
sending his review of the year's events as a Christmas gift annually. His
humanity and warmth were witnessed by the many friends he counted
throughout the entire world, making the Desert Sanctuary Campus a focus for
those who sought an educational and philosophical ideal that transcended
temporal boundaries. One rarely exchanged ideas with him without leaving with
a renewed faith in human nature. He is survived by his three children Lenodene
Muriel, now retired, Terel, owner of the Landmark Furniture Store in
Cottonwood, Arizona, and a spiritual teacher, Beth Ellen, a professor at
Winthrop University, South Carolina, and his granddaughter Tiffany, a medical
student at North Carolina State University.
In answer to the question of how he maintained his faith in the World University
in the face of what was at times significant opposition, including at one point a
death threat against his person, Zitko replied simply, "Serve as selflessly as
possible with your eyes on the stars and your feet on the ground, and let the
result take care of itself."
