But one night I started reading it for pleasure, and couldn't put it down. What To Do When You're Dead is not only a book that touches your mind through your heart, but your heart through your mind. The riddles I work out with the Source of Being as my interviewee, will inhabit your imagination, enlarge your sense of yourself and the world around you. It will change the appearance of things and the boundaries between other things - like a stranger's body and the soul that inhabit's that body. Think of this book as "Conversations with God" (Neale Donald Walsch, Hampton Rhodes, 1995), but with a woman former atheist, science and technology writer for industry asking the questions. A reader who picks this book up will not sleep when they're supposed to; each page turn will wind the crank of your soul, drawing you deeper and deeper to an inner world of being. This being is that which lives beyond time and space, and dwells with spirit through the spaces between matter's molecular construct.

Carefully organized into historical and scientific research sections, Mind Matter Interaction first takes readers on a historical and cross-cultural tour through religious and spiritual accounts of such things as: levitation, stigmata, teleportation, bilocation, poltergeists, inedia, luminosity, mediumship, fire-immunity, hemography, and materialization and transformation of matter. After reading fascinating real-life examples of such a wide variety of mind matter interaction, the second major section of this book covers research and theory. Containing one of the most thorough reviews of current scientific study into the field of psychokinetic mind-matter interaction, some of the areas covered include: metal-bending, anomalous photography, random number generators, and poltergeists. The third major section of the book covers experiential research and tips for achieving a conducive atmosphere through altered states of consciousness, dissociation from ego identity, suspension of intellect, playfulness, peak emotion, focused awareness, trust in the process, and openness to the experience. Designed to stimulate curiosity and motivation for further study, Mind Matter Interaction opens a series of doors to experiencing the world in new ways. I love the way this book contains just the right amount of information to whet the reader's appetite for learning more. Pamela Rae Heath has created a first-rate psychokinetic primer which should be required reading for every high school and college general studies program. Kudos to McFarland Pub dot com for publishing such a valuable work of historical and scientific significance. Highly recommended! ]]> Fri, 12 Apr 2013 14:49:49 -0700 3045-1258 http://www.ncreview.com/psychic-communication/the-afterlife-of-billy-fingers-how-my-bad-boy-brother-proved-to-me-theres-life-after-death Author Annie Kagan and her “bad-boy brother” had been somewhat estranged their entire life, largely due to his lifelong addictions and sometimes shady lifestyle. A call from the police department announcing her brother’s death may have been unexpected, but his death was not so surprising given that his was a life lived life on the edge. But when Billy suddenly began to communicate with his sister from the afterlife, Annie was surprised, disbelieving, and reluctant to share this news with others. Through a series of cryptic messages from Billy that materialize in Annie’s life (and others), along with the support of a writing group, Billy convinces Annie that she must write this book. The result is this fascinating preview of what happens when we die, one that is both quirky and uplifting. In the genre of afterlife communications this book stands out for many reasons. But in particular, the detailed descriptions Billy offers of his afterlife experiences are ‘refreshing,’ in that they transcend the culturally filtered images we have become somewhat accustomed to, and reveal glorious galaxies of universal awareness and experience. For example: “After our last visit, I was drifting through the Universe, taking in the sights, when a cosmic wind began to circle me like a slow tornado…Then it was like someone pressed the start button on a cosmic projector and the ring became a circular movie that’s still playing all around me. What I’m looking at is very different from any film I’ve seen in a theater, though. First of all, I’m suspended in the middle of the Universe, and second the entire move is playing all at once and the images are holographic…What’s really great is that this hologram has a very special feature…My hologram is expandable. I can follow all the different paths I didn’t take when I was alive and see how they would have turned out. What’s surprising, though, is that it doesn’t seem like one way is more valuable than any others. I don’t have a preference. It’s all fascinating, and I have no regrets.” …“Here, our telepathic communications fill each other with beauty. Speaking of telepathy, I know you’ve sometimes wondered if there’s any music here. There are so many clichés about angels singing and harps playing…well, once again I can only speak for myself. There aren’t exactly any of those things where I am. Here the atmosphere is filled with a soft, ambient sound…There’s a constant background haze that reminds me