Larry Byram
Obituary
We are sad to share with you the news that Larry Byram passed away peacefully in his home on December 21, 2025, of aggressive liver cancer. Larry passed four days after his diagnosis and requested that news of his cancer and passing be delayed at least 3 days after his death to minimize distractions as he left his body. We waited until after Christmas to share this news.
Larry died at dawn on the Winter Solstice, when the light starts to expand every day. This seems like a fitting passage for someone whose life was dedicated to expanding Light—quietly, steadily, and without pretense—in everyone he met.
Larry affirmed the Life, Light, and Love in every person he encountered, the essence of our humanity. For him, love wasn’t something special to be bestowed upon someone. Love was the recognition in others of the love we all share – not an idealized love but one of presence, joy, strength, vulnerability, alignment, purpose, and commitment. He affirmed in each of us our Beauty, Truth, and Goodness.
When asked about his biography, Larry talked about the importance of his life purpose, his Authentic Life Expression (ALE). Everything else, he said, were only personality details. The trajectory of his work began when he was 18 years old and started to read the Alice Bailey books, which he read three times through by the time he was 25. His collegiate studies were focused on making organizations more efficient and effective. In doing so, he discovered that he first had to help people align themselves so they could build better organizations. Thus, with the writings of Alice Bailey as a foundation, along with decades of observation, practice, and refinement, the Institute for Spiritual Partnership, Alignment Technologies, and Higher Alignment were developed.
Larry developed his own program, called Higher Alignment, to identify and understand the creative energies of people and their interactions with each other. He was a natural teacher, a prolific writer, an individual and relationship coach, and a spiritual advisor. Larry lived in service to his Authentic Life Expression, as well as his personal growth. His choices, time, and resources were dedicated to the expansion of his work. His deep commitment serves as a model of what it means to live in alignment with one’s purpose.
So many people have assisted Larry in developing and expanding this work, and he so appreciated everyone who stepped in to share this journey. Like many others, I met Larry when I went to Higher Alignment for a Profile Party. Higher Alignment and Larry were unlike anything I had ever experienced, and I knew that night this was a place where I belong. Knowing and studying with Larry has changed my life immeasurably.
After years of working with Larry and supporting Higher Alignment, I will be leading our Higher Alignment team to preserve his voice, make his work accessible, and ensure it continues to serve those who seek it out. We will continue to post Larry’s writings on Substack. Recordings of his classes are available for purchase on Thinkific, our new educational platform. We are also developing a new Higher Alignment website where you will be able to find extensive information about the 15 Compatibility Factors, Motives, Attractions, Relationship Skills, and Authentic Life Expression. Other possible projects down the road may include an AI Chat Box and an online Creative Assessment process. (We also dream of having AI organize and catalogue the 10 terabytes of Larry’s writings. Ha!).
Through his work, Larry touched the lives of thousands of people. We know many of you are feeling this loss with us. We are heartbroken and deeply grateful—for his life, his generosity, and the clarity he provided so many.
In lieu of flowers, we invite you to purchase one of Larry’s recorded classes, upgrade to a paid Substack subscription, or make a direct donation. Your contributions support the ongoing care of Larry’s legacy and help us preserve his body of work, keeping it accessible and maintained with integrity for years to come.
You are invited to join us for a Celebration of Life for Larry Byram in late January, which will be held on Zoom. Details will be shared via email, the Higher Alignment Substack, and Larry's Facebook page. We welcome your memories, photos, and comments:
In Life, Light, and Love, and with wishes for a gentle New Year,
Sandy Jaquith
& the Higher Alignment Team