of earth’s natural sounds, like wind or rain or ocean waves…Recently, I began to notice that sometimes this haze bursts into a little melody and then that melody quickly disappears. This melody phenomenon is happening more and more, and I really can’t say if it’s the sound that’s changed, or my ability to hear it.” Through Billy’s communications and the author’s insightful retrospective, readers are taken on an afterlife journey that is vivid and inspiring. Billy opens powerful vistas of the after-life, which in turn invite deep contemplation and wisdom for the living. And while this is also an intimate (but not maudlin) look at how a brother and sister learn to navigate a connection through the veils, we also come to understand that each, in their own way, becomes spiritually liberated as a result of what might at first glance, seem to be a tragedy. Highly recommended reading. ]]> Tue, 05 Mar 2013 20:12:05 -0800 2251-1239 http://www.ncreview.com/psychic-communication/the-reality-of-esp-a-physicists-proof-of-psychic-abilities In The Reality of ESP: A Physicist’s Proof of Psychic Abilities, Russell Targ shares his comprehensive scientific research to provide convincing evidence that by quieting our minds we can access information in the field of potentiality where there is no distance in space and time. -- Deepak Chopra, author, War of the Worldviews This book, detailing its author's many successful investigations into the paranormal, should make those who deny the possible existence of such phenomena think again. -- Brian Josephson, Nobel Laureate in Physics and Emeritus Professor, Physics, University of Cambridge For decades, physicist Russell Targ has produced some of the most significant scientific research ever conducted on the nature of consciousness. He has demonstrated beyond reasonable doubt that the mind can function without limitation in space and time, and that this ability is widespread, teachable, and practical. The Reality of ESP is an inspiring description of who we really are, and why we should not settle for less. --Larry Dossey, MD, author of Healing Words and The Power of Premonitions Russell Targ is a cultural jewel of our time. He is a pioneer in the field of non-local perceptions with impeccable integrity. His book The Reality of ESP is essential reading for all of us who yearn to know the truth about the universe and get freed from the narrow, small- sighted vision of the world. --Judith Orloff MD, author of Second Sight Russell Targ is one of the most experienced and successful parapsychology researchers of the last fifty years. He writes from the perspective of an insider's insider. And, I regard all that he has to say to be of great importance to anyone trying to understand this very tricky field. I highly recommend all of the books by Russell Targ. --Jeffrey Mishlove, author of The Roots of Consciousness Russell Targ is one the foremost scientists in the world when it comes to parapsychology – and a good story teller too. If you want to know the latest and greatest about our increasing understanding of the psychic side of humanity, this is required reading. --Charles T.

Unless you have your own dialogue with God going on, you can only rely on a subjective assessment of what feels authentic, and what contributes to a fuller picture of how the universe works and why we are here. I was impressed with “A Time of Change” on both counts. I found the information original yet consistent with other well-regarded sources. The answers were not superficial or standard feel-good fare. They provided illuminating perspectives on a wide range of questions we all have probably asked ourselves, like “What is heaven?” “What happens to the spirit of a suicide?” “Can anyone develop telepathy or read the Akashic Records?” “How can we increase prosperity for ourselves and the earth?” Because the book is a transcription of Q&A from Aingeal's live channelings, there's not a flow or systematic narrative thread to follow, although she did group similar answers into chapters like Health, Indigo, Crystal and Rainbow Children, Prosperity, Technology, Our Future Selves, and more. I found a lot of wisdom, common sense and food for thought here, and it makes for very intriguing reading. ]]> Mon, 17 Dec 2012 23:29:42 -0800 2331-1221 http://www.ncreview.com/psychic-communication/the-twelve-layers-of-dna-kryon-book-12-kryon-volume-12 This is a very positive and uplifting view of our future as humans and the part that we can share in our own growth as a species. Yes it may be information that has not yet been caught up with by science but every day the two come closer. Even now the search for the 'God particle' goes on at the CERN facility in Switzerland. Lee Carroll and Kryon make it clear that the 'God particle' exists in our own DNA and our own ability to 'code' the part of our DNA that is pure potential, a potential we can change and shape within ourselves. Quantum physics and spirituality are the same story, told from two perspectives but the story IS the same. The Kryon information that Lee Carroll brings forward can help us all remember our innate power and ability to manifest a future that includes health and higher dimensional heart-based living. It is clear, easy to understand and a beautiful message of hope. E.