From a Fellow Sage to a Departed Sage . . . It was a real honor and pleasure to know Larry and learn from him. Larry was one of a kind, and I so admired his abilities! I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to be in his presence for all the years we were together. I lost a good friend and mentor of so many!!! His Tribe!
As a retired Air Force Senior Colonel pilot who flew cargo and fighters around the world with three years in Vietnam . . .
I never really fully understood the value and meaning of “Self Authenticity” – Being truly me my way . . . understanding the value of BEING AUTHENTIC FROM WITHIN . . . and LIVING A TRULY AUTHENTIC LIFE Style 100%.
He helped me to further discover and define just who is Bill Carpenter from the inside out . . based on what I had to offer.
Under his supervision, I had the honor and privilege as as fellow Sage to teach others about Larry’s work.
My Bottom Line – HE MADE A DIFFERENCE IN MY RETIRED LIFE.
I even wrote a #1 Amazon Best Selling Book, “Free to Be Me My Way” and acknowledged Larry’s influence in my life.
THANK YOU, LARRY: FOR WHO YOU WERE AND
WHAT ALL YOU HAVE DONE FOR OTHERS. . .

I was sorry to hear of Larry's passing. What a light being he was and he had a great gift to the community. I first started doing the classes with Larry back in the late 1990's and into the early 2000's. His work was enlightening, especially around relationships. I learned a lot from his work. May he carry on and make a difference on the other side. He will be missed and he was a blessing to so many lives.

Having read most of these and just finishing the zoom celebration of life it's really comforting to feel in community with such diverse and heart centered group of souls. I can reflect many similar stories of being seen and feeling a part of something special when being around Larry.
I like to tell people Higher Alignment is like having a cheat code for life since everything is essentially in relationship with others. When I moved away from Boulder it became apparent how much one leans on the HA community. We need that language to connect communicate share and even heal. It's just not easy to find people who can relate and understand once you have "drank the cool aid".
Many of you know Chris (affectionally "Crystal Chris" for me) well her sister Lori, joined me (divinely) in Larry's care when he got home from the hospital. Things moved fast and without Sandy's speedy orchestration and the communities help stepping up, we couldn't have done as well as we did! It wasn't easy and it wasn't hard; it was just what needed to be done. I was happy to be in service to someone who was in service to humanity on such a grand scale.
Who knows why the stars aligned that I was there, but it was a pretty special and sacred gift, a moment I won't ever forget and easily the most profound experience in my life. I didn't know all the intricacies of death and dying or how Larry wanted to transition but he shared some requests and more info came in from Chris and Sandy. Lori had great intuition in the moment. and together we figured out what to do. Not Lori's first rodeo but it was mine and she was such a great mentor! There are moments I wish were on video and you could see Lori and I in the throes of what should be a horrible experience, yet we are laughing and giggling and all poking fun at each other including our dear Larry! In fact, the more we played and teased each other the more connected he was with us, a true Sage, a comedian and wizard till the end!
After his passing I finally had time to open the book Death, The Great Adventure, by Alice Bailey and I can happily say we 100% provided the type of experience Larry was looking for. From the orange lights, the candles, to the frequency music and even the eucalyptus scents in the room it was a truly sacred and peaceful transition. I would encourage others to read this book as well.
We all have a date with destiny, and I'm beyond grateful Larry showed me not to be afraid in his last moments and previously in the hospital saying to me "you can do anything" that was not just inspiring but went directly to my heart and soul in a way I just don't have words.
Feeling lucky to have crossed paths with Larry and you all!

For me, Larry was like many other spiritual channels. What came through him was simply amazing. And his personality was quite flawed. I believe this flawness is what each individual that comes in to do this kind of work creates on purpose so that the work stands alone rather than people worshiping who it comes from.
I have been using for 30 years what he shared with me in the two years I hung out with him. A lot of people have benefited from my understanding of compatibility factors and most specifically the Michael teachings.
Though I rejected him as a friend after his silly behavior around money I'm grateful for this soul choosing to help bring in what he did.
It's was fun for as long as it was.