JD Messinger is aptly named, for his messages about our essential nature as beings of light and manifestors of the physical world around us are carefully and scientifically reasoned. Armed with credentials that stretch from Annapolis to boardrooms and halls of power around the world, Messinger describes the intellectual, physical and emotional journey that led to his spiritual awakening. His book is a collection of profound and often amusing dialogues with an unseen being that “wrote itself” during eleven days in May. An unusual person by any yardstick, his inquiring mind asked the most challenging questions about the nature of reality, like what is death and what is the purpose of our lives; what is God and how is the physical world brought into existence; how the world of light generates and envelops the world of form. The answers are coherent and never superficial, provoking a lot of reflection on the part of the reader. It is intensely satisfying when you can add another insight to the mosaic of your own understanding of the universe, and this book is full of them. I was reminded of the scene from “Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade” where Indy’s faith is tested as he prepares to step out over a chasm. It is a leap of faith for most of us to believe in a Creator and trust that there is a purpose in our lives. Books like “11 Days in May” are like the sand that Indy threw out over the path to outline the steppingstones across the fearsome void. ]]> Thu, 15 Nov 2012 20:49:15 -0800 2789-1195 http://www.ncreview.com/psychic-communication/11-days-in-may 11 DAYS IN MAY is a stunning work of inspiration and intellectual craftsmanship that could only be created from someone who is Awake. JD Messinger is that unique and rare combination of scientist and visionary. Capable of seeing deeply into both the worlds of form and Light, Messinger has articulated that wisdom in a dialogue format (full of good humor and charming wit), and offered us a breathtakingly clear perspective on our contemporary world. I'm confident this book will stand the test of time, making 11 DAYS IN MAY a classic work of originality, profound insight and unveiled truth. The final paragraph is, in my opinion, a brilliant summary of where we are and where we're going, in terms of evolutionary development: "... the global shift is the convergence of science and faith. Tens of millions of people around the world are awakening to the realization that these two terms are one in the same subjects but seen differently when viewed from inside or outside the box. The Internet has helped the world to realize that you are all one, not just in form, but also in light." ]]> Thu, 15 Nov 2012 01:27:41 -0800 2789-1187 http://www.ncreview.com/psychic-communication/11-days-in-may I absolutely love this book! I've read many books on spirituality but none that were so "user friendly" as 11 Days in May. It's so simple yet profound, it's something I can truly relate to and put to practical use in my life. In my humble opinion, 11 Day in May, is an absolute must read for anyone who is searching for "the meaning of it all" or, who has "given up hope" that there's meaning to our existence. In his dialogue with his true self...his higher self, he asks universal questions and receives timeless answers. In short, 11 Days in May gave me HOPE! Hope because we are all the same, we're all connected...one with God, We all have the answers to our truth within us, all we have to do is listen. ]]> Mon, 05 Nov 2012 19:46:23 -0800 2789-1186 http://www.ncreview.com/psychic-communication/11-days-in-may 11 Days in May literally changed my life. It is a very easy read, yet I found myself stopping after each chapter and contemplating, for I don’t know how long before I could start reading again. The book reads like a conversation with a series of questions and answers in a way that I found myself being walked hand in hand by the author through the labyrinth of my own thoughts to a place of understanding. Then I realized that this simple approach was absolute genius. A key I could use to find answers and diffuse the confusion in my mind and find peace in my soul. ]]> Mon, 05 Nov 2012 04:43:02 -0800