I met Larry in 1972 in high school. He’d recently transferred to public school and was “new.” I remember the first conversation we had, he was sitting behind me in Chemistry class, and I think he said something first, so I turned around. He was different from most boys at that age. He went by “Jim” through the rest of the year in school. Great chess player. He found my girlfriend, later first wife for 29 years, Connie, intriguing. (She was and still is.)
He was enigmatic; you rarely knew what he was thinking, and fascinated when you found out. An introvert myself, I sensed he was too. I was and am a linear thinker; he was a bigger picture thinker. Even then he saw relationships and patterns. He took some kind of multiple choice exam one time for some academic competition in high school, and when I asked “how was the test,” he laughed and said, it was okay, and told me his strategy: Answer all the questions you know, then answer B for all the others. He had intuited that the B answers were more likely correct, because of the psychology of the testing process and what he observed with the answers that did know and answered on it. He reported it worked – the majority of the B answers he marked that way were right!
Some highlights that I remember well from our time as kids and young adults: (1) driving insanely on the beach at night, doing crazy donuts, until the tire went flat, lucky he wasn’t arrested, my mom called the tow truck; (2) living at our house in Imperial Beach during a conflict with his parents; (3) although having turned vegetarian, he nevertheless taught me the best way to grill a steak (I still use it); (4) watching The Exorcist in San Francisco, both of us deeply affected; (5) taking me to a coffee house there, where I joined up with a duo to play piano on stage, just off the cuff, he had that “go for it” encouraging spirit; (6) he urged me to move from mainframe to microcomputers and basically got me my first job at Onyx, Inc., in that field in 1982 – we worked together – changed my life; (7) a couple of big parties at his beach house, and a couple more intimate meetups, too, in 1983-1984.
And occasionally kept in touch after he moved to Colorado; even met up in D.C. once for a really long conversation at lunch. (Yes, I remember a single lunch with Larry Byram in the 1990s – who wouldn’t?)
My mom, one of his biggest fans, and I, received a copy of his huge book when it was in near final draft form. What a monster amount of work and insight went into it. I’m delighted to read posts here from people whom he and his work have helped to improve their relationships and lives. BTW, I’m think-act-feel, which serves me well, except sometimes it blinds me to options and other people – as he told me.
Shocked, frankly, that he is gone, and I’ll forever remember him.

I met Larry Byram in the early 2000's. His presence filled any space (even thru internet calls) with calm warmth and laser like clarity. He and Tom Faggiano helped me and my husband navigate what could have been less than successful marriage issues. Happy to report, with their support, we shifted gracefully into much more productive & joyful ways of being in a few sessions. He/they later helped me work thru significant "aging parent" issues; again with tools and compassion working with equanimity thru the entire process. He will be missed and well loved in every memory.
February 28, 2026
We met Larry Byram back in 1998 in Boulder, CO area. My 'new' boyfriend, now husband, and I, went on one of our beginning first dates at one of his relationship classes. (It was my suggestion...or rather test of who exactly was I dating here. lol.) My beloved and I just celebrated our 28th year of being together and 21st year marriage. (I was only 21 years old when we started out.)
We still to this day, do inquiry in what we are aligning with as in a 'Act, Feel, Think' person and so forth. Larry was a really loving, thoughtful, person who WANTED you to win at life.
His method actually was a tiny bit *concerned (lol) for our relationship's wellbeing because we were so opposite, but as life had it those opposites were exactly each others medicine BECAUSE he taught us how to value all parts, not just likeness.
Larry, we know you can *hear all of us and see how deeply loved you are when in-body and now beyond! Thank you for being an instrumental being in our great relationship storyline. All our love.

What a wonderful chapter in my life; to share times with Larry in classes, HA gatherings, potlucks and more. Thank you for the dedication to your ALE and sharing all the HA wisdom with me, and my family. Your presence touched our lives profoundly. Jeannette

What a force of nature! I met Larry at a profiling party hosted by Sarah Hodapp back in October of 2017. The insights he provided for myself and my wife Connie were spot on. I then had the marvelous benefit of being able to work with Larry and Sandra on the Higher Alignment website for a number of years up until about mid 2024 and finally had Larry do a session for me last August. I really regret not doing a follow up with him-- but in many ways I feel like it's easy to connect with him as needed through Sandra and many others as well as my internal intuition. I'm a Transcendental Meditation Siddha and have been enlivening my inner world and suspect Larry is there :)
February 23, 2026
A truly selfless being. I will miss our connection and the laughs we shared as well as his presence and support. I always felt he had my back even during the ebbs and flows of our relationship and that meant more than words can say.
February 23, 2026
I remember when Larry first started teaching in the late 80's, we gathered in a beautiful residence in the hills of Marin. I will never forget the experience of those evenings as about 8 or so of us sat all lined up in a row facing Larry, and as he began speaking this amazing energy of love and acceptance washed over us in the most powerful way. I felt like he had picked me up and set me down someplace blissful I had never been before.

I am so surprised to learn right now at 10:30 PM EST February 22, 2026 that my dear friend Larry Byram passed December 21, 2025 I have so many memories with Larry Byram as a friend and a coach and a teacher, I’m not sure where to start but I would like to just say his wisdom, his insights, his coaching, his empowerment was always a complete delight along with his laughter💜🙏☮️ I’m trying to remember exactly when I met him, but I think it was during the 80s when I was living in Marin at one point I think several of us with Larry were designing a very creative outside the box seminar for some corporations. I loved his whole chart about the different ways that people tick in relationship. I connected with him again in the early 2000s. I wish I had had more time to explore his different platforms, but he was living in Colorado and I was living in Marin , and then Maui and then Sonoma County California. I would love to stay connected with this network and meet new friends here. I remember Larry used to always say wear your colors. You’re so bright and beautiful. Shine your light. He was just so empowering. God bless you, Larry wherever you are in the universe. May you always be blessed and thank you for everything that you’ve shared and everything you gave to us. Namaste.
February 22, 2026
Thank you Larry for being such an inspirational, influential teacher and coach for so many, and for me. I learned so much of great value under your tutelage over the years. Beauty, Truth and Goodness… Love, Light and Life… I will miss you greatly but am deeply heartened to know we will surely meet again on the other side of the veil when the time is right. Godspeed on your next adventure my treasured friend. 💜🤗💜

I feel the human grief of letting you go, and yet I feel your presence living on — in every teaching, every space, and every heart you touched. As the founder of Higher Alignment, you opened doors for me and for so many others — to awareness, to belonging, and to the truth of being seen.
You were a teacher, a guide, a father-like presence — steady, gentle, and profoundly felt. Through your work, I learned not only how to live with greater compassion, but how to parent from that place as well — honoring each child’s creative uniqueness, staying present, and trusting the deeper truth within them. Your teachings will continue to guide me.
Through you, I learned to honor my compassionate nature and to transform it into loving essence. I carry your transmission forward in my work and in the way I move through the world.
I miss your laugh. I miss your quiet strength.
I am honored to have known you, and I will see you in the spirit world.
You truly were a beautiful human.
Love you

Larry, you are the reason I moved from Oakland to Boulder in January 2004, in order to take your classes – all of them! Your teachings have changed my life and helped me so much in understanding myself and others more deeply as we evolve and grow. Your kindness, brilliant insights, and acceptance of everyone always made me feel included, and allowed the teachings to sink in far deeper than the words you spoke.
I did a lot of typing for you as you “downloaded” the information which became the voluminous handouts for each class – writings so extensive not even I could keep up with reading all of them. But that didn’t matter, because you embodied the essence of your message and I will always remember you for that.
I was honored to be with you the last night of your life, giving your caregivers Lori and Patrick a much needed break from their 24-hour-a-day vigil. I told you how much your Higher Alignment teachings meant to me and that I use them every day. I love you and will remember you forever, this lifetime and the next. My greatest and dearest teacher, we will recognize each other when we meet again.
A couple weeks later, I came to your apartment to help Chris and Patrick pack up the hundreds (or thousands) of crystals you arranged in special energetic patterns all over your home. I took this photo of the crystals that were on a table by your head during your last days, communing powerful crystal energy to you and guiding you on your way.

i attended Larry's class on co-dependence at a time when i needed the introspection tune-up. i was skeptical at first but Larry was sure to say, "i'm not a guru, this isn't a cult". i gained a comfort with his material that he was guiding people through his own studies and even if you had your own disagreement with one part or another in general it was still so inspiring to watch Larry walk the class through his mastery of himself, humanity, and building alignment with existence itself.
in a way i'm now not so surprised that by chance i ran into someone i was loosely connected with over Larry. it was on christmas eve so if anything for me it holds like Larry is like a buddhist master who holds governance even in the afterlife and as though his energy affected that chance meeting at that exact coincidence of me holding the door for my mom and he was on the other side of it.
i'm sorry that i did not get to share more of how much Larry was an impact to me or i know that i had tried certainly but it's now to fully say what an absolute inspiration he was and will be for my life in how he chose to dive into measuring it fearlessly.

Larry thank you for your immeasurable impact upon my life. Thank you for your mentorship - your teachings and example will continue to grow through me, expand, and touch all that i do and am. On a personality level, I sure do miss you! On a spiritual level it feels joyful and inspirational to know you are continuing to refine and expand your work to contribute further and ever expand your life service. Thank you for your service. Thank you for your contribution. Thank you for your dedication. May we meet again. In Life, Light, and Love, Mandy

Words just feel so inadequate to describe the man, and how he helped me in so many ways. His teachings had a profound effect on me, and on my work with people. I was so blessed to have been with him the day before his passing, when I got chance to really tell him what an amazing teacher he'd been to me. "Oh wow" he said. I'm so glad he heard that. I pray that Larry's work continues with the rest of the Higher Alignment team as it is a priceless gift to humanity. Love you Larry
December 28, 2025
The depth, meaning and gift of Larry's life and teachings are so clear and truly written in every one of these tributes so I can simply say 'ditto!' He touched our lives and our world in such a profound and powerful way and he will live in my heart and with my spirit until next we meet.
Thank you sweet and beloved Master

I met Larry on October 1, 2000 at the Boulder Depot--a free intro session. Wow! He could read energies--and the volunteers resonated with what he was saying. New to me!
For several days before learning of his passing, I had been looking at a 6-page handout Larry gave me and other class members on Feb. 12, 2001, titled "Balancing Defensive Energies": his handouts and teachings and example have continued to be of huge value to me.
My whole way of looking at the world, life, myself, and others has wonderfully changed, thanks to you, Larry.
With gratitude forever,
Lindy

Larry,
Kyle and I still think of our time with you and everything we learned in our time with you. Your work and energy continued to vitalize us all of these years. And continues to. You remind us how to be. To settle. To look. Listen. Thank You.

Dear Larry,
Lots of feelings on hearing the news of your passing. I'm sorry that you're gone! I will miss you and your sense of humour, your profound insights and mentorship.
I can't put into words the immense gratitude I feel for everything you've given me and for your contributions to this world.
I have lost a good friend, as the world has lost a good friend, yet we've gained a most beautiful ancestor.
The gift of being seen, in the way that you offered, is one of the things I will treasure most, along with the very clear investment you had in my wellbeing and life path. To think you offered this same investment to hundreds or thousands of people is affirming indeed.
I found these flowers today and the bright orange reminded me of you.
Sending all my love to you and many blessings for the continued impact of your work. We carry you in our hearts.

Larry passed last Sunday. Lindsay (on the right) passed in September.
They were friends and ardent students of Alice Bailey/DK. Larry read all Bailey books (over 20 dense books) 3x, between 18 - 25, and Higher Alignment grew from there.
Lindsay's mind was incredible, as was her knowledge of the Bailey work and beyond!
These two Bailey scholars taught 5 classes together on how the Bailey work integrates with Higher Alignment.
When Lindsay passed, HA offered their 1st class as a tribute for Lindsay, and I'm sharing it here as a tribute to them both.

Such gratitude and love to you both on this next part of your great adventure...

Larry’s work made such a difference in my life. As a result of what I learned from him, I radically changed my approach to dating and relationships. Since I made these changes, I have been in a happy, stable partnership for close to 12 years (after a lifetime of terrible, difficult relationship escapades).
Thank you, Larry, for making such a difference for me.

Dear Larry,
Thank you for seeing me more deeply and clearly than anyone ever had, on the first night we met. Thank you for showing me the beautiful possibility of creatively aligned relationships. Thank you for your unparalleled growth guidance. Thank you for helping me understand who I am not, so I can be who I am.
Your ability to see people was a rare and precious gift that will continue to touch lives far beyond the death of "Larry".
May we meet again in your next incarnation. Your wisdom of relationships, creativity, and triadic spirituality will continue to illuminate my life and work in the world.

I met Larry approximately 1992 at an ISP gathering. A short while into the meeting, Larry used my girlfriend and I as an eg for the relatively straightforward comparability system that I imagine was foundational for later work. You nailed our Dynamics, particularly my being divergent and Jeanne convergent, and we were sold.
Not all that long later, Andy and I became business partners with Larry and Michael in GISTICS, and we were off to the races, learning the frameworks and systems Larry channel and they co-developed.
So much more I could say and maybe I will at some point.
I've been on a path of personal growth, relational, dynamics, wisdom, development, and supporting others in their growth ever since.
Larry, thank you for being one of several incredible teachers and catalysts for my living truer and supporting others to do the same.
I still reference the fundamental compatibilities and Michael system work in my work, and that's over 30 years old!
I'm imagining you ecstatic soaring into the infinite and being with all the spirits and energies that you naturally danced with on this side.
Soar on bright light

Larry's life and teachings forever changed my life for the better. You will be missed, remembered and celebrated!

Dear Larry, I am heartbroken… Your voice and your wisdom live on in my heart, and I return to them often, ever since we first spoke in 2013. I know you are now a shining bright star, one I will find each time I look up at the sky. You will be forever loved and remembered. I am grateful to Kavita and Praveen for bringing you into my life.

My heart weeps the passing of this wonderful Being! Yet, my soul hears the jubilant celebration of the Hierarchy of Light as he returns to the universal vastness. He was true visionary and teacher who helped so many find and live their highest purpose. In tribute to his light and love, from the Upanishad: "Self is every where, shinning forth from all Beings, vaster than the vast, subtler than the most subtler, unreachable, yet nearer than breath, than heartbeat; Eye cannot see it, ear cannot hear it, nor tongue utter it; only in deep absorption can the mind, grown pure and silent, merge with the formless truth. As soon as you find it, You are free; You have found yourself; You have solved the great riddle; Your heart forever is at peace. Whole, you enter the whole. Your personal self returns to its radiant, intimate, deathless source". Blessings on your journey Larry!

✨ The Man Who Taught Me to Love All of Me ✨
This is a tribute to my friend, my mentor, my teacher—Larry from Higher Alignment 🤍
Larry didn’t just teach personality profiling… he taught permission.
Permission to fully accept ourselves—the light and the dark.
Permission to stop fixing who we are and start understanding who we are.
Through his work, I learned that our patterns aren’t flaws.
They’re information.
They’re wisdom.
They’re invitations to compassion instead of judgment.
What Larry shared changed my life—and the lives of so many others.
It helped us soften.
It helped us stop fighting ourselves.
It helped us remember that wholeness doesn’t mean perfection—it means acceptance.
Imagine the world we’d live in if we all accepted ourselves exactly as we are.
Light. Dark. Human. Whole.
Thank you, Larry. Your work lives on through every life you touched

In sadness and shock of Larry’s passing. His deep wisdom teachings gave me immeasurable spiritual insight through the vehicle of his many classes I took.
